THE AERIE

A Chicago high-rise, transformed into a boutique hotel in the sky for a pair of Bon Vivants who traded their single-family home for an entirely different way of living, one rooted in experience, entertaining, and Living Unapologetically.

The brief was simple: carte blanche. Build something layered. Build something experiential. Don’t let us hold you back.

So we pushed.

We answered a boxy floor plan with curves, layered a glamorous ’70s sensibility over finishes that lacked any real point of view, and treated every sightline as an opportunity. Every room unfolds a little differently, revealing itself layer by layer. The result is a home that feels less like a residence and more like an experience, one that reflects the way our clients want to live now, not where they came from. As seen in Rue Magazine
