We received an email from Amber of Māk Interiors, about an extensive renovation project she took on of a heritage home in Vancouver’s South Granville area. The home had great bones, but needed to be completely gutted to open up the tiny rooms and make the home more spacious and family friendly. It is a wonderful example of how you can modernize a traditional/historic home without losing its character. And I am all for the if-you-can’t-make-it-work-gut-it philosophy.

Here are a couple of before photos. 

And this is what it looks like after Amber had her way with it. 🙂 You can read more about it here. 

Oh YES. These spaces are divine, by the talented Blair Harris. 

I love every inch of this Cobble Hill townhouse designed by Blair Harris. The black trim in the dining room, the dark floors, the black and white kitchen complete with subway tiles, butcherblock counter and exposed beams and that beautiful blue (I’m considering a similar colour for my kitchen). Fresh and sophisticated, while very welcoming. 

I’ll be curled up here, book in hand, mind a million miles away. By Jeffrey Alan Marks.

I love James of BRICKS Amsterdam‘s work so much that I could just stick a mattress in a corner of this Thom Sweeney shop in London and call it home.
