Located in the exciting new neighborhood of Union Market, Morse Street is a 260 unit luxury apartment building. During the design phases of this project I oversaw the interior design of building amenity and common areas. The client’s target population for this building is empty nesters and professionals. Our team’s design proposal is based around a minimal, sophisticated palette. Geometric volumes of walnut and soft, dimensional fabric walls complement key common area and entertaining spaces in the building.
My work on this project was largely a way to introduce myself and my professional experience to the firm. I was able to use my strong communication skills to reach out to interior finishes community in Chicago and create new relationships between our firm and many of key contacts in our region. Research into new finishes and products was extensive for this project. The design process required talented organization on my par t to communicate our visual concepts to the client and achieve sign off.
By the end of the design phase we were able to maintain elements key to our design, on budget, by researching multiple materials and manufacturers throughout design.
