RETRO + PLAYFUL + SEAMLESS

NMI thoughtfully restored this quintessential Mid-Century modern ranch to its original charm, reversing the effects of ill-conceived 1980s renovations with a holistic redesign of its interior architecture and style. The centerpiece of the transformation is a bold, revamped kitchen featuring Scavolini cabinets in matte orange and walnut veneer; a striking nod to the vibrant mid-century aesthetic. Redefined passageways seamlessly connect the kitchen to the dining room, while expanded window openings flood the space with natural light, further enhancing its timeless appeal. A curated mix of contemporary and iconic pieces, paired with bespoke millwork in the foyer, media center, fireplace and hall bookcase, contributes to the home’s inviting yet sophisticated character. The result is a beautifully tailored space that harmonizes mid-century charm with modern functionality, perfectly suited to the lifestyle of the growing family of four who now call it home.

Professional Reviews

1 / 5

“We count our blessings every day that we found Nicholas to turn our Bucktown house into a home. What separates Nicholas from other designers (besides his impeccable taste) is that he really took the time to understand us as people; not just how we envision using our space, but how we operate in it and what passions drive us through our lives. By taking the time to understand us, he was able to infuse his designs with bespoke details made just for us. This continued throughout, from inception to final product. We loved that Nicholas brought us options, thoughtfully listened to our feedback, and that we made the final selections together, leading to a sense of pride and ownership in the final choices.” “Working with Nicholas was very easy. He was instantly responsive throughout. Because he was able to offer contractors with whom he has decades-long experience and relationships, he was able ensure that the project was managed on time, on budget, and with quality and accountability throughout. We've now lived in Nicholas's creation for about 6 months and are able to appreciate every day the subtle nuances that make our home feel like it was built just for us. It's the first time in our lives that we can truly say that we'd rather be in our home than anywhere else in the world. That is the true gift Nicholas's vision, care, and skill brought to our lives.”
