Interior Design for Lincoln Park Homes
Lincoln Park holds some of Chicago’s most characterful housing stock: landmarked greystones and brownstones, Victorian rowhouses, converted two-flats and three-flats, vintage courtyard buildings, high-rises along the park, and a steady stream of new single-family construction on teardown lots.
Each demands a different hand. A greystone with original millwork, pocket doors, mantels, and transoms deserves design that respects what is already there — updating a kitchen without erasing the reason you bought the house. A brand new build on a Lincoln Park lot has the opposite problem: everything is possible and nothing has character yet, so character has to be introduced deliberately through millwork, wallcovering, color, and texture.

What to Plan for in a Lincoln Park Renovation
Lincoln Park’s older homes come with real constraints. Narrow staircases and tight landings decide what furniture can physically reach the second and third floors, which is why we confirm delivery paths before specifying anything oversized. Existing plumbing stacks make relocating baths expensive. Landmark and historic district considerations can govern exterior work and windows. Alley access and permit parking shape construction logistics. None of this is a reason to design smaller. It is a reason to design earlier.

We are members of ASID, the Interior Design Society, and the River North Design District, and our work has been featured in Modern Luxury, Better Homes & Gardens, Good Housekeeping, and Design Chicago Magazine. We are known for layering color, texture, and pattern. If you want a Lincoln Park home with genuine personality rather than another all-white renovation, that is our specialty.
