We worked with this Chicago client and her family to redo the furniture layout for their newly renovated basement and living room.

We worked with this Chicago client and her family to redo the furniture layout for their newly renovated basement and living room.

With a partner who works from home and two teenage boys who are musicians, we aimed to create spaces that were both inviting and functional, tailored to their lifestyle needs.

By carefully selecting and positioning each piece, we maximized the flow and comfort of both areas, ensuring the living room was a vibrant, welcoming hub and the basement became a cozy retreat - complete with a TV area, yoga space, work space, and music studio.

We were able to repurpose the majority of items the client owned and also find more prominent places for meaningful family heirlooms that were underutilized. The result is a seamless blend of style and practicality, turning their spaces into the heart of their home.

three couches in basement with rug

We shifted the seating around to maximize seating, hung art, and sourced a larger rug to better anchor the tv lounging area. We also found the antique quilt the client's grandmother made (it was previously stored in a closet) and hung it above a family heirloom table.

“Throughout the process, we worked as a team, with Gabe’s impeccable eye for styling and design leading the way. From drilling hairpin legs onto an old card catalog to make an entryway table to hanging a room-length curtain to make the basement more appealing, to helping me style my living room so it’s peaceful and serene, I could not be more pleased with how it all looks – and most importantly – feels. I can say with confidence that Gabe’s vision and work has resulted in a living space that has already improved my well-being.”

white bookcases with messy space in basement

In the music area, we shifted the blue bookcase items to the white shelves and helped the client dispose of the extra chairs that lined up the wall. We also layered another area rug to make the space extra cozy.

blue living room with sectional couch

In the client's bright and spacious living room, we pushed the sectional closer to the window to allow us to flip the beautiful wooden hutch to the main wall for more wow factor. We styled the client's accessories, moved the art lower, and added lamps for more brightness.
