Existing 1950's Fir Flooring in this mid-century charmer was refinished in a natural oil finish. Salvaged fir flooring was sourced and feathered in to the kitchen and bathroom to match, creating a seamless wall to wall wood floor bungalow. Against the white washed decor, these floors really add a pop of colour.

The values held in the Rocky Mountains and a Colorado family’s strong sense of community merged perfectly in the La Torretta Residence, a home which captures the breathtaking views offered by Steamboat Springs, Colorado, and features Zola’s Classic Clad and Classic Wood lines of windows and doors.

This modern bathroom remodel utilized natural light and organic, fluid tile design to create a sense of tranquility. The creative use of multi-colored pebble tiles, contrasting grout tones and outside-the-box design elements make the space feel lighthearted and playful, as well as spacious and grounding. The floors were salvaged from a local high school gym and the door leading into the master bathroom was custom made with a window re-light that aligns with the window in the shower. This allows for fluidity of light and space when the door is in the open position.

This Craftsman style home is nestled into Mission Hills. It was built in 1914 and has the historic designation as a craftsman style home. The homeowner wanted to update her master bathroom. This project took an 11.5’ x 8.5 room that was cut into two smaller, chopped up spaces (see original construction plan) and converted it into a larger more cohesive on-suite master bathroom. The homeowner is an artist with a rustic, eclectic taste. So, we first made the space extremely functional, by opening up the room’s interior into one united space. We then created a unique antiqued bead board vanity and furniture-style armoire with unique details that give the space a nod to it’s 1914 history. Additionally, we added some more contemporary yet rustic amenitities with a granite vessel sink and wall mounted faucet in oil-rubbed bronze. The homeowner loves the view into her back garden, so we emphasized this focal point, by locating the vanity underneath the window, and placing an antique mirror above it. It is flanked by two, hand-blown Venetian glass pendant lights, that also allow the natural light into the space. We commissioned a custom-made chandelier featuring antique stencils for the center of the ceiling. The other side of the room features a much larger shower with a built-in bench seat and is clad in Brazilian multi-slate and a pebble floor. A frameless glass shower enclosure also gives the room and open, unobstructed view and makes the space feel larger. The room features it’s original Douglas Fur Wood flooring, that also extends through the entire home. The project cost approximately $27,000.
