Chicago Co-Op Remodel

Chicago interior designer Summer Thornton renovation & decorating of a chicago Co-op

burgundy red kitchen detailing and light wood millwork create a stunning kitchen in a lake shore drive co-op in Chicago designed by Summer Thornton

glossy details from a mirror-finish polished stainless steel hood to high-gloss cabinetry inserts in burgundy red & even a lacquered ceiling give this kitchen by interior designer Summer Thornton a water-like reflective quality, emulating the waves of Lake Michigan that it overlooks

PROJECT

On East Lake Shore Drive, this co-op project combined 2 separate units last updated in the '60s into 1 lavish apartment with a gut-remodel, relocating the kitchen to the front of the apartment overlooking the lake.

INSPIRATION

Take traditionalist cues from the 1930's Benjamin Marshall building but give it a fresh direction and modern styling, plus a hefty pop of color.

THE CLIENT

This young family wanted a weekend getaway in the city steps from Michigan Avenue, the lake, and all the city has to offer.
