The Anteroom at DJ’s Great Room

The Anteroom at DJ’s Great Room in Chicago is a moody parlor bar that blends vintage charm with modern sophistication. Siren Betty Design brings hand-finished walls, curated artwork, and a warm palette together to shape an intimate, elegant interior where conversation and connection unfold naturally.

Tucked beside DJ’s Great Room, The Anteroom feels both timeless and unexpected. It’s a study in mood and detail, where soft light, vintage art prints, and custom finishes create a setting that is equally suited for quiet drinks or lively late-night conversations. The hand-finished walls and ceiling, crafted by local decorative artists, give the space an unmistakable patina and personality. Plush seating and layered textures encourage lingering, while subtle touches of gold and deep color add warmth and allure. The design celebrates intimacy and character without pretension. The Anteroom lingers in memory, an intimate reflection of Siren Betty Design’s instinct for creating stories through space and atmosphere.
