The grand renovation of this Chicago Lincoln Park Victorian involved gutting of most of the house, and making the basement deeper. Existing antique trim was all preserved, stored and reused in the completed work, flawlessly integrated into a project. New trim with matching profiles was used were needed. Clawfoot tubs, stone tile antique sinks and the two story open ceiling in the family room were just few of the features of this cool project.

Contemporary in the city. Highly designed, beautifully executed but warm and playful. Full of surprises: secret roof terraces, skyboxes, sunk-in patios and multi-storey open spaces and all glass facade hidden behind traditional elevation of home which it replaced.

What started as a modest insurance repair after a storm downed a large tree onto what was originally the master bedroom became a major facelift for this grand country residence, situated on a wooded lot in Winnetka. A completely new master suite has been built, with a screened porch sitting room added and a grand sunroom addition that was built on the ground level. The many previous structural issues that had accumulated over previous years have been cleaned up, and new windows, siding, and heating-cooling systems were added, and the electrical system was also updated.

A landmark renovation in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood was aimed at preserving the character of the only wood building in the area to survive the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Layers upon layers of previous remodeling jobs were peeled away, and a new garage, master suite and art studio were added. The whole building was thoroughly updated. Old windows were restored and new windows and patio doors were installed. Grand modern kitchen, high tech master bathroom and the master suite roof deck were some of the highlights of a project.

More than 1900 square feet of additional living space was added to this home in a beautiful part of Wilmette. The new addition was added to the rear of building to replace a previous, poorly designed addition. A full 8 foot deep basement was added, featuring a playroom, exercise area, and full bath, and the sizes of rooms vastly increased. Both traffic patterns and architectural design of the home improved. The kitchen and family room was relocated to overlook the backyard and increased in size. A gorgeous master suite has also been built. The entire existing existing part of the house also got a face lift.
