Located in the highly sought-after community of Varsity, Calgary, this interior design project focuses on creating a functional and aesthetically pleasing home for clients looking to age in place. Emphasizing barrier-free design principles, the space was tailored to ensure accessibility without sacrificing style.
The design palette features clean whites and soft wood tones, accented by pale greys and punctuated with gold, black, and white hardware and lighting fixtures. Drawing inspiration from modern Scandinavian design, the home beautifully showcases the client’s curated collection of furniture and artwork, blending form and function to create a timeless and welcoming environment.
This renovation project, located in the desirable Varsity community, involved transforming the entire upper level to enhance both functionality and style. The principal bedroom and ensuite were expanded to create a luxurious retreat. The ensuite features a spacious walk-in shower, a large vanity with his & hers sinks, a dedicated makeup area, and a freestanding tub, all complemented by a private toilet area. The kids’ bathroom was updated with a modern walk-in shower and a new vanity offering ample storage, perfect for growing families. The entire upper floor was refreshed with new paint, refinished hardwood floors, and contemporary light fixtures, bringing a fresh, bright atmosphere to the space. Additionally, a contemporary coffee bar was added to the bonus room, seamlessly blending with the existing mid-century aesthetic. The clients were thrilled with the transformation, appreciating how the space felt light, bright, and exceptionally functional.
Located in the prestigious community of Wentworth, Calgary, this main level renovation with a kitchen redesign focused on maximizing every inch of space while preserving the existing layout. The custom kitchen was crafted to be both functional and luxurious, featuring bespoke cabinetry that offers ample storage, including dedicated spaces for small appliances and a hidden coffee bar. High-end appliances were integrated seamlessly into the design, and the cabinetry was accented with a custom stainless steel hood and natural stone countertops, adding both elegance and practicality. The main floor was further refreshed with new paint, refinished hardwood floors, new furniture, and thoughtfully curated light fixtures, creating a bright, inviting atmosphere. The result is a sophisticated and welcoming space, perfect for raising a family and entertaining guests, with an emphasis on both style and function.
Two years ago, we undertook a complete home renovation that included a stunning transformation of the main-level kitchen, as well as updates to both upstairs bathrooms. We also added a third bedroom and a second office to the existing upper floor bonus room, while installing new flooring and refreshing the paint throughout the house.
We had the pleasure of undertaking a condo renovation in the beautiful Riverstone condominiums, located in the heart of Mission. The main focus of our redesign was to create a chef’s kitchen that would elevate the living space. We also updated the bathrooms and added a laundry room for convenience. To maximize functionality and style, we added custom-built-ins throughout the condo, a new fireplace, a wine feature wall detail, and a stunning custom dining room nook. To further enhance the overall look and feel of the condo, we refreshed it with new paint, lights, and hardware.
To transform this kitchen into a more open and inviting space, we took down two walls that previously separated it from the living room and dining room. Although we had to incorporate a structural post at the corner of the island, we seamlessly integrated it into the design. The client’s preference for a traditional feel was reflected in the darker cabinet colors and a stunning custom hood featuring a walnut accent. To add an additional touch of traditional elegance with a contemporary twist, we designed a custom ceiling detail above the island with copper panels. By opening up the kitchen walls, we were able to create a more spacious area, complete with a generous island and cabinets that extend into the dining room, housing a stylish coffee bar. And, to further enhance the island’s functionality, we added a walnut butcher block counter, beautifully integrated into the granite counter.
“We underwent a significant home renovation that included a range of updates to enhance both the functionality and aesthetics of our living space. We replaced the flooring and painted the entire home, adding a bedroom and small bathroom as well as a playroom. To further elevate the space, we changed the fireplace and refreshed the kitchen cabinets with new colors, lights, and hardware. We also incorporated new railings, windows, and skylights in the living and dining areas, and reworked the principal bedroom in the upper loft to include a more spacious ensuite and a walk-through closet.
One of our returning clients from Priddis had requested some additional renovation work last spring to re-design her ensuite, bedroom and main floor bathroom. We were also hired to help stage her living room we used white rift oak with a warm stain on her bathroom vanity, brightened up the walls, tile and added a lot more storage. In the balthroom, we also added full slab tiles in the shower along with all new plumbing fixtures for the main level bathroom, added all new cabinets, and ship-lap.
For our client in Tuxedo Park, we fully updated their kitchen along with some new floors and paint.
Our beautiful kitchen renovation also included part of the main level as well. With our client we included some custom details in the kitchen with some hidden accessories.
Our goal for this beautiful Marda loop home was to bring the kitchen back to life. The existing kitchen was dark and lacking storage for our clients.
Storage was maximized by adding custom tailored built-in organization accessories designed to increase efficiency and kitchen utility.
For the perimeter cabinets, we opted for a really classic grey color accented with a grey stained walnut island to create the final look.
Our goal here was to transform an unfinished basement into a usable space with a new bar, bathroom, games area and living room. The client’s love of the mountains enabled us to create a breath taking feature wall. We used colours from the mural to give the room a sense of harmony.
After a successful bathroom overhaul two years ago, Elle Cherie was brought back to remodel the kitchen. The clients were thrilled with the contemporary yet long-lasting look we created. We are also excited about our future renovation plans.
Our goal here was to transform an older existing home and to convert it into a more contemporary look and feel. These clients wanted the home to feel very light, bright and airy so that they could add personality to each space with their furniture and photography.
Brought in mid-way through a main floor renovation, our team was to remodel up the kitchen and living room with a bright atmosphere. Working closely with the clients, we created a beautiful space where floor to ceiling windows open the room to the golf course view. Personality shines through with a beautiful blue island and mesmerizing tile backsplash.
This project was all about creating a luxurious ensuite bathroom to feel pampered in. The unusual layout was a challenge but we succeeded in creating a clean, modern aesthetic accented with natural stone elements to give the bathroom an upscale spa atmosphere.
We were challenged to realize two distinct “his and hers” goals in this unfinished basement. We created a beautiful guest bedroom that doubles as a dressing room for her and we added an enviable bar with backlit onyx and a custom wine display for him. The new media area is perfect for entertaining or relaxing and watching movies with the kids.
The walk-in closet and the bathroom met the homeowner’s goal of adding more storage space, but did so in a sleek, fashionable way that accentuated their love of travel and colour. The materials we used are durable and easy to maintain, so the spaces will continue to look amazing after plenty of everyday use. Most importantly, the master bath and walk-in closet are beautiful spaces designed to be used and loved.
Our Tuscany clients came to us looking to revamp their existing master ensuite that was not functioning the way they needed it to.
We offered a few new design layouts to choose from that included his and hers vanities, more storage, and a large walk-in shower with a bench.
This project was very collaborative during the design process which helped us create a brand-new layout that was beautiful and functional.
