We really love the Reader's annual "Nest" issue - we blogged it last year, and are happy to see it come around again. This time, it features five ever-changing Chicago homes - very interesting and super personal. As the Reader puts it: " It’s your taste, energy, skill, and cold hard cash that determine what goes in, and on, your house. Essentially, it’s you. The people profiled here have taken that fact to heart..."



















"The Professionals" is by far my favorite. Nice detailing, clean lines, good storage solutions, accommodates their son.

because naturally you can not relate to someone's home unless you're the same color skin as them...

rierei, do you live here?
i've never once been on the train where there are no black/asian/hispanic people. it is a bit odd that out of six homes all the people are white.

I was just thinking that SD913. That creeps me out beyond belief. Wrong on so many levels; and only one is design related.
