Our Chicago Home Makeover
Below are some design renovations I did for our previous home in Chicago. It was a 1970’s house that needed a lot of attention. I like to use our previous home and our current home as a way for me to showcase my design ideas and the potential each room has. My process starts with a mood board and then I often do an eDesign for each space. This gives me a blueprint to follow while I shop and work!

“Marissa helped us update our guest bedroom. She had a vision of what it could look like and designed that in a “board” so that we could see it. Marissa listened to our ideas and worked with our budget and furniture pieces that we wanted to continue to use. She suggested changes that really gave the room a much more modern look. We absolutely love it, and so do the family and friends that we share it with.”
