Living Room Looking back toward the Entry, one sees the new bookshelves and the stair leading to the bedrooms at the second level--but just a half level above the mid-level shared living spaces. The former Living Room had a flat ceiling, and the new vault with the cove lighting lets the room breathe. Note that the TV is retracted here. Bookshelves are turned inward in the room, and out of view of the Entry hall. stained oak trim; original oak floors • Waynesboro Taupe by Benjamin paint on walls & ceiling • Seattle Mist by Benjamin Moore paint in music nook • sun tunnel • custom designed & built buffet Construction by CG&S Design-Build.

The client wanted patio space for a chair so she could relax in the sun when the mood struck. The only spot in the yard with any sun is near the fence gate. A full-range New York Bluestone patio was added using 30” x 30” slabs. These slabs are dry-set so leveling was a challenge.

Outdoor seating area and retaining wall with prefabricated fire feature and native California plants. This design also includes a custom outdoor kitchen with a freestanding pergola.

Accoya was selected as the ideal material for this breathtaking home in West Vancouver. Accoya was used for the railing, siding, fencing and soffits throughout the property. In addition, an Accoya handrail was specifically custom designed by Upper Canada Forest Products. Design Duo Matt McLeod and Lisa Bovell of McLeod Bovell Modern houses switched between fluidity, plasticity, malleability and even volumetric design to try capture their process of space-making. Unlike anything surrounding it, this home’s irregular shape and atypical residential building materials are more akin to modern-day South American projects that stem from their surroundings to showcase concrete’s versatility. This is why the Accoya was left in its rough state, to accentuate the minimalist and harmonious aesthetics of its natural environment. Photo Credit: Martin Tessler

Entry Hall Upon entering the home, one's eye is led past the stairway and straight to the Kitchen and its sliding French doors that lead to the back yard. The original home had a weak connection--at best--to the back yard. One also gets the first hint of the color themes in the house--orange-tinged wood trim is complemented by blue surfaces. A solar tube skylight brightens the space. oak trim • oak floors (original and new) • original banister • Waynesboro Taupe paint by Benjamin Moore • Construction by CG&S Design-Build.
