A couple in Victoria Park reached out about two rooms: the living room and a home office. They wanted the spaces they use most to finally feel finished, without having to manage the details themselves.

Our project together began with a 3D walkthrough of the house, and as the design came together, the dining room joined the plan.

The living room

The living room is built around a double-height fireplace wall I designed. The old wood-burning chimney was closed and replaced with a sleek electric fireplace, set in dark slate and framed in warm Italian oak paneling. Custom illuminated shelving shows off their art, and the TV sits in a matte black frame above a speaker wrapped in charcoal fabric, so the technology disappears into the design.

The office

The home office is a focused retreat: dark wood built-ins lit with LED, a work surface that gives the look of stone, soft greige walls, and an ivory rug that ties in the Barcelona chair, with their personal art layered in without breaking the clean lines.

The dining room

In the dining room, a sleek black table meets upholstered chairs that soften the look, under a sculptural pendant.

The last layer pulls it together: stone and marble pieces, books, layered pillows and warm floor lamps.

With large windows pulling in natural light and a palette of warm neutrals, the house now feels serene on a quiet evening and ready when they entertain.

“He brought ideas that fit exactly what we were looking for and kept everything moving without us having to get involved in the details.”
