This unit, located in a 4-flat owned by TKS Owners Jeff and Susan Klimala, was remodeled as their personal pied-à-terre, and doubles as an Airbnb property when they are not using it. Jeff and Susan were drawn to the location of the building, a vibrant Chicago neighborhood, 4 blocks from Wrigley Field, as well as to the vintage charm of the 1890’s building. The entire 2 bed, 2 bath unit was renovated and furnished, including the kitchen, with a specific Parisian vibe in mind.
Although the location and vintage charm were all there, the building was not in ideal shape -- the mechanicals -- from HVAC, to electrical, plumbing, to needed structural updates, peeling plaster, out of level floors, the list was long. Susan and Jeff drew on their expertise to update the issues behind the walls while also preserving much of the original charm that attracted them to the building in the first place -- heart pine floors, vintage mouldings, pocket doors and transoms.
Because this unit was going to be primarily used as an Airbnb, the Klimalas wanted to make it beautiful, maintain the character of the building, while also specifying materials that would last and wouldn’t break the budget. Susan enjoyed the hunt of specifying these items and still coming up with a cohesive creative space that feels a bit French in flavor.
Parisian style décor is all about casual elegance and an eclectic mix of old and new. Susan had fun sourcing some more personal pieces of artwork for the space, creating a dramatic black, white and moody green color scheme for the kitchen and highlighting the living room with pieces to showcase the vintage fireplace and pocket doors.

Nip Tuck Remodeling
The original fireplace had brick around it - so we went right over the top and clad it in matching tile in the Kitchen as well as quartz slab on the hearth. A new mantel was installed above and the existing cabinets were painted to match the Kitchen. New cabinet doors were replaced to match the remodeled kitchen esthetic.
Mon Concept Habitation
Dans ce grand appartement, l’accent a été mis sur des couleurs fortes qui donne du caractère à cet intérieur.
On retrouve un bleu nuit dans le salon avec la bibliothèque sur mesure ainsi que dans la chambre parentale. Cette couleur donne de la profondeur à la pièce ainsi qu’une ambiance intimiste. La couleur verte se décline dans la cuisine et dans l’entrée qui a été entièrement repensée pour être plus fonctionnelle. La verrière d’artiste au style industriel relie les deux espaces pour créer une continuité visuelle.Enfin, on trouve une couleur plus forte, le rouge terracotta, dans l’espace servant à la fois de bureau et de buanderie. Elle donne du dynamisme à la pièce et inspire la créativité !
Un cocktail de couleurs tendance associé avec des matériaux de qualité, ça donne ça !

The design has created a light and modern kitchen and living space at the back of the building, transforming the ground floor from dark and uninviting into a sleek, bright and open planned.
The oriel window also creates a unique window seat from which to watch the garden from.

Sala da pranzo e soggiorno convivono in un unico ampio spazio. I divani e i poufs si affacciano su una grande libreria che circonda il televisore. Il bianco tavolo da pranzo è circondato da sedie colorate per contrastare la tinta unita delle pareti bianche.
