Placed within an idyllic beach community, this modern family home is filled with both playful and functional spaces. Natural light reflects throughout and oversized openings allow for movement to the outdoor spaces. Custom millwork completes the kitchen with concealed appliances, and creates a space well suited for entertaining. Accents of concrete add strength and architectural context to the spaces. Livable finishes of white oak and quartz are simple and hardworking. High ceilings in the bedroom level allowed for creativity in children’s spaces, and the addition of colour brings in that sense of playfulness. Art pieces reflect the owner’s time spent abroad, and exude their love of life – which is fitting in a place where the only boundaries to roam are the ocean and railways.

All the moldings in the room were recreated from original patterns. The owners opted out of a tiled splash so as not to conflict with the millwork details.

I kept the design very loose and natural. I chose lots of flowing grasses and perennials with blooms that are repeated in the views in the distance. Photo credit by Marie Buck Photography

This Project began with the style of this kitchen in mind. The open floor plan gives you a beautiful view of the adjoining rooms. The granite in this kitchen was a happy accident as our original selection was over sold. The color tones in the overall space are light and dark to make for a striking contrast!
