Wilmette Historical
Photography by Josh Thornton
Nestled in the highly coveted CAGE neighborhood on brick-paved Chestnut street in Wilmette, this historical home had great bones but felt too traditional. The homeowner wanted color and curiosities throughout to create interest and to make the home feel personal.
Chic, glamorous, and with a wink of cheekiness, the inspiration for this home was to create a timelessly curated space that pulled pieces and shapes from the 1940s-70s. The goal was to be light, bright, and airy, but never boring.
