One can dream
Wed, 20 Apr 2011Once upon a time there were some very well-off folks in Vancouver who wanted big new homes. They called upon a builder by the name of Keysone Projects Ltd. and asked them to build the homes of their dreams. They asked for fancy kitchens and bathrooms and rooms for their pool tables and views to die for and a car lover's garage. And POOF! Keystone made it happen. And they were beautiful. This, my friends, is how the other half live.
The end.

Wow! just Wow! I love kitchens! And this kitchen is like a dream come true, with its exposed brick, and all that dark wood.. i adore this house. I so want to be part of the other half just for this kitchen, and the pool table room, and the roof lounge...
These are fantastic!
the first two are definitely my favourite - to be able to walk out of your kitchen to that is gorgeous. and the setting is amazing in both.

WOW! That's my kind of house-- fabulous design, interior and exterior. Even a car turn table (which I haven't seen in years) with a lovely Porche on top!
That is living the way it was back in the not so far past! Nice to see the photos though.
Zoinks! Unreal! It's like a hotel, a great restaurant, and the most beautiful setting imagineable all wrapped up! They have even managed to put the kid's train set in a great location. Do folks like this have clutter? Is it just removed for the photos? (Please tell me yes!)
*sigh* especially the first two photos, and the living room with the vaulted-ceiling-peak skylights. *double sigh*
Love the formal living room with Thomas Train table as coffee table. Such a lovely way to live with children's things as part of the decor instead of a giant eyesore and clutter.
Are you trying to make us jealous? lol
yes, i can dream!!
I LOVE basins with no mirror over!
wow. can you say "ostentatious"? i'd take any of the simple swedish interiors over this. sorry.
Wowsa! I choose the first house.
YES PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will move into any of those homes... STAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"This, my friends, is how the other half live."
The other half? Perhaps the other half of 1%.
Still, at least they spent their money buying good taste. And they have dancing bunny statues, so they can't be COMPLETELY evil.
That ocean living room and rooftop... O_O Stunning!
I could live in that kitchen. Not that I need much inspiration to cook but that one would set me off! Deborah, Green Light District Design, Ottawa
What are ya talkin about, you mean the other 5%! Ha ha
Arghhh - I live in Vancouver and this post is just cruel. I will live vicariously through the eyes of that Porche.
I love this house! But the first bathroom, especially, is to die for.
Yea I live in Vancouver and this is why its depressing sometimes, cause sadly it is not 1% and feels closer to half because there are soo many rich people here and SO many expensive houses, seriously the avg house in vancouver is like a million dollars now.
I've been to both of these houses for different reasons. The first one was at night for the fireworks and my son dropped his ipod touch from the roof and he was crying because he thought a seagull was going to take it away. True story, he was 7.
LOVE this home
Nice work all around... the snooker table is impressive especially in a personal residence. I think the second kitchen with the marble top island is what's in store for our next kitchen upgrade!
These houses are just to die for.
a few changes to the internal design than this home exactly what I want to.
