This West Kelowna home was already impressive, but was feeling weighed down by the vast amounts of dark wood. The client was dreaming of a lighter look that had a sophisticated coastal charm.
This home demanded high level, refined furnishings. With this in mind and the fact that it would retain the existing hood fan, flooring and backsplash we chose a completely new and complimentary colour palette. We also selected a new dining table and chairs, coffee table, area carpets, occasional tables and chairs and artisan textiles. To top it off we ordered a custom Czech Replublic hand blown glass pendant arrangement for the dining area.
Before project completion my client had an unforseen move happen. With this change we concluded the project at West Bay and moved our design focus to her new home.
Months later I was excited to find out that the custom glass pendant had arrived and had been carefully installed by the electrician. It was a bittersweet moment as I wasn't able to see the job at completion, but now the project was concluded and I was so happy that the new owners could enjoy our design.

Once dark and weighed down by orange walls, this laundry room has been completely reimagined into a light-filled, uplifting space. New custom cabinetry delivers abundant hidden storage, keeping everyday essentials beautifully organized, while a dedicated laundry sink with a natural stone backsplash brings both function and a touch of luxury. Thoughtful details like pull-out drying racks make daily tasks effortless. The result is a room that feels fresh, bright, and genuinely happy—proof that even the most utilitarian spaces can be a joy to be in.

We completely remade this luxury home’s interior by tearing everything down to its studs and rebuilding it to create soft, contemporary spaces throughout that invite and fascinate.
This space was filled with heavy ornate architectural features inside and outside, including a dated chunky wooden staircase that weighed down the entire front of the home. By reformatting and replacing the fully exposed staircase and loft railing with glass, we were able to open the space and brighten the two-story living room. The oversized diamond-dropping chandelier over the entry doesn’t hurt either! The dining area appears much larger and contemporary with squared-off moldings, metallic wallpaper, unique light fixture, and bold artwork.
Bold exciting choices were made in both bathrooms when choosing tiles and slabs. These stone pieces are focal points and statement pieces garnering attention from everyone who enters. And, speaking of bold stone choices, the 10ft. book-matched porcelain slab installation in the living room is nothing less than a striking work of art.
Our client gave us a 7-month deadline. No problem we love a challenge and as you can see, we delivered and on budget!

The client felt weighed down by the family heirlooms that she couldn’t bear to part with, but couldn’t imagine them in her own home.
RESULTS
We created a “new traditional” - integrating old family heirlooms and discovering the beauty among the relics. She is now proud to show the history that tells the story of one family.

Dark railing against light spindles is a great way to add dimension without weighing the space down. This Cyber Space banister is a great example! The window trim is painted Gaunlet Gray and bridges the downstairs paint color with the lighter feeling upstairs hallway.

This automated gate was installed for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The gate has an opening of 20’ and it weighs 1,200 lbs. The gate uses the CGS-350.8P carriages and is automated using the All-O-Matic slide gate operator model SL100DC.

We made this bed using reclaimed barn beams. It weighs around 1500 lbs. The wall is clad in reclaimed barn siding. We mixed and matched the colors to create interest. The faux beams are comprised of reclaimed barn siding and cover the collar ties that hold the roof rafters in this third floor master bedroom. The reclaimed door is from an old office building and leads to the master bath.

No more heavy lifting! Base mixer cabinet storage keeps the appliance plugged in & out of sight until ready to use then lifts up with ease. SubZero built in refrigerator with custom storage built into the cabinets. Photos by: Jeri Koegel
