la salle de bain est une des rares pièces de la maison à être restée à sa place. D'une salle de bain année 70/80 totalement mal agencée on est passé à une pièce claire, chaleureuse et sobrement décorée. Les matériaux sont issus de la grande distribution, tout en restant de qualité, afin de limiter les coûts. Dans le même esprit, le meuble vasques a été dessiné puis réalisé avec de simples planches découpées et vernies

The principle bathroom was completely reconstructed and a new doorway formed to the adjoining bedroom. We retained the original vanity unit and had the marble top and up stand's re-polished. The two mirrors above are hinged and provide storage for lotions and potions. To the one end we had a shaped wardrobe with drawers constructed to match the existing detailing - this proved extremely useful as it disguised the fact that the wall ran at an angle behind. Every cm of space was utilised. Above the bath and doorway (not seen) was storage for suitcases etc.

Complete Renovation

Winner of the 2018 Tour of Homes Best Remodel, this whole house re-design of a 1963 Bennet & Johnson mid-century raised ranch home is a beautiful example of the magic we can weave through the application of more sustainable modern design principles to existing spaces. We worked closely with our client on extensive updates to create a modernized MCM gem. Extensive alterations include: - a completely redesigned floor plan to promote a more intuitive flow throughout - vaulted the ceilings over the great room to create an amazing entrance and feeling of inspired openness - redesigned entry and driveway to be more inviting and welcoming as well as to experientially set the mid-century modern stage - the removal of a visually disruptive load bearing central wall and chimney system that formerly partitioned the homes’ entry, dining, kitchen and living rooms from each other - added clerestory windows above the new kitchen to accentuate the new vaulted ceiling line and create a greater visual continuation of indoor to outdoor space - drastically increased the access to natural light by increasing window sizes and opening up the floor plan - placed natural wood elements throughout to provide a calming palette and cohesive Pacific Northwest feel - incorporated Universal Design principles to make the home Aging In Place ready with wide hallways and accessible spaces, including single-floor living if needed - moved and completely redesigned the stairway to work for the home’s occupants and be a part of the cohesive design aesthetic - mixed custom tile layouts with more traditional tiling to create fun and playful visual experiences - custom designed and sourced MCM specific elements such as the entry screen, cabinetry and lighting - development of the downstairs for potential future use by an assisted living caretaker - energy efficiency upgrades seamlessly woven in with much improved insulation, ductless mini splits and solar gain
