Photos by Michael Alan KaskelSitting Room at a GlanceWho lives here: A family with three young girlsLocation: Evanston, IllinoisSize: About 200 square feet (19 square meters)Architect: David Ogden, Raino Ogden ArchitectsDesigner: Jasmin Reese InteriorsThis energetic couple love bold colors and edgy design, but their 1892 Queen Anne house in the Chicago suburbs is a registered landmark that came with the requisite exterior restrictions. As a result, their fearless style had to be contained to the home’s interiors. Though when it comes to describing the sitting room in the third floor’s converted attic, contained is hardly the word that comes to mind.Architect David Ogden transformed the attic into a master suite with a bedroom, bathroom, walk-in closet and sitting room. Interior designer Jasmin Reese was brought in to infuse it with color, a mix of contemporary and antique furniture and cleverly disguised storage. The result is a lively space with bold blue lacquer walls, a multicolored rug and a built-in wet bar.
