Make it stand out.
The interior design of this two-story home maintains the integrity of the existing character of the home while enhancing the functionality of the spaces, giving them a sophisticated simplicity with a neutral and warm material palette.
Challenges
Boldera was asked to develop a project for the renovation of an existing semi-detached home in the west end of Toronto. Initially, the home had an unfinished basement, outdated interiors, and a garage that was beyond repair leading to a laneway at the back of the property. The very limited footprint of the house was also an additional challenge to be able to meet the objectives of the project.
Solution
Our scope included interior and exterior design of the main house, and the development of an accessory structure that could double as a garage, and a laneway house in the future.
With a creative layout, we were able to design an open and modern living space, that feels open and bright. The basement is now seamlessly integrated with the rest of the house and the backyard is the oasis that this family envisioned.
