An existing client approached CI to update the living room fireplace wall and powder room in his new high-rise condo along the Chicago River, but once we began designing his excitement led him to commission a complete renovation. He wanted a space that was markedly modern but also warm and inviting.
The fireplace evolved into an enthralling feature wall that instantly draws visitors into the home. Translucent quartzite stone stretches from floor to ceiling, floating in bronze channels at the fireplace and surrounded by custom mahogany shelving. LED flat lights backlight the whole grouping to a showstopping glow.
