The new Owners of this property on the Oxtongue River in the Township of Algonquin Highlands contacted us with the intention to renovate the existing house they had bought.
The design priorities for this project centred around providing a comfortable interior with sufficient space for the Owners (from London, England) to visit with Canadian family members during Summer vacations.
The floor plan for this house includes 5 Bedrooms (3 on the First floor, and 2 in the Walkout Basement), 2 Bathrooms, an open-concept Kitchen/ Living/ Dining Room, Entry Hall, Recreation Room and Laundry Room. A woodstove in the Living Room offers a comforting radiant heat-source.

Custom Outdoor Kitchen Backsplash Detail
A closer look at one of our custom outdoor kitchen builds. This mosaic tile backsplash adds character while standing up to heat, moisture, and everyday use. Every material choice is intentional, from the tile pattern to the concrete countertop edge.
Pro Tip: Outdoor kitchens should always be designed with drainage, ventilation, and material expansion in mind. Cutting corners here leads to costly repairs later.

We had the pleasure of working with a sweet retired couple in Hermitage to bring warm cottage charm to their new home. This living room update reimagined a builder-grade fireplace wall with a thoughtfully designed layout, color palette, and custom built-in finishes, creating a feature wall that set the tone for the entire space. Soft green cabinetry, shiplap, warm wood accents, and tailored built-ins add character and function while anchoring the room. The result is a cozy, inviting living room filled with charm and intention, brought to life in collaboration with Maple & Oak Construction.

2025 Parade of Homes Award winning home- The Bay Haus is a unique cabin with an industrial design located on the shoreline of Flathead Lake. It is quaint, efficient and designed with simplicity in mind. The window wall captures attention as you step into the home, and invites you to take in the views of the lake. At first glance, the craftsmanship of the Bay Haus is subtle, but after just a few minutes in the home, the artisan details begin to intrigue you. The floating stairwell with custom screen, the internal steel moment frame, and the handmade tile in the bathrooms are just a few captivating details. Every detail was selected with intentionality.

Simultaneously comfortable and elegant, this executive home makes excellent use of Showplace Cabinetry throughout its open floor plan. The contrasting design elements found within this newly constructed home are very intentional, blending bright and clean sophistication with splashes of earthy colors and textures. In this home, painted white kitchen cabinets are anything but ordinary.
Visually stunning from every angle, the homeowners have created an open space that not only reflects their personal sense of informed design, but also ensures it will feel livable to younger family members and approachable to their guests. A home where sweet little moments will create lasting memories.

The proposal analyzes the site as a series of existing flows or “routes” across the landscape. The negotiation of both constructed and natural systems establishes the logic of the site plan and the orientation and organization of the new home. Conceptually, the project becomes a highly choreographed knot at the center of these routes, drawing strands in, engaging them with others, and propelling them back out again. The project’s intent is to capture and harness the physical and ephemeral sense of these latent natural movements as a way to promote in the architecture the wanderlust the surrounding landscape inspires. At heart, the client’s initial family agenda--a home as antidote to the city and basecamp for exploration--establishes the ethos and design objectives of the work.

The client owns a wine vineyard in France, therefore we incorporated the French Limestone. We also had the logo of the clients Vineyard etched into a custom granite piece, keeping subtle hints of his passion throughout the space.
