MILKdesign Company started in 1998 in a loft on Chicago's west side. We started out a modern design furniture company has evolved over time into a Stair and Railing Design/ Fabrication/ Installation Company with the focus still entirely modern. MILK has earned the reputation as the finest metal craftsmen in Chicago, still fabricating for Christian Liaigre, Holly Hunt, and select others, they have applied their furniture quality craft to stairs and railings. MILK is the place to go for beautiful stairs and railings and we feel the staircase should be held as the most focal point in a home. GREEN is the FUTURE and stainless steel as well as mild steel both share the same highly recycled quality. While the amount varies from heat to heat based upon factors such as cost of contained elements, scrap availability and desired residual levels; typically, a new heat of stainless steel will be made up of a scrap charge, or recycled content of 75%. This means that 75% of the finished stainless steel we use for our railings os recycled and milld steel, which we construct our stairs from, which can get up to 95% recycled. MILKdesign works throughout North America and i eager to expand to other areas. We provide full shop drawings for sign-off, fabrication documentation, and handle all of our own installations unless another process is arranged. We have a line of railings available and are developing a line of stairs from our existing body of work, we can work to specification when necessary but prefer to at least collaborate. Joe Colosi

Storage Solutions - A tall metal appliance door (WACTT) rolls up smoothly to reveal adjustable shelves positioned only a few inches apart for tray storage. A tall tambour cabinet (WACTT) provides centralized storage while adjusting shelves are precisely posisioned of maximum organization. “Loft” Living originated in Paris when artists established studios in abandoned warehouses to accommodate the oversized paintings popular at the time. Modern loft environments idealize the characteristics of their early counterparts with high ceilings, exposed beams, open spaces, and vintage flooring or brickwork. Soaring windows frame dramatic city skylines, and interior spaces pack a powerful visual punch with their clean lines and minimalist approach to detail. Dura Supreme cabinetry coordinates perfectly within this design genre with sleek contemporary door styles and equally sleek interiors. This kitchen features Moda cabinet doors with vertical grain, which gives this kitchen its sleek minimalistic design. Lofted design often starts with a neutral color then uses a mix of raw materials, in this kitchen we’ve mixed in brushed metal throughout using Aluminum Framed doors, stainless steel hardware, stainless steel appliances, and glazed tiles for the backsplash.

This tiered garden drops 5' in elevation over its 40' depth. To provide a large outdoor entertaining space, tiered patio spaces were created, and surrounded with glass railings to maintain a wide open appeal. The antique brick of the house was matched in the planter walls and then steel beams and cladding were added to create a contemporary industrial feel. A small green space in the bottom of the garden is surrounded by a Beech hedge and features a water weir. Artificial sod was used to surface this heavily shaded space under a canopy of century oaks.
