This stunning South Loop townhome just got a full-scale renovation, proving that smart, pre-sale updates are the secret to maximizing resale value. This project, now proudly part of the Cabanilla Design Collective portfolio, showcases the expertise of Melinda Cabanilla, our very own Chicago interior design wizard specializing in home renovations for resale. Our design team had a blast revamping this 4-bedroom, 3-bath beauty in Chicago's South Loop.

This master bath remodel consisted of combining materials that would work with the existing floor tile that was to be saved. Contrasting elements from the darker tile accent border, to the wenge vanity cabinets, and to the mixed-metal fixture schemed proved to be a functional and compact retreat for the homeowners.

This project consisted of remodeling an existing master bath and closet. The owners asked for a functional and brighter space that would more easily accommodate two people simultaneously getting ready for work. The original bath had multiple doors that opened into each other, a small dark shower, and little natural light. The solution was to add a new shed dormer to expand the room’s footprint. This proved to be an interesting structural problem, as the owners did not want to involve any of the first floor spaces in the project. So, the new shed was hung off of the existing rafters (in a sense this bath is hanging from the rafters.) The expanded space allowed for a generous window in the shower, with a high window sill height to provide privacy from the back yard. The Strasser vanities were a great value and had the desired finish. The mirror frame and center shelves were painted to match the cabinet finish. The shower can easily function for two, allowing for their busy morning schedules. All of the fixtures matched nicely in a brushed nickel finish.

This luxury primary bathroom showcases a masterclass in space optimization, proving that a challenging attic footprint can be transformed into a functional oasis. Every inch of the sloped roofline has been strategically utilized. Nestled perfectly into the low knee-wall alcove, a custom open wooden shelving unit and a woven laundry hamper maximize vertical storage without encroaching on the room's footprint. A sleek light-wood vanity anchors the room, paired with a large wood-framed mirror that amplifies the room's brightness. A seamless walk-in shower with a frameless glass door tightly hugs the ceiling slope, featuring a built-in recessed wall niche to keep essentials organized and off the floor. Anchored by large-format gray slate floor tiles and a striking feature wall of vertically stacked handmade white Zellige tiles, the design delivers ultimate high-end functionality while preserving a clean, clutter-free Scandinavian aesthetic.

The Hall bath proves that every inch of this San Jose family home was customized. The luxe green vanity, finished in Cedar Path, is decorated with champagne bronze wall mounted fixtures and sleek matte black cabinet pulls. Impressive double bronze medicine cabinets add to the modern mix of metals and deep gray hexagon tile keep this popular bathroom bursting with character.

Downsizing doesn’t have to mean compromising. This master bath remodel proved to be quite the opposite. The homeowners’ wish list was actually exceeded. Wish we could say that for every project! Not only did the new design accomplish the generous his and her vanities and large shower they desired, but we were able to achieve a semi-private water closet by incorporating a tall armoire, providing extra storage as a bonus. Some aging in place features were added without detracting from the beauty. The finished room feels spacious and bright. Crisp white cabinetry, warm counter tops, and gorgeous tile are inviting and relaxing in this hazy retreat. Matt Villano Photography

A historic Spanish colonial residence (circa 1929) in Kessler Park’s conservation district was completely revitalized with design that honored its original era as well as embraced modern conveniences. The small kitchen was extended into the built-in banquette in the living area to give these amateur chefs plenty of countertop workspace in the kitchen as well as a casual dining experience while they enjoy the amazing backyard view. The quartzite countertops adorn the kitchen and living room built-ins and are inspired by the beautiful tree line seen out the back windows of the home in a blooming spring & summer in Dallas. Each season truly takes on its own personality in this yard. The primary bath features a modern take on a timeless “plaid” pattern with mosaic glass and gold trim. The reeded front cabinets and slimline hardware maintain a minimalist presentation that allows the shower tile to remain the focal point. The guest bath’s jewel toned marble accent tile in a fun geometric pattern pops off the black marble background and adds lighthearted sophistication to this space. Original wood beams, cement walls and terracotta tile flooring and fireplace tile remain in the great room to pay homage to stay true to its original state. This project proves new materials can be masterfully incorporated into existing architecture and yield a timeless result!

This home is a little something special. Located in Stock Farm, it the heart of Old Town Bluffton, this home melds traditional elements of a Lowcountry home with a contemporary twist. Traditional Lowcountry color palette on the outside, modern, clean and sleek on the inside. This home proves that melding design styles is not only possible but produces beautiful, and livable, results.

This home was transformed from small closed spaces to wide open areas perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The old kitchen had very little counter top space and was designed to work well for only one person. The old kitchen was isolated from the other areas of the home. For a family with teenage children that like to partake in the duties of cooking this was an unfit kitchen. A wall was taken down that allowed for a larger kitchen, an island, lots of counter top space and expanded views to the rest of the public areas. Now cooking and sharing meals proves easier and more enjoyable for the whole family. The island has become a hub where homework, conversation and sharing takes place.
