River North Residence | Chicago, Illinois

The homeowner wanted to embrace the industrial character of her River North residence while making the home feel softer and more inviting. She also wanted to introduce color throughout, but in a subtle way that wouldn't compete with the architecture.

We kept the clean architectural lines as a starting point, bringing in softer furnishings, warm textures and carefully chosen touches of color. The bathroom offered an opportunity to take a different approach. There, the homeowner wanted a space that would make a statement, filled with color and personality. This contrast gave the home a distinct character while keeping the overall design connected.

Paula Interiors provided full-service interior design and furnishing for the residence, including the bathroom.
