Remember when we walked this one in lifesize a few weeks ago at with Bravada Homes Ltd. and KAYLEY JANE DESIGN ?

After making a few final adjustments, we sent our clients home with their interactive virtual walkthrough and wanted to share a few views from the tour with you!

Think of it a bit like a video game where you can move through the rooms and explore the home at your own pace. It’s just one more way we help our clients visualize the space so they can feel fully confident in the home we’re creating together.

Our Mid Century Modern Makeover from a few years ago gave this established Abbotsford home a fresh look while really leaning into its mid century vibes. The renovation earned two awards at the CHBA Fraser Valley Housing Awards of Excellence: Whole House Over $1M and Kitchen Over $150K. Still a favourite of ours!

Opening up the main floor created a more natural connection between the kitchen and dining spaces, giving the family more room to gather, host and enjoy time together. It's a layout that works so much better for the way our clients wanted to use their home in their next stage of life.

We actually moved the kitchen from the back of the home to the front, creating more room to work and gather while bringing in more natural light. A major change to the layout that completely transformed how the main floor feels and functions.

Connecting the kitchen area to the backyard was a huge priority for this family. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring in natural light and keep the patio and pool in view, making it easy to enjoy time together both inside and out.

The backyard was already a pretty special place, with a pool and pickleball court ready for action. We carried that same energy into the covered patio, creating a covered space for BBQs, family gatherings and long summer evenings outside. Safe to say, this family has plenty of reasons to enjoy being home!

A little midway check-in on our Telegraph Residence! This is one of our favourite milestones in the design process because we get to see our clients’ faces absolutely light up! All the decisions we’ve helped make along the way have brought us to this point and suddenly it starts to feel so real. There are still plenty of details to come, but we’re loving how this one is taking shape.

A new build with an old soul. Designing a new home within an established neighbourhood is always a careful balancing act. With our Burnaby Heritage House, we’ve maximized lot coverage while paying close attention to the proportions, rooflines, and Craftsman details that will give it the character needed to feel right at home in its surroundings. What do you think?

A new chapter for this early 20th-century Abbotsford home! This substantial addition is making room for multigenerational living, blending Scandinavian and European influences with the home's existing heritage character.

Stay tuned as we move this concept sketch into 3D modelling and beyond!

It’s been three months since we made the move to our new studio space! We’re grateful for how quickly this space has filled with client meetings, design conversations, drawings, and plenty of new ideas. It’s been a good first few months here.

If you haven’t had a chance to stop by yet, let us know! We’d love to welcome you in for a visit and a coffee ☕

A first look at our Rural Scandinavian Residence through this preliminary concept sketch, created for a new custom home on an ALR property in Abbotsford.

Simple rooflines and restrained detailing give the home its Scandinavian influence, while the overall form feels well suited to the rural property around it.

The homeowners came to us looking for a team with experience designing within the Agricultural Land Reserve. ALR properties come with their own set of requirements, so part of our role has been working through those early while designing a home around how this family wants to live.

We’ve now wrapped up the preliminary design stage and are moving into the 3D model, where we’ll continue refining the exterior design and details.

Every home has a story and this one is getting a sequel!! We’re designing a brand new modern home with flat rooflines on a rural ALR property in Pitt Meadows. The fun plot twist is that we're reusing the existing foundation footprint of the original house built decades ago by the same homeowner. What a unique opportunity to honour the history of the property while creating something completely new for its next chapter.
