Chicago Pied-à-Terre
Designed for a pair of empty nesters with homes across the country, this Chicago pied-à-terre was envisioned as an intimate retreat above the city.
Cultured and well traveled, the clients have a deep appreciation for French culture, modern design, and expressive natural stone. These preferences guided every design decision.
The renovation celebrates those passions through intentionally restrained millwork that highlights bold stone surfaces, and eclectic decorative elements collected over time. That includes wallpaper sourced during the client’s most recent trip to Paris.
Wherever possible, existing elements were honored – most notably the original cherry floors, which were refinished in a deeper brown to ground the palette and add depth.
Perched on the 44th floor overlooking downtown Chicago and Lake Michigan, the condo was designed as a cozy nest in the sky. It’s a place to recharge, and live beautifully between travels.
