Claremont Dream Home
A Single Family New Construction
Chicago, Illinois
Type: New Construction
Location: Ravenswood Neighborhood, Chicago, IL
We had the pleasure of collaborating with a young family to shape their vision of a welcoming, laid-back home in this new construction home. AHD was hired at the early stages of construction to create a cohesive environment from the architectural finishes, lighting design to the furnishings and decor.
This project is a testament to the couple's diverse cultural influences, blending their English heritage with the rich tapestry of their travels through India. Through thoughtful design choices, we've sought to create an environment that not only reflects their personal style but also accommodates their evolving family needs.
Our focus has been on crafting a contemporary interior that prioritizes both comfort and durability, ensuring that every aspect of the space is not only inviting but also functional for their growing family. We selected bespoke furnishings, where craftsmanship takes center stage. Each piece was carefully curated to embody an organic biophilic aesthetic, creating a refreshing haven using earthy colors and genuine materials.
Our ultimate design intent was to create a space that is healthy, practical as well as aesthetically pleasing, tailored to the lifestyle and preferences of our clients.

The Master Bedroom offers a subtle juxtaposition of lines, textures and curves.

For the best effect when looking for fabrics to furnish your house, it is best to use fabrics that have varying textures. This is the only way to avoid getting a flat and bland look. When furnishing, consider collecting different types of fabrics and then mixing them until you get a result you find appealing. Do not be afraid of trying out as many fabrics as possible. Remember it is only through carrying out trials that you will be able to identify the right color schemes as well as find what works best for your items or house. Voyage Maison share some tips to make the most of your soft furnishing.
When Choosing Fabrics, Consider Where You Want Them To Go
When selecting a fabric scheme, consider where you want the fabrics to go. If you look at the back of most fabrics, you will find that most manufacturers usually indicate the most suitable area where they should be placed such as on upholstery or for windows. You will also find that most fabrics usually come with labelled with their composition and rubs. Understanding the rubs on a fabric will help you know more about the durability of the material as well as the most suitable areas of use. The number of rubs on a fabric are typically found on little icons on the material or they can be indicated in the form of a number after a Martindale test has been carried out by the manufacturer. The number of rubs is the best way to know how to purpose a fabric. For example: • Fabrics with less than 10,000 rubs are most ideal for decorative uses • Fabrics with between 10,000-15,000 rubs are ideal for light domestic uses • Fabrics with between 15,000-25,000 rubs are ideal for general domestic uses • Fabrics with between 25,000-30,000 rubs are ideal for heavy duty uses When Choosing Fabrics For Furnishing, Consider Their Practicality and Maintenance Needs
It is best that you select your fabrics based on your existing needs while at the same time looking at the care that will be required to keep the material in prime condition. For example, if you have pets and kids, you should go for fabrics that can easily be wiped or cleaned. Most of the fabrics in the market today can be easily cleaned but you should ensure that you specify to your retailer that you need a material that is easy to clean when making a purchase. On finding your fabric of choice, you can also acquire Scotchgard – A strong fabric cover that repels most spills making cleaning of fabrics easier.
When selecting fabrics, you should also consider the orientation of the room where they will be used. This will help you pick the right material of fabric as well as select the right fabric color. For example, if your room has a southern orientation, light will be filtering into the room in such a way that it will not be prudent to use fabrics made of silk material for your cushions and windows.
Tips On How To Accentuate The Appeal Of a Room By Adding Throws & Cushions
In the market, you will find cushions and throws in all shapes, sizes and colors. These fittings can essentially be said to be the cherry on top of the cake when it comes to accentuating the décor in a room. After planning out the furnishings for the rest of the room, cushions and throws can help you brighten up a room and further, they can help you transform it entirely. For example, you can change the look of a room from formal to informal just by selecting the right cushions. You can also transform the look of a room to suit the season at hand, say from summer to winter by simply changing cushions and playing around with the fabric covers. You can also achieve different effects by changing the sizes of cushions and throws in a room. Changing cushions and fabrics to suit different occasions, moods or seasons is a great way to achieve your desired look without breaking the bank.

From Architect Elizabeth Herrmann:
"Characterized by sculptural, offset boxes, the form of the building is playful in appearance but also practical. The shifting volumes shape interior and exterior spaces. Upper overhangs create much-needed space while enabling us to utilize the old pool house’s foundation. Contrasting siding–two types of charred and pigmented cypress (aka shou sugi ban or yakisugi)– highlights the interplay of forms. Strategically placed large windows frame mountain views, guide with daylight, help define interior nooks, and provide overlooks to the pool area. Two large, sliding doors at the pool side of the house allow for easy indoor/outdoor flow. Integrated fully within the house form is a shaded outdoor grille area with plenty of space for food preparation and serving–neatly tucked away but convenient. Pool equipment and storage are also fully integrated into the structure and out-of-view."

A cedar wood privacy fence is a stunning addition to any property, combining functionality and natural beauty. Crafted from high-quality cedar, known for its durability and resistance to decay, this type of fence offers a warm, rich hue that complements a variety of landscapes. The natural oils in cedar give the wood its distinctive aroma and provide a protective barrier against the elements, helping the fence to withstand harsh weather conditions over time.
Standing tall, a cedar privacy fence typically features closely spaced vertical boards that block the view from outside, ensuring a sense of seclusion and security within your outdoor space. The wood's smooth finish adds an elegant touch, while the option to stain or seal can enhance the grain and protect against fading.
Whether placed around a backyard, garden, or patio, a cedar wood privacy fence fosters an inviting atmosphere, making it the perfect choice for those looking for a serene environment. It also requires minimal maintenance, needing only old cleaning and re-staining to keep it looking its best. Overall, a cedar wood privacy fence is a timeless investment providing tangible and practical benefits.
