Projects

At Skin Interior Design, we believe a home isn’t just a place to live—it’s a reflection of your personality, lifestyle, and aspirations. The Chicago area, with its rich architectural heritage and vibrant neighborhoods, offers endless inspiration for creating timeless interiors that elevate everyday living.

Whether it’s a historic Gold Coast mansion or a bold, modern city residence, our team thrives on transforming spaces into stunning showcases of design. Join us as we explore some of our favorite Chicago projects and the art of making a house a home.

Why Chicago Is a Designer’s Playground

Chicago’s architecture is world-renowned, but it’s what’s inside that truly counts. Homes here seamlessly combine timeless charm with modern sophistication, providing the perfect canvas for interior design innovation.

Our story began right here in Chicago, a city that we’ve developed a deep understanding of. From optimizing layouts in sleek urban penthouses to honoring the craftsmanship of historic homes, we bring a distinctly Chicago perspective to every project we undertake.

Kitchen interior design is the subject of many trends. How do you create a kitchen that transcends the ever-evolving world of what’s “in”? SKIN Interior Design’s goal with each space we approach is to create timeless elegance through the melding of classic and chic aesthetics. Here are five concepts to help inspire enduring style in the heart of your home. 

Embrace White

There’s nothing like the sun shining in through the kitchen window as you embrace the start of your day. Bring the light and airiness of a beautiful day into your kitchen interior design concept with shades of white. White surrounds you with a clean elegance and using it as the backdrop for focal points of color brings a balance of boldness and gentleness into your kitchen.

Daring Ceilings

The ceiling is an often-overlooked opportunity in kitchen interior design. Consider the ceiling as the canopy over an environment that complements the atmosphere of your kitchen and the personality that fills it. Think adventurously, make daring choices, and embrace what is overhead as a space to tie together your unique aesthetic.

Bold Tile

Just as kitchen tile serves a functional purpose, it can bring boldness with a purpose into the space. Kitchen interior design often pulls together neutrals in a cohesive concept. Tile is an opportunity to disrupt the neutrals with a stunning display of color and pattern. Backsplash trends come and go but choosing a tile that reflects the identity of your home is timeless. 

Unexpected Seating

Elevating beauty to a sense of excitement requires the unexpected. Stools come in many shapes, colors, and fabrics. Thinking outside the wooden box gives you an opportunity to add flair to your kitchen interior design concept through plush seating or metallic and leather accents. Combining comfort with a unique visual is always an excellent equation for an aesthetic that stands out.   

Distinctive Neutrals

Creating contrast in kitchen interior design doesn’t necessarily require a simple neutral and striking hue. Alternative neutrals, like a deep, muted blue, against a more traditional backdrop give a kitchen depth and definition without adding noise. 

Timeless Kitchen Interior Design

When it comes to the aesthetic of your kitchen, leave the reconstruction of somebody else’s sense of style behind. Letting your personality and passions lead the way will result in classic pieces and unforeseen twists.

The SKIN team has long dreamed of a Palm Beach office location and we are delighted to announce that our doors are open. We knew the breathtaking landscape, spirited blend of cultures, and dazzling architecture of the area would provide ample inspiration for our future favorite Palm Beach and Miami interior design concepts. Having collaborated on our first projects, we can officially say the dream has come true. 

The Palm Beach Interior Design Allure  

SKIN is well-known for incorporating old world aesthetics into fresh, modern interiors. One of Palm Beach’s most appealing characteristics is the Gilded Age architecture among brilliantly colored structures set against the backdrop of a sleek skyline that reflects the sun shining on the ocean. These visuals are truly a sensation. Creating Palm Beach interiors that match the feeling is what drives the SKIN team.

Miami’s Interior Design Inspiration   

Like our designs, many of Miami’s cityscapes are eccentric yet elegant. The skyline dazzles and the bright turquoise waters against white sand beaches are nothing short of luxurious. We enjoy how terracotta walls, wrought iron elements, and lively mosaics surround residents as modern designs and cultural splashes abound, creating the quintessential Miami scene. A home in Miami is the perfect place for lively art, international style, and classic interior design. All things the SKIN team pours into every project. 

Featured Miami Beach Project   

We are currently collaborating on a massive renovation project of one of Miami Beach’s classic Spanish Revival homes. Working within the enchantment of the architecture and its surroundings has been an absolute pleasure. Read more about the project here and follow along as we unveil more exquisite interiors on our Instagram.

Visitors are welcome to our new office, located at 815 N. Dixie Highway in West Palm Beach, 33401. We would like to thank our incredible staff Mary, Nicole, Heather, Michael, and Melissa for their help in turning the Palm Beach opportunity into a reality.
