Hi, there! We’re Kim + Scott, Chicago-based home designers creating rooms that feel like a hug. We’ve been building an online community of fellow home-obsessed friends for almost 17 years, and we’re so happy you’re here! Here’s what you might not know about us, on a more personal note.👇

▪️We were neighbors in college, fell in love over our shared joy of music and horror films, married in 2008, and have been together for over 22 years.

▪️Yellow Brick Home started and as a blog in 2009, where we wrote about transforming our builder-grade Chicago condo together – all 650 sq ft of it! The blog is still active today, and the name Yellow Brick Home is an ode to the yellow brick exterior of the condo building, the first home we purchased together in Chicago!

▪️While struggling with infertility (a pain I wish on no one), we booked a weekend away in nearby Sawyer, Michigan to take a brain break. We were instantly smitten with the area, bought a tiny fixer upper, and we now rent that home on Airbnb! (We later found out I was pregnant on that very trip.🥹)

▪️Pet rescue is our passion. We’ve adopted 5 pets together (not all at the same time of course!) and as a small human family of 3, we find endless joy over fostering dogs in search of their forever homes.

▪️Speaking of, we’re a family of 3 by choice, and waiting until our mid-thirties to have a child was intentional (albeit delayed by fertility issues). Our daughter Lucy just turned 8, and we consider ourselves a power trio! We are complete.

▪️We’d describe our style as cozy, classic, and cheeky. We enjoy sharing ways to make your home feel warm and achievable – with a dash of quirk.

▪️Smaller homes have our hearts all day long. A tiny home encourages creativity, outside-of-the-box problem solving, and endless opportunities for togetherness.

▪️We believe in equal rights of all people, love is love, and gun reform NOW, because our kids deserve a safer, better world than the one they’re on track to inherit.

If you’d like to share, we’d love to learn something about you! xx
My favorite part of any design project has arrived. Let’s install some room jewelry!

Still can’t believe how this extension of our kitchen, our pantry turned out! 😍

#LTKHome
Might never get over this transformation.

We were stumped for MONTHS on how to layout this tiny room, mostly because we couldn’t agree on the window. (To keep or not to keep? That was the question!) I’m glad Scott won this round, because with a few tweaks, I was able to convince him that the window would make much more sense in a U-shaped layout.

Whew! 

TLDR, remember this: If you’re embarking on a renovation or makeover, large or small, if something doesn’t quite feel right, it just means you haven’t found the solution yet! 

And if we’ve learned anything from renovating for over a decade, it’s that slow and steady wins the race. Take your time, sketch every idea imaginable, play with colors and patterns, and keep playing until you get that excited feeling in your bones.
Our new pantry is complete !

#LTKHome
The floor to ceiling cabinets pack a mean hidden storage punch! We have more hidden storage than we even know what to do with and we can’t wait to get it all organized.

This pantry has been the extension of our kitchen we dreamed of for our family
