CHICAGO SERVICE AREA

Design and Construction Throughout Chicagoland

Crimson Design & Construction works with homeowners throughout Chicago on renovations, additions, custom homes, and other substantial residential projects.

Chicago homes have a lot of character. Some need a better layout. Some need more space. Others need a complete transformation while preserving the parts that make the property special.

Since 2000, Crimson Design & Construction has helped homeowners throughout Chicago, Naperville, the North Shore, and Chicagoland create homes that work better for the way they live. Founded by Glenn with the goal of bringing architecture and contracting together, Crimson has grown into a team of architects, designers, and builders working together under one roof.

CHICAGO RESIDENIIAL PROJECIS

Transforming

Chicago Homes

A renovation should solve more than a cosmetic problem.

Maybe the kitchen is separated from the rest of the home. Maybe the bedrooms no longer fit the needs of the family. Maybe the basement is unfinished, the first fioor feels cramped, or the house simply does not function the way it used to.

Those are design problems as much as construction problems.

Crimson works with Chicago homeowners to understand what is not working, determine what the home can become, and develop a plan for the transformation.

SAME NEIGHBORHOODS.

NEW POSSIBILITIES.

Make Better Use of the Home You Already Have

A well-planned renovation can change the way an existing home functions without requiring you to leave the neighborhood you love.

Create More Space

When the existing footprint is not enough, an addition can create room for bedrooms, bathrooms, living areas, kitchens, offices, and other spaces your household needs.

Bring the Whole Home Together

For larger renovations, the opportunity is bigger than updating individual rooms.

Layout, architecture, materials, lighting and finishes can all be considered together to create a more cohesive home.

Respect What Makes the Home Different

Chicago has homes with distinct architectural details and established character. New work should respond to what is already there rather than treating the existing home as something to simply cover up.

THE CRIMSON PROCESS

FROM FIRST CONVERSATION
TO FINAL DETAIL.

A major home project should not feel like a series of handoffs, guesses, and surprises. Crimson brings architecture, interior design, documentation, permitting, and construction together under one team, giving you a clear path from the first conversation to the finished home.

01 DISCOVER

We start by looking at what is actually there and understanding what you want the home to become. We visit the property, study the existing conditions, talk through how you live, and discuss the scope, budget, timing, and requirements that will shape the project.

02 DESIGN

Your project takes shape through architecture, interior design, 3D modeling, and detailed planning. We develop the design around how you want the home to function while keeping construction, budget, and local requirements in the conversation.

03 RESOLVE

Before we move into construction, we work through the details that can create uncertainty later. Selections are made, construction documents are completed, engineering and permitting are coordinated, and the project is priced around the decisions you have actually made.

04 BUILD

Once construction begins, our design and construction teams remain connected. We coordinate the work, manage the schedule, communicate progress, and keep you informed about what is happening and what comes next. When the work is complete, we walk the project with you, address the final details, complete closeout, and make sure you have what you need moving forward.
