About the Project

Downsizing to perfect proportions!

New beginnings are sometimes not always planned, as was the case for this client, however as the saying goes (or at least partially) when a door opens you might as well walk right in! In an unexpected change of course this client opted to build a new home in a new subdivision in the city.

With a dizzying array of decisions to be made, I was selected to help navigate this new construction, create a plan and come up with a design vision to make the new home comfortable and comforting, and a reflection of her personality; petite, graceful and welcoming.

Starting with a blank slate can sometimes be more challenging than doing a renovation with at least some parameters, but it’s also really exciting creating something from nothing!! Our client was gracious to give us carte blanche with the caveat that we find a way to include a few traditional and cherished heirloom pieces into the spaces. And that’s exactly what we did.
