Looking for an Architect in the Chicagoland Area
We are looking to renovate our 1920's bungalow and need the help of an architect for a consultation. We are in the VERY beginning stages. We'd prefer someone who has worked on craftsman style homes and can preserve the architectual integrity of our home. Know of anyone who fits the bill? Any recommendations would be great!

We used Raino-Ogden Architects for remodel designs and really liked his work. (He actually lives in the house of Frank Lloyd Wright's lead architect!) The firm is pretty small and you'll get lots of personal attention. My husband is a huge arts & crafts fan; I like it but didnt' want to live in a museum. David did a good job of incorporate Craftsman elements while still keeping the space modern.

We have used David Raino Ogden (located in Lincoln Park). He is great and would be great for your place....he lives in a Frank Loyd Wright (or an apprentice) house so he knows and loves that period-style.
His contact info:773/528-6510

Hi R.,
We also are bungalow owners looking for some help to start doing some renovation. We live in Oak Park. If/when you find someone, pls pass along the references to me too! Maybe we can strike a discount for services if you approach the architect w/ 2 homeowners....?
Feel free to email me whenever!

Since Sanjay is also an Interior Designer, he pays great attention to detail--he has also worked in La Grange before. I asked him if he has availability to take on new projects right now, and he was very interested. When you call him, please mention you got his number from V. DiMario.
Good luck with your house project.
