Information on Bloomingdale's |
| If
you can conceive it, you can achieve it, and that’s just what
James Harb Architects has done. They accepted the challenge to turn
Medinah Temple into the new Bloomingdale’s home and furniture
store and in so doing, turned a piece of charcoal into a sparkling
diamond. James Harb returned to Chicago to take Janet Davies on a
tour of the new shopping emporium and she was kind enough to take
us along.

Information on Glass House |
|
It may look more like an urban office space... but an all-glass structure just built in the Northern suburbs is actually the dream home of architect and builder, Tom Roszak. Lou Canellis was invited in for a tour of the 5,500 square foot home made of concrete, steel and glass. In fact, even the garage is glass!

How about buying a magnificent 14-room mansion from Diamond/Schreiber Homes. 970 Bluff Road is a grand English Tudor with more than 7,600 square feet of stunning living space. This home is like any other home, if you leave out the entertainment area, the wine cellar, the "old world" theatre and the professionally designed golf, tennis, and softball practice studio. In addition, this marvel of a home boasts an elegantly built limestone floor foyer, a beautifully designed powder room containing unique cherry wood cabinetry, and of course, an amazing gourmet kitchen with two Subzero refrigerator/freezers, a Viking Range, and two Bosch Dishwashers.Too much for you to handle?
