This bold and imaginative dining room design is a celebration of color and texture. A dramatic raspberry red ceiling and built-in bookcase library wall set the tone, while the impressive chandelier crafted from layers of pink glass discs leads the artistic aesthetic, infusing the space with glamour and vintage charm. Furnishings include velvet diamond-quilted dining chairs in a soft mauve hue for plush comfort, a traditional wooden dining table for natural warmth, mustard gold draperies add a regal layer of contrast, echoing the metallic undertones of the brass-legged seating. Hand-painted tree murals introduce an ethereal touch, creating a transitionally designed room that is equally suited for reading, intimate dinners or grand entertaining.

Download our free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW This unit, located in a 4-flat owned by TKS Owners Jeff and Susan Klimala, was remodeled as their personal pied-à-terre, and doubles as an Airbnb property when they are not using it. Jeff and Susan were drawn to the location of the building, a vibrant Chicago neighborhood, 4 blocks from Wrigley Field, as well as to the vintage charm of the 1890’s building. The entire 2 bed, 2 bath unit was renovated and furnished, including the kitchen, with a specific Parisian vibe in mind. Although the location and vintage charm were all there, the building was not in ideal shape -- the mechanicals -- from HVAC, to electrical, plumbing, to needed structural updates, peeling plaster, out of level floors, the list was long. Susan and Jeff drew on their expertise to update the issues behind the walls while also preserving much of the original charm that attracted them to the building in the first place -- heart pine floors, vintage mouldings, pocket doors and transoms. Because this unit was going to be primarily used as an Airbnb, the Klimalas wanted to make it beautiful, maintain the character of the building, while also specifying materials that would last and wouldn’t break the budget. Susan enjoyed the hunt of specifying these items and still coming up with a cohesive creative space that feels a bit French in flavor. Parisian style décor is all about casual elegance and an eclectic mix of old and new. Susan had fun sourcing some more personal pieces of artwork for the space, creating a dramatic black, white and moody green color scheme for the kitchen and highlighting the living room with pieces to showcase the vintage fireplace and pocket doors.

HGTV Designer Emily Henderson partnered with Curbly bloggers and homeowners to style their master bedroom. Emily's infallible style is an effortless mixture of midcentury and eclectic finds. Emily wanted to give the Curbly house a light, airy feel, so she dressed the windows with the stunning Blinds.com Roman Shades in a crisp white.

The expansive common spaces include a 15' long dining table, open kitchen and living room with multiple seating areas. One of our favorite components of this project was the lighting, especially the custom neon chandelier we partnered and designed with a local neon artist. Suspended from the grand 30' vaulted ceilings, the tubular light sculpture floats effortlessly above the expansive dining table. Clinton Perry Photography

The clients wanted a positive and uplifting design that embraced vibrancy and color. I selected a few neutral furnishings for the main pieces of furniture including a solid walnut dining table, and linen ivory sofa as foundational pieces, and mixed them with colorful artwork, rugs, and accessories to give the clients a happy home retreat they would enjoy for years!

Based on other life priorities, not all of our work with clients happens at once. When we first met, we pulled up their carpet and installed hardy laminate flooring, along with new baseboards, interior doors and painting. A year later we cosmetically remodeled the kitchen installing new countertops, painting the cabinets and installing new fittings, hardware and a backsplash. Then a few years later the big game changer for the interior came when we updated their furnishings in the living room and family room, and remodeled their living room fireplace.

This was a dream project! The clients purchased this 1880s home and wanted to renovate it for their family to live in. It was a true labor of love, and their commitment to getting the details right was admirable. We rehabilitated doors and windows and flooring wherever we could, we milled trim work to match existing and carved our own door rosettes to ensure the historic details were beautifully carried through. Every finish was made with consideration of wanting a home that would feel historic with integrity, yet would also function for the family and extend into the future as long possible. We were not interested in what is popular or trendy but rather wanted to honor what was right for the home.

This dining area is a great example of mixed finishes. The open display shelving ties the room together with each unique piece and truly makes for a personal, stand-alone space. Photo Credit: Normandy Remodeling
