Over the past couple years I've become accustomed to working with the magic makers at Our Homes Magazine and it is always an exciting process. 🀩

This project was my second official feature and second time working with their lovely editor and photographer. Having the opportunity to return to the clients home for a professional shoot and proper marketing blitz always feels like the icing on the cake 🍰 to a beautiful design and having a printed issue documenting the project serves as a nice little memento in return.

For this entryway, we wanted a clean, uncluttered view straight through to the back wall of the house (just wait! πŸ‘€). To achieve this without compromising on practicality, we built the utilitarian features into their own separate space! πŸ“πŸͺ›πŸ”¨

On one side sits a coat closet and on the other, a moody and elegant powder room. Each are joined by a deep alcove, lit by vintage-inspired sconces and a high transom. We had the floating table custom designed and built to span the length of the wall, leaving room underneath for a pair of matching ottomans. We upholstered these in a timeless fabric from to coordinate with the metallic grass-cloth used on the accent wall.✨

πŸ’‘Lights, Camera, Action!πŸ’‘ This sweet niche will have you ready to go in no time with it's practical placement between powder room and coat closet. Attending events, hosting company and rushing to work in the morning suddenly become stressless as you flit elegantly between everything you need, just a few feet from your front door. πŸ’…πŸ»

It took a long time to find the perfect entryway cabinet but I love the end result. 🀩

It's more complicated than just picking a cabinet! What size/scale is it? It might technically fit the space - but does it suit the space? Does it suit your needs, your budget? Beyond the practical items, there are artwork, decor, lighting, mirror and surface material selections to account for as well!

So, though there are formulas we follow to ensure your place is well-designed, there is no one size fits all solution and a professional will know how to cater to your exact space, style and (very importantly) lifestyle. πŸ‘Œ

Two of my favourite features in this entryway are the beautiful pendants we had installed and the custom designed staircase.

The lighting in this space was especially important πŸ’‘ We always design the lighting layout FIRST, during the planning and rough-in stage, which means we have to know what we're doing and where it's going months before the final pieces are selected! We chose these "Bruni" pendants for their scale and simplicity. Their airy aesthetic and translucency coordinated perfectly with both the sconces and living room chandelier that share the space. ✨ Hanging them in multiples adds just the right amount of impact and helps lead your eye towards the breathtaking backdrop that surrounds the seating area. 🌲🌳

The staircase was designed, built and installed by London Stair and Railing. To ensure the perfect finish, I had Barnes Finishing come and match the LVP floors and select the perfect stain for this solid maple work of art. Metal balusters were chosen to tie into the entryway door and other black accents throughout the home while allowing full view of a stunning stone-clad accent wall that envelopes the stairway, leading to a basement rec room.

The BEST part about this entryway? The VIEW! Keep an eye on my feed to see the most enchanting home I've had the pleasure of working on! πŸ‘€

πŸŽ‰Happy December 5th! πŸŽ‰ That's right, just yesterday, Our Homes released it's latest issue featuring our beautiful "Enchanted Forest" project in all of it's glory. 😍🌲✨ This project was named such because the home we built sits on a stunning property oozing with natural wonder. Ponds, foot bridges and a forest of trees are showcased through floor to ceiling windows in the living area and surrounding the sunroom in the west wing. Aside from the architecture, the palette is also informed by nature, focusing on natural stones, mixed metals and warm woods. We can't wait for you to see it!!!

Wow - We made it! After a brief delay and without a square inch to spare, we made it to our clients home in good time to set up for our Our Homes Magazine photo shoot. It was such a rewarding experience returning to this project. ❀ When you build a home from the drawing stage through to completion, it's hard to appreciate everything you've accomplished. But when you return to the space and see all the little touches ✨ your clients have added to make the home feel personal and lived in, you really view it with fresh eyes.

It feels like you've given someone an amazing gift -
and they love it,
and use it all the time.

At Debra Rigby Design, sometimes I find myself going above and beyond the call of duty πŸ˜… I've caught myself caring for pets, changing furnace filters, skimming pools and watering (or cleaning) plants! 🌿 This is all in a days work when you're acting as both an Interior designer and a Project Manager.

For clients to trust me so much they allow me to:
1) design their home from the ground up and
2) feed their fish while they're on vacation,

is a true testament to the design experience I aim to provide. πŸ˜Šβœ…

We have something very special to show you! 🎁 A recent new build to be featured in the upcoming December issue of Our Homes Magazine. This was a massive project and an enormous undertaking but, as always, was more than worth it in the end. β™₯ We can't wait to show you the final result - Only 3 days until launch! πŸ•¦πŸ•§

Sometimes miracles happen on set - like this day we were setting up for my photo shoot at a clients place. I was lucky enough to see a beautiful deer outside the window! This is exactly why we always lovingly refer to this project as the "enchanted forest" project. 🦌🌲✨

Have you ever heard of a "Listello"? Apparently no one else had either! πŸ˜… Come with me on an impromptu shopping trip to find the perfect accent tile - a little piece of trim that will act as a border to the subway tile in an upcoming bathroom renovation. ✨
