For a Parisian client who wanted a pied-a-terre in Chicago, designer Todd M. Haley developed a serene environment that was a respite from her busy life. Since the apartment is in a circa-1905 Lincoln Park building on a tree-lined street, it presented Haley with the perfect opportunity to combine classic American and European styles. See how he reinterpreted time-honored French details with iconic American design to create a sophisticated space in the big city.

    Fresh from a buying trip to Paris, Haley began the design of the apartment with the goal of combining French details and iconic American elements. In the living and dining areas, a pale lavender palette underscores the sense of calm. All of the furniture is upholstered in the same Knoll fabric.
