Budget friendly spaces

I've just completed a 2-bedroom model suite in a modest multi-residential building outside of Toronto. Asked by the client to keep costs down, again I utilized some of existing pieces of furniture from their previous show suite - it just needed some updating.

By injecting some new accessories and pops of colour into each room, the space now feels fresh and inviting.






My favourite is the children's room. I had a blank canvas to work with, and transformed it into a fun, and happy room.

Be my guest


Before

Deep in the heart of one of Toronto's most coveted and older neighbourhoods were two residential buildings with guest suites that needed an overhaul.

The larger of the two was a 2-bedroom suite. I utilized a few existing furniture pieces (in the bedrooms) to keep the budget in check - and hey, if they're still in working condition, why not save the environment? But for the Living and Dining spaces I started from scratch, taking inspiration from some fabulous art pieces. The space is now updated, sophisticated and ready for guests!

Here are some shots of the Bachelor suite. I worked with the existing wall colour that was recently painted and gave the space sleeping, working and lounging zones - all with a hit of glam!
