Mixing traditional and contemporary elements is a hot design trend that is here to stay. This formal dining room had very traditional bones. The addition of brightly painted furniture, wallcovering, art, contemporary floral arrangements & bold accessories transformed this room. The once classically traditional space is now fresh and transitional! Photo Credit: Daniel Angulo www.danielangulo.com

Unusual textures merge in the master bedroom to create an urban oasis. Highly polished goatskin‐clad nightstands flank a contemporary‐styled bed. The large, wood‐framed piece was French polished to achieve a more metropolitan countenance in keeping with its new high‐rise home. Bronze wall mounted swing arm lamps allow room for personal effects on top of the chests. The contemporary occasional chair is a combination of ultra suede and mahogany. Renae Lillie

The homeowners of this condo sought our assistance when downsizing from a large family home on Howe Sound to a small urban condo in Lower Lonsdale, North Vancouver. They asked us to incorporate many of their precious antiques and art pieces into the new design. Our challenges here were twofold; first, how to deal with the unconventional curved floor plan with vast South facing windows that provide a 180 degree view of downtown Vancouver, and second, how to successfully merge an eclectic collection of antique pieces into a modern setting. We began by updating most of their artwork with new matting and framing. We created a gallery effect by grouping like artwork together and displaying larger pieces on the sections of wall between the windows, lighting them with black wall sconces for a graphic effect. We re-upholstered their antique seating with more contemporary fabrics choices - a gray flannel on their Victorian fainting couch and a fun orange chenille animal print on their Louis style chairs. We selected black as an accent colour for many of the accessories as well as the dining room wall to give the space a sophisticated modern edge. The new pieces that we added, including the sofa, coffee table and dining light fixture are mid century inspired, bridging the gap between old and new. White walls and understated wallpaper provide the perfect backdrop for the colourful mix of antique pieces. Interior Design by Lori Steeves, Simply Home Decorating.

At first glance, the pool room had dated paneled walls and boarded up windows; the pool itself had rings and streaks and the concrete decking around it was cracked and uneven. On the upside there was an impressive wall of windows that filled the room with lots of natural light. My thought was if we lighten the walls, and darken the pool and ceiling, the contrast would give the space a rich luxurious feel. The ceiling was paneled like the walls too, but lacked its own personality. For it's make over, it required a second floor to be built eighteen feet high to do the work safely. Once it was built we added big chunky, rustic beams with iron strapping and wrapped the room with a beautiful border of scripture. One of the walls was hand painted with a mural of Jesus overlooking Israel. This amazing artwork brought in color and gives the effect of windows. The staircase was basic wood; we redesigned it with distressed wood and iron railing. There was enough space for a built in beverage bar and a space for rolled towels. The different elements working together provided the harmony in texture and color that makes it feel warm and inviting.....

This tiny home is located on a treelined street in the Kitsilano neighborhood of Vancouver. We helped our client create a living and dining space with a beach vibe in this small front room that comfortably accommodates their growing family of four. The starting point for the decor was the client's treasured antique chaise (positioned under the large window) and the scheme grew from there. We employed a few important space saving techniques in this room... One is building seating into a corner that doubles as storage, the other is tucking a footstool, which can double as an extra seat, under the custom wood coffee table. The TV is carefully concealed in the custom millwork above the fireplace. Finally, we personalized this space by designing a family gallery wall that combines family photos and shadow boxes of treasured keepsakes.
