Rear Deck – Seamless Indoor–Outdoor Living Extension | Toronto This rear deck was designed as a natural extension of the interior living space, enhancing how the homeowners use their home day to day. Positioned directly off the main living area, the deck supports effortless indoor–outdoor flow—ideal for entertaining, relaxing, and everyday family use. The layout and proportions were carefully planned to align with interior floor levels and door openings, creating a smooth transition between inside and out. Durable exterior materials were selected to withstand Toronto’s changing seasons while remaining low maintenance and visually cohesive with the home’s updated exterior. As part of the full-home transformation and second floor addition, this deck reflects Cedarstone Group Inc.’s approach to exterior spaces: intentional design, practical detailing, and long-term performance, ensuring outdoor areas feel just as considered as the interior renovation.

Location: Great falls, VA, US AV Architects + Builders Our clients wanted to expand their home without breaking their budget. Our design consists of a three-car garage that allows for a new in-law suite located right above. Not only that, but we re-designed the kitchen to allow an open flow into the living area and the entry mudroom. The large island acts as the centerpiece in the kitchen and highlights the attention to detail we added with the custom cabinets and storage space. Once our final product was finished, our clients got exactly what they had wanted: an open floor plan that flows effortlessly from one room to another and extra room space so they could entertain guests and family.

Take a peek at our 2022 project for Edgehill Music Publishing, located in the heart of Nashville’s 12th South district. This 2,500 sq. ft. commercial facility was meticulously designed to accommodate up to seven writers’ rooms and production suites—each capable of operating simultaneously without interruption, with four of the rooms built for mixing capabilities. With seamless audio integration throughout, the space ensures intuitive connectivity no matter where you are on the property. The aesthetic palette, paired with a loud and quirky speakeasy vibe, creates a fun atmosphere that reflects the owners’ personalities. The result is not just a studio that feels effortless—it’s an inspiring environment where writing, mixing, and production can happen with minimal sound transmission. Behind the walls, the architectural acoustics are second to none. The design emphasizes a true “plug-and-play” workflow: each control room, both isolation booths, and all common areas are acoustically isolated with extraordinary attention to detail. Each suite is equipped with dedicated, silent 1:1 HVAC systems. Eight independent floating-floor systems support the suites, while tailored sound-reducing wall assemblies and intentional treatments in the main suites deliver clarity and precision for mixing. Full-lite doors, combined with the fact that no suite is mechanically bonded, allow all rooms to operate simultaneously with minimal sound transfer. Design, Build & Audio by NILES.

This charming townhouse was completely reimagined from the ground up, transforming an ’80s gem into a modern haven. The most dramatic transformation was the total reconfiguration of the main living spaces. We moved a kitchen wall back six feet, carved out space for a powder room and a hidden walk-in laundry and ensured that every inch was as functional as it was beautiful. The kitchen became a lovely centerpiece—both practical and stylish—while a quaint bar area was added for effortless entertaining. With spa-like bathrooms and a fully modernized primary suite, plus cozy and inviting secondary bedrooms, this home now perfectly balances classic Spanish charm with contemporary living.
