Devon Grace Interiors is responsible for this contemporary renovation of a family home located in Lincoln Park, a picturesque neighborhood on the North Side of Chicago, Illinois. Living spaces have been infused with warmth and adorned with stylish furnishings and accessories throughout.

Functionality meets beauty in the kitchen where the design integrates beautiful finishes and unique details without sacrificing an optimal floor plan and maximum storage. This space pulls in a clean, modern aesthetic with a neutral palette of warm wood, bright white, and crisp black materials.
