INDULGE...AT HOME!

CLEAN LINES, BEAUTIFUL FINISHES, AND A TOUCH OF SPARKLE MAKE THIS KITCHEN
A DREAM FOR ANY CHEF.



This beautiful renovation is certainly one of our favourite projects of the year. Our team created a great space by re-working floor plans, incorporating modern details, and bringing west coast elements inside. The result: a fresh, chic space fit for any host.

A PERFECT KITCHEN FOR ENTERTAINING

 

 

MODERN ELEMENTS AND SUBTLE DETAILS TRANSFORM
THIS DINING AREA

 The glorious two-toned cabinet scheme with granite tops is definitely the belle of the ball.  This perfect entertainment kitchen includes two islands, Viking appliances, wine fridge, and pullouts galore…yes, please.

NEUTRAL COLOUR SCHEME WITH A TOUCH OF COASTAL
TEXTURE AND COLOUR

The en-suite is no ugly stepsister. Its serene, spa ambiance with double vanities,

large, seamless walk-in shower and rain head, free standing tub, and travertine marble gives a hotel feeling any day of the week.

 

FLOATING CABINETS AND GLASS ENCLOSEMENTS CAN MAKE A
POTENTIALLY SMALL SPACE FEEL GRANDE

Thanks again to Andy, Murray, and Whistle for the opportunity to work with you on this project.  It was a true pleasure!

Sneak Peak

I'm really happy with how this turned out, its bold and dramatic while still simple and coastal. We used a slab door with a quartered walnut veneer stained in a deep black walnut which balanced with the Carrara quartz countertop by Zodiac. We used sinks by Duravit to create symmetry which we emphasized with wall mounted faucets by blu. The chromatherapy or "colour therapy" bathtub adds to the spa experience.
