The owner of this townhome in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood wanted to redesign her second floor, where she entertains, dines with friends and listens to her son play the piano. A warm, inviting ambiance was achieved through decor that features contemporary Asian influences. This dining area is highlighted by a BACCARA table base by Paolo Tommasi, a custom-made wooden tabletop by American Barn Company in Chicago, contrasting white and chocolate-colored dining chairs, a gold, hand-carved mirror and an accent wall featuring a suede texture.
