This redesign project involved renovation of the second story of a Chicago row house. The new design integrated the kitchen and the living room and dining area to open up the space within the existing narrow width. The kitchen layout became larger and shaped more fluidly so two people were able to cook at one time and engage with guests during dinner parties.

• Historical preservation with contemporary redesign
• Storage space maximization
• Perceptual experience improvement
• Lighting control versitility
