This interior design project of a south Devon estuary house, is a stunning example of Studio G’s dedication to enhancing light, space and structure to create an extraordinary luxury home tailored to the taste and lifestyle of the owners. It is a beautiful representation of a tranquil riverside residence with harmonious, balanced interiors inspired by nature. The design philosophy for this tidal estuary house is centred on a seamless blend of natural charm and contemporary elegance, creating a resilient and inviting family home with a soothing, laidback feel. • Celebrating the estuary setting: Expansive glazing and an open-plan layout were utilised to flood interiors with light and frame the surrounding views. The coastal palette—soft sands, weathered driftwood, and sea-washed blues—layers the interior, bringing the outside in. • Harmonising style: A harmonious interior blends rustic Devon charm with contemporary sophistication. Scandinavian minimalism and Danish mid-century furniture set the tone—clean lines, warm woods, and understated elegance ensure visual continuity and timeless appeal. • Designed for living: Durability and ease of use were paramount. Low-maintenance surfaces and finishes were selected to withstand the rhythms of daily life while preserving refinement and comfort, supporting an active yet stylish lifestyle. • Fostering connection: Inviting zones for socialising, from a generous open-plan kitchen to outdoor terraces, encourage gathering and conversation, all while maintaining the home’s cohesive aesthetic and affinity to its natural surroundings.

The Harlow's outdoor patio is seamlessly connected to the living room through a sliding glass door, creating a harmonious transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. This convenient access allows for easy flow and encourages a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor activities. Whether you're enjoying a cozy evening by the fireplace or hosting a gathering with friends, the sliding glass door opens up the living room to the refreshing outdoor patio, extending your living space and providing a picturesque view of the surrounding environment. The patio becomes an extension of the living room, offering an inviting area for relaxation, entertainment, and enjoying the natural beauty of the outdoors.

This multi-zone playroom is a dream come true for a family with a teenaged boy and two tween girls! With a hangout area full of bean bags, disco balls, a neon peace sign and a modern acrylic bubble chair, an indoor basketball court with a padded floor, and a climbing wall and foam pit (perfect for dunking baskets and crashing in), there’s no shortage of fun. The multiple swings—like the aerial silks for flips and the trapeze—add to the excitement. We kept the space open, with distinct zones for each activity, and used different flooring to make each zone feel unique while keeping the family together. The calming green color adds a pop of vibrancy, while the art area encourages the kids to express their creativity. Whether it's blowing off steam on the climbing wall or getting together with friends, this playroom has quickly become the family’s favorite hangout spot.

Guadalajara, San Clemente Coastal Modern Remodel This major remodel and addition set out to take full advantage of the incredible view and create a clear connection to both the front and rear yards. The clients really wanted a pool and a home that they could enjoy with their kids and take full advantage of the beautiful climate that Southern California has to offer. The existing front yard was completely given to the street, so privatizing the front yard with new landscaping and a low wall created an opportunity to connect the home to a private front yard. Upon entering the home a large staircase blocked the view through to the ocean so removing that space blocker opened up the view and created a large great room. Indoor outdoor living was achieved through the usage of large sliding doors which allow that seamless connection to the patio space that overlooks a new pool and view to the ocean. A large garden is rare so a new pool and bocce ball court were integrated to encourage the outdoor active lifestyle that the clients love. The clients love to travel and wanted display shelving and wall space to display the art they had collected all around the world. A natural material palette gives a warmth and texture to the modern design that creates a feeling that the home is lived in. Though a subtle change from the street, upon entering the front door the home opens up through the layers of space to a new lease on life with this remodel.

Ryan Theed Thoughtfully designed contemporary kids space that balances playfulness with the home's refined aesthetic.

This residence embraces a light, open, and contemporary aesthetic, defined by warmth, simplicity, and a sense of effortless sophistication. A soft, neutral palette is layered with natural materials, subtle textures, and thoughtfully considered accents, creating an interior that feels fresh, inviting, and refined. The home's modern exterior transitions seamlessly into bright, airy interiors, where clean lines, generous natural light, and carefully selected furnishings create a sense of openness and calm. Intentional spatial planning, understated lighting, and a balance of form and function allow each space to feel cohesive, comfortable, and elevated while remaining warm and approachable. Designed with a modern young family in mind, the home balances contemporary refinement with the ease and energy of everyday life. Open, flexible spaces encourage connection, creativity, and togetherness, while a natural relationship between the interior and exterior creates a seamless flow throughout the home. Thoughtful transitions between shared living areas and outdoor spaces invite family gatherings, quiet moments, and everyday activities to unfold naturally. The result is a home that feels bright, welcoming, and timeless—designed to support connection, comfort, and the evolving rhythms of family life.

The goal of the Bridle Path Residence was to create a modern take on the original 1950’s split level and leverage multi-functional spaces to minimize the required square footage and maximize daily use of each space. The result is a 2800 SF 3-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom residence with a detached 400 SF ADU. Both structures are the result of strategic additional square footage and a bold yet edited material palette. Conservative sleeping quarters are juxtaposed by spacious common living and entertaining areas. Thoughtfully placed windows allow light without sacrificing privacy. The homeowners wanted to maintain the outdoor space but add some breathing room to the interiors. The existing carport was used to add the bulk of the additional space while the footprint on the main house and ADU were extended as minimally as possible to reduce impervious impacts and maintain existing topography. Interior spaces are designed to encourage family time and push activity outside. The process was collaboration in its purest form between architect, client and contractor.

The Rivercourt Condominiums feature 24 residences on four levels with panoramic views of the Milwaukee River. The floor plans for each of these homes create a contemporary and inviting atmosphere capitalizing on a connection to the outdoors via sliding glass doors which open onto large balconies for outdoor living space. The use of corner glazing and eight-foot tall windows within the rooms provide framed views of nature and the nearby Milwaukee River. Two landscaped courtyards provide natural sunlight to all sides of the building and encourage residents to take full advantage of their proximity to the river’s edge. Residents enjoy pedestrian activity on the neighborhood river walk, as well as rowing and boating on the Milwaukee River. Completion Date July 2004

This North York home renovation was designed to perfectly suit a vibrant professional couple, their two active teenagers, and their pets, combining beauty and functionality to match their busy lifestyle. The home needed a functional overhaul, particularly in the kitchen, powder room, master ensuite, and underutilized basement. The clients, eager for an upgrade but short on time, entrusted the project to a team that prioritized communication, thoughtful design, and a seamless process. The kitchen was completely reimagined with custom cabinetry, maximizing storage and accessibility. A redesigned island now allows access from all sides, improving flow for cooking and family gatherings. New countertops, contemporary flooring, and a balanced mix of crisp tiles and warm wall tones created a cohesive, inviting atmosphere. The master ensuite was transformed into a luxurious retreat with elegant stone-style tiles, an expanded glass-enclosed shower, and a striking tiled feature wall framing the bathtub, delivering both beauty and improved functionality. To refresh the powder room and entryway on a budget, professional grout cleaning gave existing tiles a new life. Modern lighting and bright wallpaper added charm and energy, welcoming guests into the home. The basement, tailored for the teens and pets, became a cozy entertainment space, separated by subtle partitions for added privacy and comfort. One notable challenge involved seamlessly transitioning between wood-look porcelain tiles in the kitchen and the existing hardwood floors—a task achieved through careful planning and execution, ensuring a flawless blend. A highlight of the project came when the client saw the near-final result and expressed amazement at the transformation, calling it a “WOW factor.” The result is a home that perfectly balances style and practicality. The streamlined kitchen, spa-like ensuite, refreshed powder room, and tailored basement now enhance daily life and encourage quality time as a family. This project stands as a testament to thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship, creating a space that reflects the family’s energy and personality while supporting their needs for years to come.
