This was a challenging project for very discerning clients. The home was originally owned by the client’s father, and she inherited it when he passed. Care was taken to preserve the history in the home while upgrading it for the current owners. This home exceeds current energy codes, and all mechanical and electrical systems have been completely replaced. The clients remained in the home for the duration of the reno, so it was completed in two phases. Phase 1 involved gutting the basement, removing all asbestos containing materials (flooring, plaster), and replacing all mechanical and electrical systems, new spray foam insulation, and complete new finishing. The clients lived upstairs while we did the basement, and in the basement while we did the main floor. They left on a vacation while we did the asbestos work. Phase 2 involved a rock retaining wall on the rear of the property that required a lengthy approval process including municipal, fisheries, First Nations, and environmental authorities. The home had a new rear covered deck, garage, new roofline, all new interior and exterior finishing, new mechanical and electrical systems, new insulation and drywall. Phase 2 also involved an extensive asbestos abatement to remove Asbestos-containing materials in the flooring, plaster, insulation, and mastics. Photography by Carsten Arnold Photography.

This immersive water feature experience is like nothing we’ve ever seen or lit before! This large water feature circumstance is at least 40 feet wide with multiple waterfalls and viewing vignettes. Each sitting area provides a different experience. Some areas are purposefully darker and more intimate than others. You can walk from the patio area to the firepit, situated in the back corner. Then from the sitting area and back to the patio all while enjoying this beautiful experience. Never fearing that you'll fall in! During their evening consultation, the homeowners were greatly involved. They even chose specific fixtures. With our design guidance, we included various color tones for high impact and minimal light glare. We used multiple uplights, path lights and submersible lights in a mixture of 2700 K (Kelvin). We also used the Sunset tone in the water feature to create a waterscape that was relaxing. That's the beauty of hiring Northwest Outdoor Lighting. You can choose how involved you want to be. Our designers are flexible! We know we'll select the best products based on function and aesthetics. But having homeowners get involved in the design process means you'll love it that much more! The extensive backyard lawn and trees were also lit with flush in-grade well lights. This makes mowing and lawn care so much easier. Highlighting the tall evergreens creates a safe environment for when the puppies need to go out at night. No scary animals are lurking in dark corners now. Path lights have been added to all the walkways. After having the water feature unlit for years, the water feature has now become the homeowner’s pride and joy!

A shower glass installation typically involves the placement of tempered glass panels in a shower enclosure, replacing traditional shower curtains or other non-glass materials. These glass panels may be frameless or framed, and can feature a variety of finishes and patterns to suit different design preferences. In terms of installation, a shower glass installation typically involves the custom-cutting of the glass panels to fit the specific dimensions of the shower enclosure. The panels are then mounted using specialized hardware or adhesives designed for glass installation, which may require professional installation. The installation process may involve anchoring the glass panels to the wall or floor to ensure they are secure and level. Shower glass installations offer several advantages over traditional shower materials. They are easy to clean and maintain, as they do not require frequent replacement like shower curtains or liners. Additionally, they create a sleek and modern look that can enhance the overall aesthetic of a bathroom or shower space. It's worth noting that shower glass installation requires proper ventilation and drainage to prevent the buildup of moisture and minimize the risk of mold or mildew growth. For this reason, it is important to consult with a professional installer to ensure that the installation is done correctly and that proper ventilation is maintained. Overall, a shower glass installation is a popular choice for those seeking a modern and stylish look for their bathroom or shower space. With a range of design options available, it's possible to find a shower glass solution that perfectly suits your needs and enhances the overall aesthetic of your space.
