When these home owners called me for a color consultation they warned me the task would be complicated. The home had been in the family for a few generations and was added to repeatedly. Behind the house is a beautiful stream with waterfalls and rock walls which the home curves around as the newer additions ramble along. The great room, which was in essence a barn-like edifice was a different, larger scale then the rest of the home so we decided a single color for the whole place would not create a truly united whole. Instead, we decided to flaunt the barn's butch dimensions by painting it a darker, stronger color then the rest of the home and used the same cream trim color to connect them. The results are a color palette which plays up the home's best features while settling it into the landscape as well. Paint colors are Benjamin Moore.

In this ensuite bathroom, I focused on clean lines, gentle tones and finishes that feel calm rather than clinical. The floating cabinetry helps the room feel more spacious, while the vertical tiles draw the eye upward and add textural interest echoing the trees and leaves outside.
I wanted the space to feel fresh and relaxing without being complicated – somewhere that works beautifully in everyday life but still feels a little bit special too.

This project is an open living and dining space designed to feel calm, warm, and very comfortable for everyday life. We used soft neutral colors, natural wood, and gentle lighting to create a peaceful mood that helps the space feel relaxing and welcoming. The curved shapes of the sofas, chairs, and tables make the room feel softer and more cozy, while the simple clean lines keep it modern and tidy at the same time.
We carefully planned the layout so the living and dining areas connect smoothly and feel open, but still have their own purpose. This makes the space easy to use for daily routines, quiet evenings, or spending time with family and friends. Natural textures, light fabrics, and warm wood tones add depth without making the room feel heavy or complicated.
Our goal was to create a space that feels simple, elegant, and easy to live in — not too formal, not too minimal, but balanced and peaceful. The final result is a bright, soft, and inviting interior where people can truly relax and feel at home.

The roofline on this project was one of the most complicated ones we've ever taken on. The array of roof valleys and hips make the timber frame a perfect 'lid' for this exquisite beach house. The designers and builders attention to details, ensuring that timber details align with trim details and window layout really payed off on the end result. The client, an engineer retired from a successful career in the timber business, was most particular about the wood work, resulting in a home that really showcases craftsmanship and quality wood products.

Our client planned to spend more time in this home and wanted to increase its livability. The project was complicated by the strata-specified deadline for exterior work, the logistics of working in an occupied strata complex, and the need to minimize the impact on surrounding neighbours.
By reducing the deck space, removing the hot tub, and moving out the dining room wall, we were able to add important livable space inside. Our homeowners were thrilled to have a larger kitchen. The additional 500 square feet of living space integrated seamlessly into the existing architecture.
This award-winning home features reclaimed fir flooring (from the Stanley Park storm), and wood-cased sliding doors in the dining room, that allow full access to the outdoor balcony with its exquisite views.
Green building products and processes were used extensively throughout the renovation, which resulted in a modern, highly-efficient, and beautiful home.

Grey is not a universal color when it comes to decorating your interior space. But with the right use, grey can be just as fluttering as any other popular color. When using grey, try not to use too much complicated furniture and decoration pieces as it will ruin the ‘high chic’ feeling. Warmer lighting color, around 2700K-4000K is best for the greyish furnishing as it will prevent the whole area from looking too cold like Miss Havishham’s place.

This Spring Valley yard was an incredibly complicated build. With over 5 stories of elevation change in the yard from the front to the back of the property, creating a sense of consistency and integration was a challenge. The expansive yard demanded a lot of thought be put into the cohesive design elements to make one's area flow with ease from one place to the next. The lengthy water feature, multiple patios and planting areas, all were linked with a multiple allen block retaining walls and sienna stone stairs.

How To Use Small Chandeliers According to Apartment Therapy:
“You can add these to your "words to live by" list: never underestimate the power of good lighting. A beautifully decorated room can end up feeling like a cave and that chair you just had recovered in gorgeous flax colored linen can look sickly green if you lack adequate lighting. It's even more complicated in a small space. Creating the balance between too much and too little light, plus finding fixtures that won't overwhelm a petite space can take some trial and error.”
Since the vast majority of condos and new and renovated homes are now open concept designs. Your lighting design for open concept floor plans should coordinate either in frame type, metal finish color and crystal style. The look should be cohesive but doesn’t have to be “matchy- matchy”...
