Chicago Home & Garden, May/June 2007

Featured in the May/June 2007 issue of Chicago Home & Garden, this English Country home with subtle Tudor influences is a seamless integration of elegance and Old World architecture with modern American luxury. Michael Breseman was inspired by the classical homes of Europe which he studied on trips abroad. The goal throughout the design process, and collaboration with the homeowner, was to maintain the lofty, elegant spaces of the house, but to soften them with the intimate spaces and touches that a family with young children would need to feel at home.
