HOME RE-DESIGN & BUILD

Architectural home re-design featuring floating glass staircase and custom wood paneling in Lincoln Park Chicago single-family residence.

For full historic overhauls, additions, or new builds, having one team act as both architect and contractor keeps your budget honest and schedule realistic. We create full drawing sets, handle Chicago zoning and permits, and manage all site construction, framing, mechanical updates, and custom interior finishes.
