My Latest Interior Design Project: Designed to Sell

My latest interior design project is in the condo where I used to live. Remember the groovy green kitchen I used to have?




Now it looks like this.






I encouraged the owners to keep the vintage metal cabinets, which were refreshed with a few coats of crisp white paint. The cool modern feel is accentuated by a stainless steel backsplash, a gray quartz counter top, and ceramic floor tiles with a subtle gray and white streaked pattern.



We used the same tiles in the bathroom.



Now this high rise studio is the perfect blank slate for the next person who wants to make it their home.



I am glad I had a chance to be involved in this project. If you're looking for a place in Chicago and like what you see, I'd be happy to put you in touch with the sellers. And if you need me to do an interior design project for you, I'm happy to do that as well.

The 2017 SOFA Show

Things were a little different at this year's SOFA art show. First, an artist friend of mine, Kathy Weaver, had a piece in Gallery 19's booth:

Another thing that was different about this year's show that I didn't realize until putting this blog post together is that there wasn't any furniture that caught my eye this year. The functional art I liked best was mostly vases and jewelry. Here are my favorite things. As always, I tried to make sure to include the name of the artist with the artwork but missed a few.
