Jacob Lukas Design
Elmhurst has welcomed a vibrant addition to its local business community with the opening of Wanderlust. This brick-and-mortar store acts as the retail counterpart to the acclaimed Jakob Lucas Design. For Kurt Miller and Lukas Mack, the duo behind the brand, opening this physical storefront fulfills a long-standing dream to bring their curated vision directly to the public. While they are already nationally recognized for their interior design work, they chose to remain local to Elmhurst to serve their neighbors.
The shop bridges the gap between high-end interior design and creative home decor. Many people admire the look of a professionally designed home but might not be ready to commit to a full-service contract. Wanderlust solves this by allowing you to shop designer looks on your own terms. You can walk in and shop for singular items and find the same caliber of furniture and accessories that appear in their larger projects without needing an appointment.
Walking through the doors feels like entering the vibrant home of a world traveler rather than a standard retail space. The name itself suggests a curiosity about the world, and the collection reflects that spirit. Every item on the shelves has been chosen with a specific point of view. You will find unique textiles, statement lighting, and one-of-a-kind accessories that add character to any room. This level of curation saves you from the fatigue of sorting through endless options online.
The benefit of having a nationally recognized firm anchor a local shop cannot be overstated. It brings a level of authority and trust to your shopping experience. You know that the pieces available have met the standards of industry professionals who work on a national stage. Yet the atmosphere remains welcoming and neighborhood-focused.
Wanderlust encourages you to engage with design in a tactile way. You can feel the weight of a ceramic vase or see how a fabric catches the light. This sensory experience is vital for creating a home that feels comfortable and authentic. Miller and Mack bring their design background to the floor and are ready to guide you toward pieces that fit your style—and that same thoughtful approach extends beyond the showroom through their free in-home interior design consultations. Whether you are hunting for a specific item or just seeking inspiration for a big renovation, Wanderlust invites you to explore. It is a celebration of design that belongs right here in Elmhurst.
