Greenwich CT, modern chic family room. This room boasts modern touches with its decor of Mongolian lamb fur pillows, rattan woven accent chairs, metal side tables, and chrome accents. Birgit Anich Staging & Interiors

Complete redesign of this traditional golf course estate to create a tropical paradise with glitz and glam. The client's quirky personality is displayed throughout the residence through contemporary elements and modern art pieces that are blended with traditional architectural features. Gold and brass finishings were used to convey their sparkling charm. And, tactile fabrics were chosen to accent each space so that visitors will keep their hands busy. The outdoor space was transformed into a tropical resort complete with kitchen, dining area and orchid filled pool space with waterfalls. Photography by Luxhunters Productions

The floral motif also adds to the girly vibe. Andrea repeated the motif with the wallpaper, accent pillows and the light fixture. The repetition keeps the room from feeling too busy and also keeps your eye moving around the space.

Photo: Janis Nicolay A partial renovation and complete furniture package for this home in Vancouver delivered modern and authentic spaces for a young family. The craftsman bones of the house were honoured and a 90’s fireplace was replaced with a modern version that blends into the wainscotting and allows the TV to be recessed above. Modern furniture and lighting were kept in a light neutral palette to emphasize the space and create a feeling of calm treasured after a busy day at the office. A mix of Italian and locally crafted pieces create a layered sense of home and a unique balance of sophistication and casualness. Falken Reynolds added a unique take on Holiday decorating for a feature in Western Living Magazine.

Everyone in a family needs some personal space. The larger the family, the harder it is to carve out enough space to make everyone happy. Custom garage storage and organizational solutions from Tailored Living will make it easier for your family to stay organized and make the best use of personal and shared space. A mom is usually the one most impacted by too little storage space. Not only is it challenging to manage the overall clutter, she must keep on top of the rest of the family about keeping their rooms neat and putting all their “stuff” away. Throw in busy schedules, and the mayhem begins!

Making a house a home for this client who travels frequently on business. The goal was to create an inviting space for the home owner to relax and entertain friends when home in Calgary. Various strategies was employed to bring in warmth, lightness and create visual interest. A pale grey wool area rug was used to break up the large area of dark wood flooring. The dark stone fireplace surround was punctuated with white and reflective decorative accessories. A large round mirror was added to reflect the light and offer visual interest. The homeowner's once lonely grey sofa provided the perfect complement to the warm woods, textural wools and vibrant velvets.
