This 1956 John Calder Mackay home had been poorly renovated in years past. We kept the 1400 sqft footprint of the home, but re-oriented and re-imagined the bland white kitchen to a midcentury olive green kitchen that opened up the sight lines to the wall of glass facing the rear yard. We chose materials that felt authentic and appropriate for the house: handmade glazed ceramics, bricks inspired by the California coast, natural white oaks heavy in grain, and honed marbles in complementary hues to the earth tones we peppered throughout the hard and soft finishes. This project was featured in the Wall Street Journal in April 2022.

The living room at our Crouch End apartment project, creating a chic, cosy space to relax and entertain. A soft powder blue adorns the walls in a room that is flooded with natural light. Brass clad shelves bring a considered attention to detail, with contemporary fixtures contrasted with a traditional sofa shape.

This is a personal design project - our living room! This reading nook/sitting area in the living room is one of my favorite spots in the apartment. Peeking in from the sides are the coffee table and acrylic desk chair (IKEA Tobias). Will update with the rest of the room at a later date! Bookshelf: IKEA Nornas stained with several different shades of Minwax Wood Sheen and sealed with water-based Polycrylic. Risom chair: a find from my great uncle - the webbing was ripped and the legs had some water damage, so this is the restored chair. Comada/Panamericana chair: purchased from Alapash in Ravenswood, Chicago, imported by Maya Mueble. IKEA faux sheepskin below.

Painted brick brings new life to the original craftsman fireplace. An edited mantle-scape in neutrals and metallics highlights the wood trim details and soft wall color. Clean line furnishings with a nod to midcentury modern keeps the space looking tight and fresh.

The owners were looking for a mid-century vibe in their new lounge and wanted alcove storage for books and ornaments and somewhere to keep the Skybox and DVD's out of sight. Built in white open storage and cupboards with a touch of oak to tie in with their newly polished parquet flooring.

The Arts & Crafts Movement encompasses the work of the Greene Brothers, Gustav Stickley, and notably, the genius of Rene Mackintosh and his wife, M. McDonald. Their art informed and invigorated the spiritual and contemplative aspects of the movement. For this design our client imposed no boundaries on the project, except that the room serve as both library and guest room. The existing fireplace, squeezed into a corner, posed an initial challenge, but now appears well intended for the space. Warm butternut was used to soften the room. Organic details appoint the bookcase columns and the surrounding passages of paneling. Windows were framed with angled panels, and sills were deepened to invite a relaxed view of the yard. The bed is tucked in its own niche, limiting its intrusion upon the room’s other uses. Multi-function rooms require deft design, and exceptional craftsmanship. The art of renowned glass artisan, Wayne Cain, contributed masterfully to this room’s appeal. Design and detail are hallmarks of the craftsmanship from Jaeger and Ernst.
