Renovation decisions are often framed as: How much should we change? Sometimes the more useful question is: What do we already have that would be difficult to replace?

For these Royal Oak homeowners, one answer was the setting. They had lived in the house for twenty years and loved the ravine views. What no longer worked was the kitchen or main floor.

We widened the work aisles, replaced an island that seated two with one that seats six, improved pantry storage and created room to cook and entertain comfortably at the same time.

The project wasn’t about convincing them to stay. They already knew what they loved about the property.
Our job was to make the house catch up with the life they wanted to live in it.

We’ll admit it: we often recommend removing corner pantries. In this Tuscany Glen kitchen, Trish wanted to keep hers.
So we made it worth keeping.

A custom maple door turned it from something we needed to work around into one of the features of the kitchen.

These clients had lived in their home for twenty years. At the beginning of the project they were drawn to the cool grey interiors filling their Pinterest boards. But as we worked through the design together, something became clear: the colours and materials they genuinely responded to were warmer.

The base cabinets went olive. Natural wood came into the cabinetry and was repeated in the adjoining living room so the spaces belonged together. And the kitchen was reworked within its existing footprint to improve storage and clean up the sightlines.

An inspiration board is useful. It just isn’t the same thing as knowing what feels right once you’re actually standing in your own house. A home should look like the people who live there. Corner pantry and all.

What’s one thing in your home everyone tells you to remove—but you still genuinely love?

During the Design Strategy phase for this Sunset Terrace living room, the area rug was very much a maybe.

Our client loved her hardwood floors, and she wasn’t convinced the room needed a rug on top of them. It was a fair point. The hardwood was one of the things this renovation set out to keep.

The rug made it into the final plan, and we're glad it did. It defines the seating area, softens the acoustics of an open main floor and brings the new sectional and chairs together as one seating group. And there's still plenty of that beautiful hardwood in view.

Swipe back to the before and you’ll see the room as it was, with a heavy wood mantel off to one side and freestanding storage along the next wall.

Some of the best decisions made during the design phase often start as a maybe. Book a Discovery Call through the link in our bio, and bring your maybes with you.

A little throwback to 2020.

That year changed the amount of time many of us spent at home—and made the small things that didn’t work particularly difficult to ignore. Our clients’ Monterra ensuite had one of those problems.

A makeup desk was wedged between two very narrow vanities. There wasn’t a proper bank of drawers anywhere in the room, and bumping elbows had practically become part of the morning routine.

We removed the entire vanity arrangement and replaced it with two proper 36-inch vanities, leaving breathing room between them and adding a generous drawer bank.

A countertop cabinet running to the ceiling added another five feet of storage. We changed the swinging closet door to a barn door, freeing enough wall space inside for custom closet cabinetry. Brighter quartz, larger mirrors and new lighting finished the transformation, but the biggest change was much simpler:

Two people could finally use the room comfortably at the same time. These clients were in the midst of preparing the house for sale when we completed this project.

Not every renovation is about staying forever. Sometimes it’s about fixing the problem properly while you’re still the one living with it.

And, six years later, that’s still a philosophy we stand behind.

The prettiest change on this wall wasn’t the most important one.

The layout in this Sunset Terrace kitchen still worked, so we kept the footprint and much of the existing cabinetry.

One larger island cabinet was replaced to accommodate a microwave drawer and a proper bank of drawers.

Moving the microwave solved something considerably more important: it freed the range wall so the five-burner gas range could finally have the ventilation it required.

A custom walnut hood now conceals a 600 CFM insert. The Calacatta marble backsplash, pot filler and new finishes make the wall beautiful—but the decision underneath all of that is what matters every time the burners are turned on.

Good renovation decisions keep doing their job long after the newness wears off.

Before we draw a cabinet, we ask a lot of questions.

Who cooks? Who helps? Who mostly stands there and talks to the cook?

Where do the groceries land? Which appliances get used every morning? What comes out only when the whole family arrives?

It is a long questionnaire—and this Bragg Creek kitchen is a good example of why.

Ken and Frances were repeat clients who were downsizing, but they weren’t downsizing the family gatherings.

Their answers told us the work aisle needed to be wider so more than one cook could move comfortably. The island needed to be longer and wider, with a prep station on one side and glass-front dish storage on the other.

And rather than lining everyone up in a row, seating wraps around the end of the island so the people who aren’t cooking can actually talk to the ones who are.

This weekend, notice where everyone gathers, where they get in each other’s way and what everyone reaches for. That’s useful renovation research.

Well, this is a Colour of the Year we can get behind.

Benjamin Moore has announced Webster Green HC-130 as its 2027 Colour of the Year, and I’m here for it!👏

It’s a beautiful, deep, dignified green. The sort of colour that’s been gracing English country houses, handsome libraries and traditional kitchens for generations. And that’s precisely what I love about it.

I’ve always had a soft spot for interiors that look as though they’ve evolved over time. Beautiful millwork, old furniture alongside new, a little (or a lot of) patina, and colours that have enough depth to hold their own against natural wood, stone and aged brass.

I’d happily use it on kitchen cabinetry, in a library or study, or even across the walls and trim of a smaller room. It’s a colour that deserves some good architectural detailing.

Now, does that mean everyone should rush out and paint something green? Of course not. The right colour will always depend on the house, the light and the people living in it. And no Colour of the Year announcement is going to change that. But it’s rather nice to see a colour with this much history having its moment.

What do you think? Could you live with Webster Green, or is it a little too much colour for you?

Upstairs in this Cottage Club home, the route to the primary bedroom used to be a catwalk.

It got you from the stairs to the bedroom door. That was about it.

Marvin and Rhonda were turning their cottage into their full-time home as Marvin approached retirement. Storage upstairs was scarce—but there was another missed opportunity: some of the home’s best lake and mountain views were along a space nobody actually stopped to enjoy.

We extended the loft by 48 inches, gaining roughly 36 square feet, and relocated the bedroom door so the new layout would work.

Built-in wardrobes now run along one wall, solving the storage problem.

The remaining space became a small sitting area where they can have their morning coffee by the windows and actually enjoy the view they came here for.

Four feet doesn’t sound like much on a set of drawings. Upstairs, it turned a passageway into a room.

Sometimes the change that makes a house work better isn’t particularly large. It just needs to be in exactly the right place.
Save this if you’re looking at your own floor plan and wondering whether a small amount of space could solve a much bigger problem.

Ricardo didn’t lack ideas.

He had Pinterest boards full of them.

What he needed was a way to turn all those individual things he liked into a room that actually felt like his.

He’d moved into a new home in Airdrie with furniture that was heavy, dark and better suited to the house he’d left behind. This one needed to work for entertaining, family celebrations and ordinary evenings at home.

The dining room began with a carob-stained trestle table that seats six day to day but extends to ten when everyone comes over.

Rather than buying the matching chair set, we used tufted turquoise chairs and re-covered the backs of the host chairs in an embroidered Robert Allen fabric so they read as their own pair. A large painted landscape nods to Ricardo’s love of the ocean.

With Thanksgiving around the corner, it’s a useful reminder:
A dining room has to work for the big dinners—and the ordinary Tuesdays when nobody is coming over.

Good furnishing isn’t about filling a room. It’s about giving the way you live somewhere to happen.

What’s one room in your home that works beautifully for company—but not nearly as well on an ordinary Tuesday?
