Gracious House Showhouse

Another show house invitation!

Get ready for another show house! Sweet Peas Design has been invited to participate in Chicago’s inaugural Gracious House Showhouse, opening next autumn. Susan is one of roughly 10 Chicago-area designers, most from the suburbs, who will create a room in this charming three-level, brick brownstone in the North Center/West Lakeview neighborhood. We are thrilled to help launch this exciting new project, which will benefit Prevent Child Abuse America. The show house is sponsored by Gracious House, a nonprofit organization founded by M. Grace Sielaff to raise awareness for healthy child development and to help prevent child abuse. Grace co-chairs the show house with Susan El-Naggar, principal of Healing Environments and Debbie Auer of Auer Designs Associates. The Sweet Peas team already has trekked out to the house to take some measurements and start the creative process. We find out which room we will get next week.  Stay tuned for periodic updates as work progresses.
