At Home in Chicago

Imagine a book that takes you into more than fifty of Chicago's most striking homes. No need to knock or ring. Here's your chance to take a slow ramble through lavish dining rooms, working kitchens, private bedrooms, and cozy patios of homes that reveal the city's 184-year history.

You'll be accompanied by an experienced docent. And you'll join Chicago's preeminent architectural photographer, who will show you things you might never notice. Open your eyes and take in At Home in Chicago: A Living History of the Domestic Architecture in the City, the first comprehensive look at the city's most private residences. You've probably heard of some of these places: Frank Lloyd Wright's sleek Robie House, Mies van der Rohe's groundbreaking 860-880 Lake Shore Drive, Jeanne Gang's sublime Aqua Tower.
