Home Design & Construction in Roscoe Village

Thoughtful architecture, interior design, and construction for Roscoe Village homes. From additions and whole home renovations to kitchens, ADUs, outdoor living, and custom homes, Crimson brings the entire project together under one team.

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.

A SENSE OF PLACE

Make More of Your Chicago Home

Roscoe Village has a character that feels distinctly Chicago.

Tree lined residential streets, classic frame and brick homes, two flats, greystones, and a walkable neighborhood centered around Roscoe Street create a setting where the existing home matters just as much as what you want to change.

For homeowners, that often means finding more potential within the space that is already there.

The kitchen may need to open up. The back of the house may need a better connection to the yard. A growing family may need another bedroom or more usable living space. Or the entire home may need to be reconsidered.

The challenge is doing more without losing what makes the property belong in Roscoe Village.

That means paying attention to the scale of the home, the character of the block, the relationship between old and new, and the realities of working on a Chicago lot.

Crimson approaches the home as a whole, looking at the architecture, interiors, property, and construction together before deciding what should change.

The goal is not simply to add more square footage.

It is to make better use of the home you already have.

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.
