Interior RehabilitationWinner
DEnnis Scott and Thom day
Scott & Day created an exquisite and functional upstairs home office, library space and recording studio using the existing attic footprint. Energy-efficient skylights open and brighten the once raw attic space. The couple used period finishes and details, including lighting, hand stencils and a craftsman stair rail designed by Scott and built by Day. Honorable MentionSara taub and Jason Taylor
With the aid of the HCBA’s architectural pattern drawings, Sara and Jason created a dormer addition that is spacious, light and airy, yet in keeping with the architectural character of the Chicago Bungalow. The couple looked to Frank Lloyd Wright for inspiration for the woodwork and other architectural detailing to create a lovely master bedroom. Honorable Mentionsui ling martinez and jason froberg
Sui Ling and Jason inherited a kitchen that had been poorly updated in the 1950s. To start, the couple had a new stainless steel refrigerator and a restored 1930’s Magic Chef stove. Consequently Jason and Sui sought to incorporate many modern conveniences in their rehab, but offset those with vintage elements to create a functional, yet period feeling kitchen. |
