These clients hired us to add warmth and personality to their builder home. The fell in love with the layout and main level master bedroom, but found the home lacked personality and style. They hired us, with the caveat that they knew what they didn't like, but weren't sure exactly what they wanted. They were challenged by the narrow layout for the family room. They wanted to ensure that the fireplace remained the focal point of the space, while giving them a comfortable space for TV watching. They wanted an eating area that expanded for holiday entertaining. They were also challenged by the fact that they own two large dogs who are like their children. The entry is very important. It's the first space guests see. This one is subtly dramatic and very elegant. We added a grasscloth wallpaper on the walls and painted the tray ceiling a navy blue. The hallway to the guest room was painted a contrasting glue green. A rustic, woven rugs adds to the texture. A simple console is simply accessorized. Our first challenge was to tackle the layout. The family room space was extremely narrow. We custom designed a sectional that defined the family room space, separating it from the kitchen and eating area. A large area rug further defined the space. The large great room lacked personality and the fireplace stone seemed to get lost. To combat this, we added white washed wood planks to the entire vaulted ceiling, adding texture and creating drama. We kept the walls a soft white to ensure the ceiling and fireplace really stand out. To help offset the ceiling, we added drama with beautiful, rustic, over-sized lighting fixtures. An expandable dining table is as comfortable for two as it is for ten. Pet-friendly fabrics and finishes were used throughout the design. Rustic accessories create a rustic, finished look.

King West Loft

High Street Design

http://downtownphotos.ca/ | When purchased in 2009 this 900 sq ft one bedroom, two bathroom unit combining both classic and industrial finishes was predominantly olive green and in need of an update. With the help of several more neutral wall colours, along with almost all new furnishings and a pop of "Holt Renfrew" pink, this soft loft was transformed into a slightly feminine yet urban and still quite industrial space. The master bedroom is a glamorous take on rustic, traditional Canadian decor by combining an iridescent damask accent wall, silk curtains and a unique vintage chandelier with Canadian artwork, a classic Hudson's Bay blanket and an exotic cowhide rug. The end result is a warm and inviting retreat from the more modern open concept main living area perfect for entertaining.
