KitchenLab Interiors’ first, entirely new construction project in collaboration with GTH architects who designed the residence. KLI was responsible for all interior finishes, fixtures, furnishings, and design including the stairs, casework, interior doors, moldings and millwork. KLI also worked with the client on selecting the roof, exterior stucco and paint colors, stone, windows, and doors. The homeowners had purchased the existing home on a lakefront lot of the Valley Lo community in Glenview, thinking that it would be a gut renovation, but when they discovered a host of issues including mold, they decided to tear it down and start from scratch. The minute you look out the living room windows, you feel as though you're on a lakeside vacation in Wisconsin or Michigan. We wanted to help the homeowners achieve this feeling throughout the house - merging the causal vibe of a vacation home with the elegance desired for a primary residence. This project is unique and personal in many ways - Rebekah and the homeowner, Lorie, had grown up together in a small suburb of Columbus, Ohio. Lorie had been Rebekah's babysitter and was like an older sister growing up. They were both heavily influenced by the style of the late 70's and early 80's boho/hippy meets disco and 80's glam, and both credit their moms for an early interest in anything related to art, design, and style. One of the biggest challenges of doing a new construction project is that it takes so much longer to plan and execute and by the time tile and lighting is installed, you might be bored by the selections of feel like you've seen them everywhere already. “I really tried to pull myself, our team and the client away from the echo-chamber of Pinterest and Instagram. We fell in love with counter stools 3 years ago that I couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger on, thank god, because then they started showing up literally everywhere", Rebekah recalls. Lots of one of a kind vintage rugs and furnishings make the home feel less brand-spanking new. The best projects come from a team slightly outside their comfort zone. One of the funniest things Lorie says to Rebekah, "I gave you everything you wanted", which is pretty hilarious coming from a client to a designer.

Truly an urban sanctuary, this combined pool and spa make the most of a small ravine lot in downtown Toronto. With its understated black Armourcoat and slate tile finish and dramatic zero-edge wall, the pool appears to merge with the green space below. State-of-the-art swim jets transform the pool into an exercise area as needed, while pool equipment is discretely stored in a below-deck room. (7 x 14, rectangular)

Here is a close up of the Anchor pavers and the patterns we merged. The curve of the walkway creates movement while the random pattern of the seating patio relaxes the mood.

Merging nature with the brightness of a naturally sunlit bathroom created an airy atmosphere that was perfectly suitable for this Spring inspired mosaic. Carefully chosen color hues and unmatched craftsmanship brings this scene from nature to life.

This remodel includes a reverse osmosis system for fresh drinking water, a convenient air switch garbage disposal, and a toe-kick heater to keep the kitchen cozy—merging luxury with everyday convenience.

Using the same style cabinets as the bathroom, we designed a chic open concept kitchen that is modern and elegant. With lots of storage and counter space, our client is easily able to keep their space looking clean and organized. We also installed a built in open-shelf, allowing for any home decor or cookbooks our client wants to display! Right behind the kitchen island and breakfast bar, we designed a charming little dining area. Comprising of a unique round glass-top table and tailored leather dining chairs (which match the kitchen island bar stools!). The entire kitchen and dining area merge together beautifully with style, function, and unified design.
