A fresh take on traditional style, this sprawling suburban home draws its occupants together in beautifully, comfortably designed spaces that gather family members for companionship, conversation, and conviviality. At the same time, it adroitly accommodates a crowd, and facilitates large-scale entertaining with ease. This balance of private intimacy and public welcome is the result of Soucie Horner’s deft remodeling of the original floor plan and creation of an all-new wing comprising functional spaces including a mudroom, powder room, laundry room, and home office, along with an exciting, three-room teen suite above. A quietly orchestrated symphony of grayed blues unites this home, from Soucie Horner Collections custom furniture and rugs, to objects, accessories, and decorative exclamationpoints that punctuate the carefully synthesized interiors. A discerning demonstration of family-friendly living at its finest.

A restaurant that has been around for more than 20 years, Rebecca's was given a fresh new look to enhance their romantic date night ambience by bringing in classy, tailored, and hip features. A smoky blue envelopes the whole interior and it accented with custom woodwork, adding dimension to the walls. The existing bench seat backs were reimagined with a luxurious and velvety chenille in a channel tuft pattern for a lofty aesthetic and all chairs were repainted in a charcoal, translating that smoky look from one area to another. On the main wall, we hung unique mirrors with brass detail to give the woodwork by Paradigm Custom Woodworks more meaning and to reflect light throughout the dim-lit space. Greenery is strategically placed in multiple spots for a fresh, organic vibe as it adds a pop of color, and the new drapery was installed to fuse into the design and carefully frame the windows and entry. The counter area features an installation utilizing their house wines as art. In the private sector of the restaurant, a funky geometric woodwork accent wall is made to add dimension and play with a custom graffiti mural created by local and renowned artist, Sebastian Ferreira. To balance out the many textures in this room, Fine Arts Designs installed concrete-look commercial-grade wallcovering which sits behind a custom neon sign for social media moments. Out in the patio dining area, we brought Cuban textures in with the use of black and white encaustic tile which play nicely with the new South American Walnut butcher block tabletops.

Northfield, IL kitchen remodel has an open floor plan which allows for better daylight dispursement. Defining the kitchen, dining, and sitting room space by varying ceiling design and open cabinetry makes the rooms more spacious, yet each space remains well defined. The added skylights in the hall gave natural light in the interior hallway as well as down the lower level stairway. The updated closets and baths use every inch wisely and the visual sight lines throughout are crisp and clean. Norman Sizemore Photography
