Bathroom - transitional bathroom idea in Orlando

Beautiful French inspired home in the heart of Lincoln Park Chicago. Rising amidst the grand homes of North Howe Street, this stately house has more than 6,600 SF. In total, the home has seven bedrooms, six full bathrooms and three powder rooms. Designed with an extra-wide floor plan (21'-2"), achieved through side-yard relief, and an attached garage achieved through rear-yard relief, it is a truly unique home in a truly stunning environment. The centerpiece of the home is its dramatic, 11-foot-diameter circular stair that ascends four floors from the lower level to the roof decks where panoramic windows (and views) infuse the staircase and lower levels with natural light. Public areas include classically-proportioned living and dining rooms, designed in an open-plan concept with architectural distinction enabling them to function individually. A gourmet, eat-in kitchen opens to the home's great room and rear gardens and is connected via its own staircase to the lower level family room, mud room and attached 2-1/2 car, heated garage. The second floor is a dedicated master floor, accessed by the main stair or the home's elevator. Features include a groin-vaulted ceiling; attached sun-room; private balcony; lavishly appointed master bath; tremendous closet space, including a 120 SF walk-in closet, and; an en-suite office. Four family bedrooms and three bathrooms are located on the third floor. This home was sold early in its construction process. Nathan Kirkman

Specifically, Aly says it was critical to have adequate storage space in her small IKEA kitchen. “We were limited for storage space due to window placements and the overall layout of our house,” she says. “So my design wishes were to get rid of our previous upper cabinetry and the cabinets over the peninsula. I also wanted a microwave that was not over the stovetop/range area.” To address this, Aly changed out a tall cabinet next to the refrigerator that had made the original space closed off. While there is storage space above the refrigerator, this also opened up counter space between the refrigerator and corner sink area. The base cabinetry flows onto the opposite side of the kitchen with ample storage space inside the peninsula island. The panel dishwasher on the opposite side of the range also blends seamlessly with the look of the IKEA cabinetry. The wide peninsula provides a lot of countertop space as well for meals and includes seating for up to three people. Meanwhile, the open shelving provides a decorative touch while providing space to hold bowls and pitchers, for example. To accommodate her microwave request, they moved it to the pantry area of the kitchen, she notes. The look is completed by pendant lighting over the island and recessed can lighting throughout, as well as the previously mentioned natural lighting. Aly offers advice when remodeling and installing an IKEA kitchen on your own. “Advice I would give to future IKEA kitchen remodelers is to get a solid and well thought out design idea first,” she says. “Also as you begin to install, don’t be afraid to change some elements if you think they aren’t how you wanted.” “That’s how we installed our project and we absolutely love our IKEA kitchen!” she concludes.

This remodel of a mid century gem is located in the town of Lincoln, MA a hot bed of modernist homes inspired by Gropius’ own house built nearby in the 1940’s. By the time the house was built, modernism had evolved from the Gropius era, to incorporate the rural vibe of Lincoln with spectacular exposed wooden beams and deep overhangs. The design rejects the traditional New England house with its enclosing wall and inward posture. The low pitched roofs, open floor plan, and large windows openings connect the house to nature to make the most of its rural setting. Photo by: Nat Rea Photography
