A lush palette of wood vestibules and rich marbles offsets the clean, white openness of this loft apartment. The detailing recalls crisp, mid-century French apartments and provides a strong background to the colorful decoration. David Sundberg, ESTO, Photographer

This couple purchased a second home as a respite from city living. Living primarily in downtown Chicago the couple desired a place to connect with nature. The home is located on 80 acres and is situated far back on a wooded lot with a pond, pool and a detached rec room. The home includes four bedrooms and one bunkroom along with five full baths. The home was stripped down to the studs, a total gut. Linc modified the exterior and created a modern look by removing the balconies on the exterior, removing the roof overhang, adding vertical siding and painting the structure black. The garage was converted into a detached rec room and a new pool was added complete with outdoor shower, concrete pavers, ipe wood wall and a limestone surround. 2nd Floor Bunk Room Details Three sets of custom bunks and ladders- sleeps 6 kids and 2 adults with a king bed. Each bunk has a niche, outlets and an individual switch for their separate light from Wayfair. Flooring is rough wide plank white oak and distressed.

This is a comfortable, hearty sofa that makes a bold and updated reference to mid-century modern design. Strong, square lines are softened by curved shelter arms upholstered in plush chenille fabric, all encased in an espresso-finished lattice wood frame. While understated, creates a design presence that cannot be missed. Works great as a standalone piece or pairs beautifully with the club chair.

How to create a cozy living room in a great (big) space with high ceilings and strong architectural details? Think low, close, and comfortable. The modern, conversation-friendly Lynn sectional is plush and inviting, with arched arms and a graceful profile. You can see the modern living room inspiration, even in this farmhouse space; we keep color to a minimum, and nothing gets it done like black and white.
