Flagstone patio and stuccoed block wall. A tough to tame hillside was planted with a mix of extremely low water using succulents and a boldly flowering knifeblade acacia. Billy Goodnick

Carex 'Blue Zinger' slowly creeps into empty spaces with running stolons that are easy to control. Carex uses less than half the water as the former lawn, eventually forming a thick mat that can be mowed for a more crisp look. Photo: Billy Goodnick

Kitchen - transitional kitchen idea in Chicago

Example of a transitional kitchen design in Chicago

These clients loved they're new house but the boring builder kitchen was not want the wanted. The entire kitchen was redesigned and the new layout is much more functional. Extending the island down the center and removing the L shaped one previously there, opened up the space tremendously. We extended the kitchen across the entire back wall adding a bench with storage and wine rack. The beautiful blue pearl granite compliments the soft gray wash on the island as well as the ice white shaker cabinets. The clean marble hexagon backlash is uninterrupted thanks to hidden plug bars under the cabinets. The soft and playful wood lighting fixtures keep the room from getting too stuffing and pair well with the various tan shades in the rug and fabric.These clients loved they're new house but the boring builder kitchen was not want the wanted.
