Last year, we featured a house tour of the home Ronnie and Viktoria share with their two teenagers - a big, wonderful rehabbed home in Lakeview. The house has large rooms, great bones, beautiful finis...

Kelly & Brian's "Classically Eclectic" Bucktown Apartment Last fall, The Kitchn asked its readers what they thought about lamps in the kitchen. We've since noticed them more and more, and find the ef...
One element we took special note of in Emily's kitchen was the mirror hanging over the stove (not to mention the one leaning on her bookshelves nearby). We've seen this in small kitchens before, and l...
