Alexandra Kaehler is a “Windy City-“based designer that recently took on an extensive and daunting challenge to renovate a North Shore, upscale property, to give it a modern, clean, sophisticated and highly English feel. A look at the beautifully appointed living room, as it currently rests, would indicate a very successful project completion. The view includes tall French windows that let in lots of natural light. The floor-length white-curtained windows buttress an elegantly quilted green sofa and side tables, as well as an expansively chic, glass coffee table and artwork that embodies a modern and witty perspective. To create the the final version required Kaehler to invest in wallpaper handcrafted by the iconic luxury brand of De Gournay. She also used no less than 90 yards of Soane Britain fabric.
Key Takeaways:
- Designer, Alexander Kaehler, used a space totalling 6,800 square feet to create an English-style interior.
- The theme was pulled of using hand-crafted wallpaper designed by the classic luxury brand De Gournay.
- To create an interior fit for an English Lord also required Kaehler to make the strategic decision to use 90 yards of Soane Britain fabric.
“Her wish came true after Kaehler’s sister—along with her sister’s husband and two dogs—celebrated a new pregnancy amid stay-at-home orders.”
