Located on a lovely lake in the Kazabazua area of Quebec, this 3+2 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath, 4-season cottage is based on an inspiration plan our clients brought to us. It has been significantly customized to suit the young family. They enjoy both summer and winter sports — wakeboarding, kayaking, biking, hiking, downhill skiing, and snowmobiling — and love to entertain family and friends. The family spends as much time as possible at their lakefront property and the cottage design includes everything you would expect in a modern home. The open-concept kitchen, dining room, and great room feature a wall of windows towards the lake and a fireplace with built-ins. The dining area easily accommodates the family and visitors for meals overlooking the lake. An extensive deck off the dining room provides both a covered and open area and the spacious sunroom will comfortably seat a large group and extend the summer season into spring and fall. Along with two guest rooms, the walkout basement features a large rec room with lots of windows for a view of the lake. Abundant storage space includes a room for sporting goods, a pantry, and a massive walk-in closet. A full bathroom, mudroom, and mechanical/laundry room round out the lower level, and a side door provides access to the lower patio.

This classic post-and-beam house sits on a ridge in the Riviera neighborhood of Santa Barbara, CA. With stunning views of Gibraltar Rock, Mission Canyon, and Cielito Overlook, the house’s original designers sited it perfectly and implemented an elegantly simple structural system based on a clear design vision. Unfortunately, several subsequent owners lacked that same clarity and made questionable remodeling choices based on passing style fads, effectively turning the house into something it was not and – most perplexing of all – turning their backs to the majesty of the surrounding mountains and valley. Working with the new owner, who saw through the noise of these misguided remodels, we set out to return the house to its roots and recreate its rhythmic geometry and interior flow. We added new wall-to-wall double sliding doors that open to the expansive northern views, bringing space and light to the living, dining, and kitchen areas and providing easy access to the surrounding natural environment. We also reconsidered the color palette and materials, simplified detailing and trim, and highlighted interior focal points such as the original slump block fireplace and newly remodeled kitchen. The house now entertains easily and provides a comfortable and gracious living space for its owner and guests.

Make the Smart Choice! Smart people pay attention to what matters. When people visit your home they won’t be impressed as easily, but they will notice shoddy furniture immediately. It’s human nature to find flaws and problems quicker than solutions. Whenever you enter a home, you look at the furniture. Sadly people often overlook a key piece which is dining chairs. And this thing can be a big problem once you actually sit on the chair. Most chairs look good but when you sit on them, they are actually quite uncomfortable. Imagine having guests over. They love your home and compliment you on your fine taste. When it comes to dinner, they approach the dining table and take their seats. And bam, they start fidgeting in their chairs. Uncomfortable dining chairs can ruin the best dinners and make your home look dull. With these fine dining chairs, you can avoid both a dull look and uncomfortable seats. Designed with a combo of stainless steel and bi-cast leather, these dining chairs provide an interesting design with the incorporation of arm rests. The chairs have a modern look over all and will definitely look great with any modern artsy looking dining table.
