Collected Ease

Wicker Park Residence | Chicago, Illinois

The homeowners wanted their living and dining areas to feel calm, comfortable and welcoming, with a look that was understated but still had personality. The idea was to create spaces that felt connected without looking too formal or overly coordinated.

We worked with a palette of soft neutrals, dark wood and black, bringing in contrast through the artwork, navy velvet swivel chairs and an oversized pendant above the dining table. A mix of textures, sculptural shapes and carefully selected pieces gives the rooms character while keeping the overall feel relaxed and inviting.

Paula Interiors provided interior design, furniture and art selection, sourcing and procurement for the living and dining areas.
