gracie finch

interior designer

For Gracie, life is about balance.

Her father worked in a family business that spanned generations while her mother would make small adjustments to keep the peace in her childhood home. As a designer, she enjoys spaces that envelop you and create a visually attractive canopy, but also feels at home in the openness of Chicago’s lakefront path. She likes to travel and escape to faraway adventures, but can’t pass up being close to family in Lakeview.

With only a detour to Ohio to earn her degree in Fine Arts from Miami University, this Chicagoland native is at home in the Windy City. Professionally, she has worked in residential and commercial projects from the beginning through the end, balancing out the big picture questions with the execution of the smallest details.

When she’s not working, she enjoys going to concerts, cooking recipes from her Spanish heritage, and people watching.
