A restrained renovation and full interior scope bring clarity, comfort, and color to a modernist landmark.
Chicago, IL (Marina Towers)

Architectural Design + Interiors by En Masse
Drawing from the building’s 1960s origins, its nautical undertones, and the client’s adventurous energy, the result is warm, colorful, and quietly bold. A mix of modern and vintage pieces sit comfortably alongside personal artifacts, creating a space that feels casual but composed, full of personality but easy to live in.
For a client looking to downsize and simplify, Marina City offered the perfect setting: mid-century bones, stunning river views, and just enough room to live well. En Masse took on a partial renovation—reworking cabinetry, adding a washer-dryer, and introducing new built-ins—while leading a full interiors scope that included furnishings, window treatments, upholstery, and paint.
