Example of a transitional dining room design in Chicago

Imagine yourself in the heritage and tradition of The Sovereign Collection, and experience the regal style that will create a grand statement in any room. The opulent, and posh The Sovereign bedroom group brings the influence of European antiques to life with traditional carvings, detailed looping, harlequin marble, and a subtle light café latte finish called Soft Mink. The quality and attention to detail is masterfully evidenced in the bedroom, which features a stately poster bed, complete with a 3D loop on the headboard, as well as hand carved accents on each post. Solid birch is used throughout the collection because of its close grains, and satiny texture, and the carefully applied café latte finish enhances the natural beauty of the wood. Each piece is carefully created and inspected to ensure the high standards of quality for which AICO is known.&&Soft curves, hand carvings, and silver and gold tipping are harmoniously tied together with decorative hardware, highlighting the design, detail, and style that are synonymous with Michael Amini Original Furniture Designs by AICO, which beautifully connect form, with function, while drawing influence from classic European architecture. Rich velvet lining ensures the protection for your fine delicates and personal treasures, and both English and French dovetail joints that create a durable drawer, add to the quality of this bedroom set that will enhance your room, while highlighting your style.

Interior Design: Vision Interiors by Visbeen Builder: J. Peterson Homes Photographer: Ashley Avila Photography The best of the past and present meet in this distinguished design. Custom craftsmanship and distinctive detailing give this lakefront residence its vintage flavor while an open and light-filled floor plan clearly mark it as contemporary. With its interesting shingled roof lines, abundant windows with decorative brackets and welcoming porch, the exterior takes in surrounding views while the interior meets and exceeds contemporary expectations of ease and comfort. The main level features almost 3,000 square feet of open living, from the charming entry with multiple window seats and built-in benches to the central 15 by 22-foot kitchen, 22 by 18-foot living room with fireplace and adjacent dining and a relaxing, almost 300-square-foot screened-in porch. Nearby is a private sitting room and a 14 by 15-foot master bedroom with built-ins and a spa-style double-sink bath with a beautiful barrel-vaulted ceiling. The main level also includes a work room and first floor laundry, while the 2,165-square-foot second level includes three bedroom suites, a loft and a separate 966-square-foot guest quarters with private living area, kitchen and bedroom. Rounding out the offerings is the 1,960-square-foot lower level, where you can rest and recuperate in the sauna after a workout in your nearby exercise room. Also featured is a 21 by 18-family room, a 14 by 17-square-foot home theater, and an 11 by 12-foot guest bedroom suite.

Living Spaces Masters of minimalism, these designs capture the beauty of clean lines. Chairs with wood-framed backs and tailored linen upholstery gather around the tapered leg table , which expands for larger parties thanks to a 12-inch butterfly leaf. Crafted to coordinate, a three-drawer server sports the same antique finish.

Atherton has many large substantial homes - our clients purchased an existing home on a one acre flag-shaped lot and asked us to design a new dream home for them. The result is a new 7,000 square foot four-building complex consisting of the main house, six-car garage with two car lifts, pool house with a full one bedroom residence inside, and a separate home office /work out gym studio building. A fifty-foot swimming pool was also created with fully landscaped yards. Given the rectangular shape of the lot, it was decided to angle the house to incoming visitors slightly so as to more dramatically present itself. The house became a classic u-shaped home but Feng Shui design principals were employed directing the placement of the pool house to better contain the energy flow on the site. The main house entry door is then aligned with a special Japanese red maple at the end of a long visual axis at the rear of the site. These angles and alignments set up everything else about the house design and layout, and views from various rooms allow you to see into virtually every space tracking movements of others in the home. The residence is simply divided into two wings of public use, kitchen and family room, and the other wing of bedrooms, connected by the living and dining great room. Function drove the exterior form of windows and solid walls with a line of clerestory windows which bring light into the middle of the large home. Extensive sun shadow studies with 3D tree modeling led to the unorthodox placement of the pool to the north of the home, but tree shadow tracking showed this to be the sunniest area during the entire year. Sustainable measures included a full 7.1kW solar photovoltaic array technically making the house off the grid, and arranged so that no panels are visible from the property. A large 16,000 gallon rainwater catchment system consisting of tanks buried below grade was installed. The home is California GreenPoint rated and also features sealed roof soffits and a sealed crawlspace without the usual venting. A whole house computer automation system with server room was installed as well. Heating and cooling utilize hot water radiant heated concrete and wood floors supplemented by heat pump generated heating and cooling. A compound of buildings created to form balanced relationships between each other, this home is about circulation, light and a balance of form and function. Photo by John Sutton Photography.
