Inviting Dining Room- Hinsdale, IL

This beautiful dining room was designed off the homeowner’s lovely new kitchen. The goal was to omit the original bulky features such as the raised hearth and tray ceilings to create an open, streamlined space with the rest on the first floor. Concrete blocks were removed to allow for a hearth installation flush with the wood floor; uneven brick substructure required new framing to ensure a smooth, even wall for the new mantlepiece. In addition, a new section of the wall was added to the left side of the fireplace which centered the firebox appropriately.

This Dining Room design won 3rd Place at the 2020 / 2021 NKBA Design Vision Awards, to review more of the winning projects, click here
