This commercial renovation at 3020 Lincoln Avenue in Coquitlam involved a targeted tenant improvement for a professional notary office. The scope focused on modernizing the interior environment to create a calm, welcoming, and functional client reception area while maintaining durability and code compliance standards required for commercial spaces.
New commercial-grade flooring was installed throughout, paired with updated lighting to enhance brightness and improve overall spatial clarity. The layout was optimized to support client flow and privacy, while finishes were selected to reflect a clean, professional aesthetic appropriate for a legal services environment.

Love this beautiful kitchen featuring our Cité hardwood floor from our Urban loft series. Wire brushed floors are perfect to give an interesting depth to the floor.

This living room started out with dusty rose carpeting and walls and a mish mash of cheap furniture. It needed a complete overhaul. The first step was to identify the room's purpose. While technically it is a living room, it is connected via open space to the dining room, kitchen, and family room...thus, it was really more of an extension of the most used, common areas of the home. It was also the first room that visitors see when entering the home, and thus, it needed to be beautiful. While the space is more refined than the other common areas of the home, it is still relaxed enough to be used everyday, and it is. It's TV is used regularly to watch the big sporting events of the week and its also a cozy place with comfortable, oversize chairs and sofas to curl up and read a book or play a card game by the gas fireplace. Wall to wall custom built-in cabinetry and mantle were designed and installed that create a beautiful focal point for the room. Tracey Ayton Photography

For this home, we wanted to create a complete design direction that felt elevated, warm, and cohesive across many connected spaces. The palette combines light wood, creamy finishes, soft green accents, stone, brass, black details, and layered natural textures. Renderings and drawings helped us work through the kitchen, bathrooms, entry areas, furnishings, and the smaller functional details that make the home feel considered. The finished direction feels polished and calm while still carrying enough warmth and texture to feel personal.
