Complete Renovation on Red Oak in Northbrook »

August 29, 2024

This home had been vacant for several years before undergoing a full transformation. We completed a top-to-bottom gut renovation, reimagining every inch of the space to bring it back to life.   There is all-new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, windows, and insulation throughout. Finishes were carefully selected to reflect timeless style with a clean, contemporary feel. What was once a neglected house is now a bright, welcoming home built for today’s living—inside and out.

Complete Home Renovation Residential Construction Project in Highland Park »

July 25, 2024

This whole house remodel project transformed a dated 2000’s style home into a sleek, modern masterpiece.  The outdated house was replaced with fresh, neutral paint, while sleek hardwood floors and stairs added warmth and sophistication. In the kitchen, we installed custom cabinetry with minimalist hardware, a spacious island topped with stone, and state-of-the-art appliances. Bathrooms were revamped with contemporary fixtures, walk-in showers, and chic tile designs.  This comprehensive renovation not only revitalized the home’s aesthetic but also infused it with modern functionality, creating a welcoming space that beautifully combines form and function.

Addition of a Pergola on Woodley in Winnetka »

June 2, 2024

We recently completed a stunning custom-built poolside pergola designed to enhance both functionality and aesthetics. To complement the surrounding outdoor space, we incorporated decorative end cuts on the rafters and finished the structure with a weather-resistant paint that enhances the wood’s natural beauty. Integrated LED lighting and a fire pit add both ambiance and practicality, making the pergola perfect for daytime relaxation and evening gatherings during any season. This project not only elevates the poolside experience but also adds value and sophistication to the outdoor living space.

Addition and Complete Renovation Project on Midwest in Oak Brook »

May 8, 2024

We completely transformed this 1990’s style home, from the flat roof and teal roof tiles to the interior.  Tearing off the flat roof was the first step in transforming the home’s silhouette, as we prepared to install a striking gabled roof.  While this work was going on we were demoing the entire 2nd floor and adding an additional 1,500 square foot to create a brand-new layout with three separate wings.  Each wing has a master suite with master bath, closet and laundry room, baby’s room and TV room with a separate entrance from the other wings.  The basement walls were opened up and transformed into a place for entertaining family and friends.  The main kitchen was designed around the La Cornue range and hood.  This remarkable remodel project transformed the entire home into a stunning blend of modern elegance and functional design, showcasing open spaces, high-end finishes, and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.

Addition and Complete Renovation – Residential Construction Project on Park Place, Evanston, IL »

May 9, 2023

After a devastating electrical fire in the attic left the whole house charred and in disarray, we embarked on an ambitious renovation project to restore its beauty. The homeowner decided to do an addition at the same time we were renovating. We began by completely overhauling the damaged electrical system, ensuring safety and compliance with modern standards. With fresh insulation and new drywall throughout the entire house, we transformed the interior into a bright, inviting space filled with natural light. The new design showcased sleek finishes, updated fixtures, and a stylish color palette that blended warmth with contemporary elegance. The final result was a stunning home that not only recovered from tragedy but also emerged more beautiful and vibrant than ever before.
