I’m excited to share these photos of a home tour from a 100+ year-old home in Chicago’s North Side because they’re just so unexpected, exuding much more of an old-world feel than you’d expect to find in a big metropolitan city. This feeling has been carefully crafted by the homeowner, Grainne, and her love of all things vintage and antique, as well as from her frequent travels to Asia and Europe. Of her antiques, Grainne says, “There’s a story with everything and that travels with the piece. It makes my home feel solid and long-lasting and I like that.” Check out the home below!

Tiny homes are all the rage right now, and it was really fun to see one with my own eyes (and to photograph it!). The home tour is up now on Dwell in an article entitled, “An 860-Square-Foot Tiny Home Becomes a Summer Haven For a Family of Five,” plus more images on my website (and a few faves below).
