Kale, Napa cabbage, tomatoes, Swiss chard, assorted herbs....who can resist a backyard garden cornucopia steps away from the kitchen? Think Zone 1 in permaculture design!

This gray rooftop deck made out of composite boards from Fibron in "castle grey," serves as an elegant space for outdoor entertaining. There is plenty of outdoor furniture for a large gathering, custom lattice privacy screens, and a built-in sound system to add to the fun. The customer planters -- made out of composite Azek trim boards -- feature orange mums, cascading vines and ornamental cabbage. Photo by Barbara Rudolf

This modern outdoor living space mere blocks from the beach is replete with all of the best staycation features. There is a cozy, yet refined screened patio space with a glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC) wrapped spa that is situated opposite a Wolf-equipped outdoor dining and seating area. A custom GFRC fireplace with GFRC mantel connects the areas, while providing a touch of privacy. Through the retractable screens, a pair of Restoration Hardware chaise lounge chairs call for a sunning session. To beat the heat our clients can retreat to the pool and recline on the end-to-end sun shelf. Artificial turf and a stretch of Mexican beach pebble frame the pool and generous porcelain coping. Aloe, hibiscus, bamboo muhly, cabbage palms and other tropical landscaping enhance the modern beach aesthetic. Photos by Craig O'Neal

Design & Supply - Astro Design Centre, Ottawa Canada Photo credit: Doublespace Photography. Knowing we wanted to maximize the amount of light and keep the Scandinavian feel, lots of white and blonde woods were used. 6” wide wire-brushed white oak flooring was installed. Farrow & Ball No.2001 Strong White was used on all walls, ceiling and trim. The existing brick fireplace was painted in No.2001 as well to create subtle texture. All interior & exterior doors were then painted out in Farrow & Ball No.31 Railings for a deep inky blue black contrast. The kitchen cabinetry is a combination of natural quarter sawn white oak and matte lacquer maple all done in Astro’s House Brand cabinetry. Simple matte black square knobs complete with back-plate create a crisp graphic quality to warm bright kitchen. The counters are a combination of Caesarstone 1141 Pure White quartz created the low maintenance hardworking surface needed for a young family. Along the stove wall a subtle backsplash was installed. The marble mosaic from Montreal’s very own MUD Tile (sold exclusively via Astro), was used to create depth, elongated hexagon Rock Salt mosaic nods toward the Scandinavian arts and crafts movement. A simple drywall hood fan was used against the mosaic. The fan was painted out in Farrow & Ball’s No.269 Cabbage White to pull the pastel green out of the mosaic.

This small Cabbage Town garden has a relaxed feel with elements of Japanese garden design. A low hardwood boardwalk creates easy access to the lane-way parking and connects the dining and lounging areas. A natural gas fire pit it situated between these two spaces so the warmth can be felt no matter where you sit in the yard.

The polished concrete floors add another texture to this nature-inspired room. A white slip covered sectional fills the corner, creating a cozy place to sit and read.
