Detail of tile niche, granite mantle, and new ultra hi-def TV.
Simulated wood-grain tile is from Italy and is 8" high x 48" long. Vertical metal edging hides hides the tile edges. Granite mantle helps to deflect heat from the fireplace away from the TV. Granite is "Absolute Black", 2cm thickness.
Speaker in foreground is a KEF brand passive subwoofer, powered by an amp housed in the recessed gear rack.

Our client bought an older expansive bungalow in Manotick with a stunning waterfront backyard. This beautiful setting became the foundation for our open concept Kitchen and Family Room Design. Besides the usual great functional requirements, the client wanted a ‘Rockstar’ visual kitchen to complement an eclectic collection of Mid-Century Furniture and objects. The reclaimed Northern Wide plank Oak hardwood (colour: Mill creek, collection: Artifax), floor provides a rustic and comfortable grounding to the crisp modernism of the kitchen. The floor is especially practical as the inevitable scratches from the family dog can be easily corrected by the client.
The Kitchen features a ‘Bridge’ design of walnut cabinetry surrounding the pro-style fridge and freezer. Other appliances are clustered with demi-tall pantries and form an interesting linear definition that suits the ‘Long’ Room of Kitchen and Family Room. A walnut Eating Bar and walnut interior for the dish pantry complete the triad of walnut in the Kitchen. High gloss white cabinets featuring handle-free design are topped with gray quartz. The stunning Noble Grey light marble backsplash is installed with a Horizontal grain to complement the linear definition.
The Family Room features an offset linear fireplace that is balanced with a substantial walnut entertainment unit. The awkward and unmoveable doorway was incorporated into the design to create the effect of a unit that is much larger than it actually is. The walnut wood matches the Kitchen but is installed with a horizontal grain, repeating the character of the kitchen backsplash.

Bold Gray Master Bath Remodel — Fremont, CA | 2018 | $25,000
This dramatic master bathroom remodel in Fremont is a masterclass in monochromatic design done right. Working within a sophisticated gray palette from light to near-charcoal, every element was chosen to create a cohesive, high-end result that feels both bold and calming.
The walk-in shower is a showstopper. Floor-to-ceiling large-format gray porcelain tiles with a subtle linear texture clad all three walls, creating a seamless, enveloping effect. A square mosaic-lined recessed niche adds a refined storage detail that blends naturally into the design. The shower floor features a small-format gray mosaic tile that provides texture and slip resistance while staying perfectly on-palette. A wall-mounted square rain showerhead on an extended arm, paired with a handheld unit on a sleek chrome slide bar, delivers a premium shower experience. The concealed thermostatic valve with square trim keeps the fixture wall clean and architectural.
Natural light pours in through a skylight directly above the shower, making the gray tile shimmer and the entire space feel open and airy — a true design asset that elevates the whole room.
One of the most distinctive features of this remodel is the full-height sliding barn door clad in dark charcoal large-format tile — an unexpected and sophisticated detail that separates the shower area while doubling as a dramatic design statement. The industrial-style stainless hardware complements the chrome fixtures throughout.
The vanity area is equally refined. A large floating dark wood-grain cabinet — nearly charcoal in finish — supports a wide white integrated double-sink countertop with two square-profile chrome vessel-style faucets. Flanking vertical strip lights frame a full-width mirror, providing excellent illumination. The main bathroom floor is finished in large-format light gray tile, creating a clean contrast to the darker elements and keeping the overall space feeling bright and open. A heated towel rail adds a luxurious finishing touch.

Remodel-Kitchen & Family Room: Quiet Luxury with a Natural Palette
This remodel reimagines the heart of the home by seamlessly integrating the kitchen and family room into a refined yet inviting open-concept space, grounded in a “quiet luxury” aesthetic and a natural palette.
Kitchen Transformation:
The kitchen layout is completely reworked for improved flow and functionality. Major appliances have been reassigned for efficiency:
• The refrigerator is built in and anchors the focal wall providing improved access to both prep and serving areas.
• The range has been centered on the back wall, framed by two- toned cabinetry and a low-profile custom hood accented with brass that blends seamlessly into the wall for an understated look.
• The dishwasher and sink have been relocated to the new central island, allowing for uninterrupted views across the room and better interaction with guests or family.
At the heart of the space is a large central island, topped with Taj Mahal quartzite in soft beige and taupe tones. The island serves as a multi-functional hub.
The cabinetry is custom-built in white oak, finished in a matte clear coat that highlights the wood’s natural grain. Hardware is kept minimal, in brushed brass for a touch of subdued elegance.
Natural Palette & Materials:
The entire space embraces a natural color scheme—warm whites, layered pastel beiges and natural wood tones—accented with natural stone. Leathered Taj Mahal backsplash with subtle texture adds quiet visual interest without overpowering the calm atmosphere.
Family Room Integration:
The kitchen flows effortlessly into the family room, unified by wide-plank oak flooring and soft lighting. A fluted marble-clad fireplace anchors the space, surrounded by, built-in shelving with the same oak finish inside as the kitchen cabinetry. Furnishings follow the same philosophy: clean lines, neutral fabrics, and a mix of soft textures. Think boucle armchairs, a deep linen sectional, and a reclaimed wood coffee table.
Lighting & Finishing Touches:
Soft, layered lighting—including recessed lights, sculptural clear pendant lights above the island, and concealed LED strips—enhances the serene mood.
