La terrasse, en partie couverte, a été aménagée en 2 espace distincts : un espace pour prendre les repas, un espace pour se détendre et profiter de la jolie vue sur l'Ariège (la rivière). Mobilier Fermob. Au sol, nous avons repris un carrelage extérieur effet bois pour la cohérence visuelle avec le reste du projet.

We were hired to add space to their cottage while still maintaining the current architectural style. We enlarged the home's living area, created a larger mudroom off the garage entry, enlarged the screen porch and created a covered porch off the dining room and the existing deck was also enlarged. On the second level, we added an additional bunk room, bathroom, and new access to the bonus room above the garage. The exterior was also embellished with timber beams and brackets as well as a stunning new balcony off the master bedroom. Trim details and new staining completed the look. - Jacqueline Southby Photography

A small and elegant condominium rises out of a 90’s era building. Turning a dated studio apartment into a luxury short-term rental property alleviates the stress that tourists experience when booking accommodations in Vancouver. Rivaling any 5-star downtown hotel this gem, across from the Seabreeze Walkway, was renovated to attract tourists from all over the world. The floor plan was kept intact and given a much-needed facelift. The dated flooring was removed and durable vinyl-plank flooring was put in its place. The custom cabinetry in the kitchen has a fresh feel with ivory flush doors juxtaposed with walnut cubbies and accents. Quartz, Stratuarietto counters with an elegant waterfall peninsula partition the kitchen from the living room. The peninsula island was deepened to accommodate seating. “It’s important to use the same materials throughout a small space, notes the designer, as you don’t want to overstimulate the senses”. The same walnut millwork and quartz are seen again in the bathroom. The tub was removed to make way for a walk-in shower, tiled in a floral and herringbone pattern. Plumbing fixtures and accessories are in brass or flat black finishes giving this space the perfect balance of femininity and masculinity. Complete with a washer and dryer and storage room, a small space designed right, can feel grandiose.

Voyons ensemble l’extérieur maintenant. Je me suis aussi amusée sur ce projet à meubler et à décorer le balcon de 20,71 m2 composé de deux espaces bien distincts. Avec cette observation j’ai pris parti de disposer deux espaces bien différents. Le premier a été aménagé en pensant à un salon de détente cocooning. Le second, a été pensé comme une salle à manger. Pour le salon le mot cocooning prend tout son sens avec cette accumulation d’assises diverses et variées qui permettent de recevoir de nombreuses personnes à passer un moment agréable à l’extérieur avec vue sur les montagnes. Un tapis Pappelina jaune pâle a été déposé ainsi que deux tables basses gigognes métalliques qui reprennent elles aussi l'esprit des pieds compas.

We transformed a large rooftop space into vignettes, all with entertaining in mind. There is an outdoor kitchen complete with Big Green Egg grill and workstation. A grill masters dream. Included in the kitchen is an outdoor beverage center to store those meats before cooking and to house libations. The dining area is complete with an umbrella for those sunny days and a fire pit in the center of the table for those cool nights. When the elements kick in, whether it be the blazing sun or the arctic cool rooftop winds, you can pull the curtains to create a cocoon of shade or warmth underneath the covered area. Then of course there is the wide open entertaining space complete with plenty of seating to soak up the sun.
