where do you go when you can’t decide between the city and the suburbs?

The always hotly debated decision, city or suburbs, was the topic of conversation at our home tour with Aditi and Archit. Spoiler: they left the city and headed to the suburbs. The couple have settled in a single family home nestled in the tree-lined streets of the quiet suburb of Evanston.

Here are a few of our favorite corners throughout Aditi and Archie’s beautiful Evanston Home.

Aditi and Archit were facing the classic Chicagoan issue: do we want more space outside of the city, or less space and stay in our favorite neighborhood?

We asked the hard hitting questions to dig deeper into their decision to leave the city, and head to the suburbs.

“I think I wanted the space, but I know she wanted to stay in the city. And we looked at a lot of places in the northern neighborhoods, like Lincoln Park, Lakeview. While those units were good, it still felt like we would just stay there for maybe a couple years and then move out. But the moment we saw this place, we were like, we could see ourselves here for a good ten years. It's quiet, it's peaceful. I never realized those were the things I really wanted.”
