Luxury isn't just about square footage; it's about how you live
Whether you're leasing a high-rise in River North or a sleek loft in the West Loop, your apartment can offer the same elevated experience as a boutique hotel or private residence. At Strato Living, we help renters not only find their ideal apartment, but also unlock a lifestyle that feels refined, stylish, and effortless.
Here are 5 ways to live luxuriously in your Chicago apartment, no matter your floor plan.
Set the Mood with Lighting
Good lighting changes everything. Swap out standard bulbs for warm, dimmable LEDs or install plug-in smart lighting you can control by voice. Add accent lamps or floor lighting to create depth and drama, especially in spaces with skyline views.

Create a Spa-Worthy Bathroom
Upgrade your bathroom with plush white towels, eucalyptus bundles in the shower, a bath tray for wine or candles, and your favorite skincare lineup. Think “hotel suite,” not just utility.
Scent Is Everything
Luxury is a feeling, and scent is a shortcut. Diffusers, high-end candles, or incense create an inviting environment the moment you walk through the door. Try notes like sandalwood, amber, or bergamot for that upscale aroma.
Make the View the Vibe
If you’re lucky enough to have a Chicago skyline, river, or lake view, lean into it. Keep windows clean, use minimal window treatments, and position your furniture to frame the view. Let the city be your backdrop.
At Strato Living, we don't just lease apartments, we match you with a lifestyle.
You’re seeking an elegant studio in the Gold Coast or a two-bedroom with a rooftop pool in South Loop, we’ll help you find your next home with intention.
