This white kitchen is grounded by the dark espresso island. Carrara marble island with wine storage on the side create a beautiful contrast to the white cabinets with the silestone grey countertops and herringbone backsplash tile. This kithchen renovation included the removal of a load bearing wall to open it up and make it feel bright and airy.

The space under the stairs was made useful as a coffee bar and for overflow storage. Ample lighting and a sink make it useful for entertaining as well.

The original design, created by a mom, is simple for kids to use by themselves, and makes books enticing. Large storage capacity but small footprint; holds 85 of your kid’s favourite picture books so they stay organized and off the floor. Tactile 3D alphabet encourages natural letter recognition. Made from quality, sustainable wood, with no MDF. Every purchase you make goes to help kids’ reading charity, Beanstalk.
"Tidy books have perfectly filled the gap between cheap-lasts-a-year children's furniture and the expensive-but-they'll-use-it-at-uni bookcases. The unique design of the bookcase does exactly what they advertise - encourages children to go & pick up books unprompted. My son has gone from ignoring the books stacked on a low shelf to enjoying books he'd pushed away before, simply as he's now empowered by independently making his own choice. The 3D letters on the front of the shelves have encouraged alphabet practising, including when he's in his room alone (& I'm peeking around the door). Thanks Tidybooks." - Lydia, Tidy Books customer.

Designing a home that caters to the needs of the entire family is so important, as it fosters harmony, encourages bonding, and creates a welcoming sanctuary where each member, including pets, feels valued and content. Designing for families involves creating spaces that facilitate togetherness and encourage shared activities. Open floor plans that seamlessly connect living areas, dining spaces, and kitchens promote interaction among family members. A home should not only be aesthetically pleasing, but it should also be comfortable, family-friendly, and pet-friendly.
This home truly reflects the people and pets who reside within it. Each space has carefully chosen artwork and furniture pieces to enhance the living experience.
The indoor-outdoor flow maximizes the penetration of natural light into the home. The glazed areas not only brighten the interior but also create a sense of openness and spaciousness. The extended deck becomes an extension of the interior, providing additional areas for relaxation, entertaining guests, or engaging in various activities. Being able to easily access and enjoy outdoor spaces promotes a sense of tranquility, relaxation, and well-being. It also encourages outdoor activities, such as outdoor dining, or simply unwinding in nature, fostering a healthier and more balanced lifestyle.
