? South Surrey Full Home Transformation ? This project was a complete 3,500 sq. ft. full-gut renovation that transformed an outdated home into a stunning, modern living space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by a custom-built staircase that sets the tone for the craftsmanship and attention to detail carried throughout the entire home. The heart of the renovation is the breathtaking custom kitchen, featuring floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, a massive waterfall island, integrated lighting, premium finishes, and carefully selected materials that blend warmth with modern elegance. The home includes 4 fully renovated bedrooms, each designed to maximize comfort, functionality, and style. Every bathroom was reimagined with custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, designer fixtures, and timeless finishes. Downstairs, the basement was completely transformed into an entertainer's dream with a custom-built bar, creating the perfect space for hosting family and friends. From the flooring and millwork to the lighting and architectural details, every square foot of this home was rebuilt from the ground up. This wasn't a cosmetic update—it was a true studs-to-finish renovation, where every detail was thoughtfully designed and expertly executed. Project Highlights: ✔️ 3,500 sq. ft. Full Gut Renovation ✔️ Custom Kitchen with Waterfall Island ✔️ 4 Bedrooms Completely Renovated ✔️ Custom Basement Bar ✔️ Custom Staircase ✔️ New Flooring Throughout ✔️ Custom Millwork & Cabinetry ✔️ Designer Bathrooms ✔️ Modern Lighting Package ✔️ Complete Interior Transformation A project of this scale takes vision, planning, and craftsmanship—and we're proud to have brought this South Surrey home back to life.

This brand new modern build required an ultra modern landscape. The backyard features architectural concrete steppingstones, walkways, patios and pool coping. The pavilion has dining and lounging areas with an outdoor TV and fireplace. A natural stone bench terminates the far end of the pool and is surrounded with Beech hedging, Japanese Maples and forest like plantings. The front has an exposed aggregate driveway and limestone steppingstones and walkways to get you to the front door. Another custom cantilevered stone bench gives us a sense of entry. A massive Red Maple was carefully preserved through the build. Gardens feature Japanese Maples, Oakleaf Hydrangeas, Ferns and Japanese Forest Grasses.

Wild View Farm includes a new “Forever home” (we deconstructed an existing house with a 90% landfill diversion rate), and enhancements to several working barns. The 80 acre site was an original homestead farm from the 1890’s. Both its buildings and soil had become severely degraded. The owners are working to holistically restore this property and make it a model of modern regenerative farming. They are planting hundreds of trees, re-introducing livestock and working with Dryland Agroecology Research and High Plains Permaculture to restore the soil. The -51 HERS rated home is not just energy-efficient - it’s a model of “Regenerative design”. The deep green house design included multiple challenges – foremost was how to create a Passive Solar design that also took full advantage of the massive views to the West. We solved it with an L shaped building that optimized passive and active solar strategies on the south face, then actively protected the western facade with a giant covered porch and tuned glazing. The home’s leading-edge energy package includes a Ground source heat pump, a large roof-mounted solar PV array, battery back-up, EV chargers, and Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV), Energy Star Appliances and windows, a robust foam insulation shell and LED lighting. We also endeavored to craft a modern day interpretation of the farmhouse typology, with a low-slung simple gable-roofed form that would feel like it’s always been there. The exterior material palette of limestone, cementitious stucco and heavy timber gives it a rich Colorado Modern Farmhouse feel. The home is full of custom details like walls of vaulted glass to capture the sweeping mountain views, an AI Smart Home control system, a sleeping loft for kids and guests, a hard-working Butler’s Pantry, a gourmet outdoor kitchen, a pool & spa, a cozy office nook for reading, and a lovely built-in bench for morning coffee. Phase 2 of this project will include a Farmworker ADU and a full renovation of the existing historic barn. Built by Skycastle Construction. Interior Design by Kimball Modern and Rodwin Architecture.

Photography by Natalie Marotta This special project is an extensive renovation of Better Homes And Gardens’ “The House You Asked For” of 1953. While the California Case Study-inspired architecture was an interesting break from 1950’s boxes, its extensive single-pane glass, internal roof drains, and slab construction were leading to structural deterioration through condensation and leaks, and a massive carbon footprint. The renovation took the form of slight plan adjustments–giving the kitchen more space, combining two entry doors into one entry space, adjusting the bedroom-bathroom area–and reworking the roof. We added a raised portion to carry ducts for conditioning and ventilation, which was also an opportunity to create spatial interest and bring in light from above, and we re-sloped the roof to drain to the perimeter instead of the middle of the house. Carbon-sequestering wood fiberboard insulation was added to the walls, and the windows were replaced with triple-glazed units. With new heat pump heating, cooling, and water heating, the operational carbon footprint was reduced by 93%.

This Early 1900's Tudor underwent a massive transformation inside and out! A full renovation complete with a period matching addition was married together seamlessly with the original character of this beautiful home.

Desiring an oversized traditional yet timeless chef's kitchen, this homeowner turned to Shore & Country Kitchens who took major steps to significantly enlarge it. The renovation required the design team to find a creative way to “bump out” the existing space and create five additional feet to accommodate a massive island. The island, mantle of the hood, interior of glass hutch cabinet, and floating shelves were finished in Antique Leather on Maple and accented with brushed gold hardware for a warm burnished look. And behind each and every Burlington Recessed Inset cabinet door finished in Alpine White, hides a variety of uniquely Wood-Mode storage ideas. From roll-out storage drawers and a magic corner that provide deeper storage with easier access to items, to Tray Partitions and Peg Drawer to neatly store cooking pans and dishware. To finish off the design, the kitchen features interior cabinet lighting throughout, integrated lighting in floating shelves, and under cabinet integrated lighting, along with glass front upper cabinets, offering a place to show off prized dishware.

Our clients for this grand mountain lodge wanted the warmth and solidness of timber to contrast many of the contemporary steel, glass and stone architecture more prevalent in the area recently. A desire for timberwork with ‘GRRRR’ equipped to handle the massive snowloads in this location, ensured that the timbers were fit to scale this awe-inspiring 8700sq ft residence. Working with Peter Rose Architecture + Interiors Inc., we came up with unique designs for the timberwork to be highlighted throughout the entire home. The Kettle River crew worked for 2.5 years designing and erecting the timber frame as well as the 2 feature staircases and complex heavy timber mouldings and mantle in the great room. We also coordinated and installed the direct set glazing on the timberwork and the unique Unison lift and slide doors that integrate seamlessly with the timberwork. Huge credit should also be given to the very talented builder on this project - MacDougall Construction & Renovations, it was a pleasure to partner with your team on this project.
