The first time I stepped into Alaina Kaczmarskis Chicago greystone, I audibly gasped. You see, Ive been following her homes since the first time I saw her craigslist decorated living room that looked like it was ripped from the pages of a magazine. Weve since become not just internet friends and even though I saw blips of the decorating progress along the way, theres nothing like stepping inside and seeing it all together. She managed to capture a modern traditional style that makes you feel like youre in a Nancy Meyers movie or that Tom Hanks is about to knock on your door with a freshly sharpened bouquet of pencils. I may or may not have chained myself to her banister and refused to leave. The best part of Alainas home No, its not the sweet dogs or free flowing red wine although they are both a close second. Its that she uses time honored silhouettes and neutral pieces that are truly a style investment and can be used for years to come. Ok, but really WHO CARES ABOUT WORDS WHEN THERE ARE GORGEOUS PHOTOS TO SCROLL THROUGH. Full Name Alaina Kaczmarski, Co Founder Editor of The Everygirl. Age 3. 1Location Chicago, ILYears Lived In 1. Rent or Own Rent. Square Footage 1,6. This vintage greystone is your sixth home in the city of ChicagoHow does it stack up to your previous homes Would you say its become your favorite I fell in love with this style home years ago when I first saw Jenna Lyons Brooklyn brownstone home tour. I wrote a blog post back in 2. English roll arm sofa, and abundance of natural light and wrote From now on, when anyone asks, Whats your style I will refer to this photo. I never actually thought Id live in one But it inspired my interior design aesthetic for the past six years. Then I fell in love with Ali Caynes brownstone home tour and all of its similarities to Ms. Lyons, and the two have been cemented in my brain ever since. I came across the Craigslist listing for this house last December when my husband, Dan Schmieder, and I were displaced due to a gas leak at our previous apartment. I immediately noted the similar architectural elements as Ms. Lyons and Ms. Caynes homes the fireplace mantels, large living rooms, formal entryway, and grand staircase, and I fell in love. So yes, this is literally my dream home. I love walking up the front steps whenever I come home. Watch See No Evil 2 Torent Free. All of that being said, there is one huge similarity between our current house and my past apartments. Theyre all great vintage apartments with interesting architectural details and tons of natural light. And with just about all of my past homes, Ive been willing to sacrifice updated kitchens and baths for that vintage charm. This house is no exception  the kitchen and bathrooms are not only outdated, the cabinets and flooring are cracking and not in great shape. Lucky for us, Im pretty sure thats why anyone else who came to look at it passed. Fortunately, Dan is as indifferent as I am about having upgraded appliances. Ill take an outdated kitchen for a wood burning fireplace and floor to ceiling windows any dayTHE ENTRYWAY BEFORETHE ENTRYWAY AFTERMost people who have seen the Before photos of your current place would have immediately passed over it as a rental. How do you look past the obvious pitfalls or problems when apartment hunting Was there any part of you that was a little nervous about such a big project This was and is my dream home, but it wasnt in great shape when we first looked at it. Worse than I even imagined so much so we almost passed on it too See the before photos here and here. Ive never shied away from a little painting project here and there to spruce up a rental. But the tile in the bathrooms and kitchen are cracked in places, the appliances and cabinets are all super outdated, chipping, even falling off in one instance the carpet in the upstairs bedrooms was really really really dirty and needed to be replaced. There were cobwebs above all of the door and window trim. Fun stuff. But I saw the fireplaces. Plural. And massive windows and grand foyer and oversized master bedroom all of my previous bedrooms barely fit a queen bed. Dan saw how excited I was by this place so he was on board, but I was worried it would be more work than Id want to take on. I actually texted photos to Michelle Adams, another design idol of mine. Her response was something along the lines of holy crap take it immediately Hah, so that helped We negotiated with the landlord that wed sign a two year lease as long as the bedroom carpets got replaced, the whole place got painted plus I got to choose the color Behrs Ultra Bright White, and the house got thoroughly cleaned. When we moved in, I knew I wanted to change out the ceiling light fixtures, paint the kitchen and bathroom cabinets, and change the stair runner. I fortunately was able to partner with the kind folks at Annie Selkes Dash Albert on the latter which meant we were able to put a much nicer quality wool rug in than we would have done otherwise, but I go into much greater detail about updating a rental on my blog What Were Fixing Up in a Rental and Why. THE LIVING ROOM BEFORETHE LIVING ROOM AFTERObviously one of the biggest differences between this home and some of the previous places you lived like your quaint Lincoln Park one bedroom is the size. What kind of challenges did designing in a larger home present in comparison to designing in a smaller apartmentJust filling it Every room takes time and it feels like an accomplishment once its finished. But then you realize you still have 4, 5, or 6 more rooms to do That is overwhelming. For me, the most challenging part design wise is when you have rooms that open up from one to the next because youre essentially designing two or three rooms in one. This was the case with our living, dining, and entryway. I had to make sure the light fixtures, furniture, and rugs complemented one another, so anytime I was choosing one I had to think about what was going in the others since theyd all be visible to one another. Fortunately sticking to a warm, neutral color palette and the theme of a modern take on traditional design helped. THE DINING ROOM BEFORETHE DINING ROOM AFTERLets talk about the evolution of your style from your very first Chicago apartment to now. How has your taste evolved over the past few yearsMy overall style hasnt really changed. Ive always loved traditional pieces and have been open to trying new things. Id say it just looks a bit olderMore mature A lot less pink and stripes and bows. Hah There isnt really anything in our place I could see growing tired of any time soon. Its all very classic. What was the biggest splurge in your home Do you have a rule of thumb for deciding where youll spend versus save when it comes to decorMy general rule of thumb is to ask yourself is this item practical and do you see it use it frequently I wouldnt splurge on anything that gets tucked into a corner or room that is rarely seen. Similarly, never buy something thats so expensive youre scared to actually use it. If its that special and will make you smile and youll use it for years to come, its worth it. The biggest splurge in our place was definitely the mirror above our fireplace mantel. Watch Green Street Hooligans Online Mic here. And the chandelier would have been a huge investment I was ready to make but fortunately I was able to partner with the team at Candelabra on that item. But I was willing to invest because theyre the first two things you notice when you walk into the living room. I get more compliments on both than on anything in the house and theyre items EVERYONE who comes over sees. More advice Id say err on the side of caution when it comes to splurging on upholstery items, because inevitably they WILL get something on them and possibly stain or tear.
