LAKE SHORE DRIVE

Obelisk Home completely reimagined this residence, transforming it into a bright, open, and inviting space filled with life. Thoughtful layers of color, fresh finishes, and curated details—like living room shelving and kitchen display plates—add character and warmth throughout. The once-dreary mudroom was refreshed with colorful cabinetry, instantly making it more functional and visually appealing.

The kitchen renovation showcased creative problem-solving while keeping perimeter walls and multiple entryways intact. Custom cabinetry was designed around doorways and extended to the ceiling, creating symmetry, maximizing storage, and making room for a larger island—the true centerpiece of the home. Soft white cabinets, handmade decorative tile, a dark-stained island, and custom support legs combine to deliver a space that feels both timeless and modern.

Smaller spaces received equal attention. The powder bath was transformed into a show-stopping feature with a marble and nickel vanity, warm painted beadboard, bold animal-print wallpaper, and oversized lighting. The laundry room became a vibrant, highly functional area with ceiling-height cabinetry, a rolling ladder, integrated dog-feeding station, sink area, and a high-gloss blue finish accented by dramatic ceiling wallpaper.

In the hearth room, the design focused on creating an intimate gathering space while maintaining flow to adjoining areas. Streamlined fireplaces and built-ins allowed for additional seating, while brass cabinet panels, antique furnishings, and layered textiles added depth and charm. The living room was reimagined around existing pieces, enhanced with new rugs, furniture, and accessories to highlight the homeowner’s curated collection. A built-in display cabinet in the hallway adds storage and showcases treasured items, completing a home that feels cohesive, personal, and thoughtfully designed.

Testimonial: “Nathan has been fantastic on several different projects on our home and each time I’m amazed at his creativity and design ideas! I love how he uses items that are treasures to our family and mixes them in with updated furniture and fabrics that he finds at market!”
