Inspiration for a modern kitchen remodel in Los Angeles

Malleability and a linear pattern inspire the Travertino Grigio Venato Bocciardato. Italian travertine is characterised by a background in subtle shades of grey, featuring highly distinctive pale veining which leads the eye across the horizontal or vertical surface. And it is on surfaces, whether flooring or cladding for interiors or exteriors, that Laminam envisages formulas and technological processes deriving from the most precious resource available in nature: raw materials.

The Gamaches’ kitchen is now up to date through the magic of refacing. All of the doors and drawer faces have been replaced with new crystal-white polymer shaker-style doors to brighten up the room and give it a modern, structured appearance. The addition of glass doors lends a certain depth and visual clearance to the right of the window, while maintaining storage space. The area above the upper cabinets was closed off with the aid of soffits with straight crown molding for a modern touch. Finally, a glossy white backsplash in recycled subway tile was added to complete the upscale look already in place thanks to the magnificent white quartz marbled countertop. La cuisine des Gamache est désormais au goût du jour grâce à la magie du refacing. L’ensemble des portes et des façades de tiroir ont été remplacées par de nouvelles portes style shaker en polymère blanc cristal afin d’éclaircir la pièce et lui donner une allure moderne structurée. L’ajout de portes en verre amène une certaine profondeur ainsi qu’un dégagement visuel à droite de la fenêtre, tout en gardant de l’espace de rangement. La fermeture du haut des armoires a été fait à l’aide d’un silence muni de ogees droits pour une touche de modernité. Enfin, un dosseret sera prochainement ajouté (tuile métro revisitée blanc lustré), pour compléter l’effet luxueux déjà en place grâce au magnifique comptoir de quartz blanc à effet marbré.

This waterfront pool project in Beaconsfield reimagines a transitional backyard by fusing timeless warmth with crisp modern geometry. At its heart lies a custom concrete pool whose expansive beach entry pool—also known as a generous tanning ledge—slopes gently into the water, delivering the relaxed feel of a private resort. A frameless glass pool fence with low-iron panels preserves unobstructed lake vistas while ensuring safety, allowing the pool’s shimmering surface to merge visually with the open water beyond. Anchoring the far end of the basin is a dramatic outdoor fire feature that rises directly from the waterline. By day it acts as a sculptural focal point; by night the flames ripple across the water, transforming the space into a show-stopping luxury swimming pool experience. Every contour, drainage line, and equipment specification was shaped by Northstone’s in-house landscape architect design team and executed by our 180-strong crew of specialists, reinforcing our reputation as the go-to Beaconsfield pool builder for bespoke, high-end projects. Because Northstone is an entirely in-house design build firm, we streamline all stages—city permits, excavation, steel placement, shotcrete, and finishing—under a single roof. This turnkey approach distinguishes us among Montreal pool construction companies and ensures flawless craftsmanship in every pour. It is also why clients seeking a custom pool contractor to create a resort-style backyard consistently choose Northstone. That commitment to quality has earned us the #1 ranking for landscaping on bestinMTL.com and the top spot for pool design-build on bestmontrealservices.com. Our work has been showcased in Dwell, House & Home, the Montreal Gazette, and Living Luxe Magazine, underscoring our status as Montreal’s premier high-end pool company for luxury outdoor living on lakefront properties.
