Church-Conversion-Linc Thelen Design-01-1 Kindesign

Thisย beautiful church conversion project of 5,500 square feet was carried outย by interior architecture firmย Linc Thelen Design, located in Chicago, Illinois. The home is very grand in scale, designed for a familyย of five, hosting seven bedrooms and six full bathrooms with plenty of space for family interaction. The open plan living, kitchen and dining area features a dramatic floor-to-ceiling double-sided fireplace with built-in niches for wood storage andย soaring ceilings with skylights that bathes the interiorsย with natural light. Design finishes that have been incorporated into theย interiors gives off a hip and eclectic vibe, which isย coupledย with visually intriguing wall coverings and light fixtures. The design team custom designed mostย of the furnishings you see showcased throughout the interiorsย which includesย a practice rock climbing wall. The converted church features historically preserved details, which includes the original stained glass windows, a bell tower, exposed brick wallsย and ceiling turnbuckles, while still incorporating modern day amenities. Crisp white walls and bleached wood plank flooring keeps a simple color palette that focuses your attention to the stunning architectural elements that this preserved church has to offer.
