Entry Hall - The entry hall features a custom designed steel staircase with Edelman leather tread insets. The Chinese chest and Asian artwork came from the client's previous home.   

   Living Room (View 1) - The view from across the Christian Liagre writing desk features an oversized Chinese sign purchased in Chicago. Halogen lighting mounted from the two story ceiling provides soft illumination and drama. Jim Thompson pomagranate silk pillows and Asian lacquered boxes provide the major burst of color in the caramel and black scheme.

Living Room (View 2) - Even with the Sears Tower looming in the background, the custom designed ebony bookcase commands attention. Nearly nine feet in height, it provides needed storage as well as a place to showcase the homeowner's extensive collection of Asian artifacts.   

   Living Room (View 3) - This view from the loft provides a birds eye perspective of the Living Room as well as downtown Chicago. The homeowner prefers simple straight lines and classic contemporary styling. The sofa and leather ottoman table are from Christian Liagre at Holly Hunt, and the chairs are from John Boone. The lamps are Ralph Lauren, and the accessories are antique.

Master Bathroom - The master bathroom is completely panelled in rich dark mahogany, with granite floors and counter tops. The nickel plated hardware, faucets, and light fixtures add drama and sparkle.
