Is it Christmas? It feels like Christmas!! 🙌🏻

Look what arrived at my favourite lighting store ! Check out my kitchen island lighting! These are the Rise & Shine pendants. They are large scale with a rust patina. Very organic, perfect for our vaulted ceiling.

I cannot wait to show you ALL the incredible lighting I have selected for my new home!

This Toronto project has been a complex and rewarding one, seamlessly integrating a heritage home with a substantial new build.

The goal from the beginning was to preserve the original character while layering in the functionality and features of a new home. The result will be a timeless transformative new home!!



How long do think a new build project like this takes, start to finish?

It has been a very busy 4 months at our new home but oh there’s been SO MUCH PROGRESS! 🏠

With the help of our incredible contractor Jeff at Craft & Trade, our home has been taken right back to the studs w only three exterior walls remaining.

Full demo included removing all the interior, roof, and siding. A new truss package gave us a gorgeous vaulted ceiling, plus a simple top plate detail added a few extra inches without changing the bungalow profile. Next up was new asphalt and metal roofing.

From there, we rebuilt the core systems. Plumbing with new drain lines and a tankless system with hot water recirculation.

HVAC with a new high-efficiency furnace, AC, HRV, new ductwork, plus gas lines for BBQ, fire pit, and pool heater.

Electrical including a full 200 amp upgrade, heated floors, and EV pre-wire.

Insulation with spray foam, batt, vapour barrier, and exterior rigid foam, a major upgrade from the original 1960’s build.

We’re now finishing drywall, adding custom arches and clean window drywall returns. We have all new windows by Lake City and masonry repairs are complete.

This is the part of the renovation that matters most, everything behind the scenes.

All trades led by our amazing GC Jeff.

Stay tuned for all the fun pretty stuff to start!
