When Monday mornings look like this you know it’s going to be a great week.
What is our true purpose as designers? To create moments for pause in every corner.

“There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in.” - Graham Greene
Don’t ya just love when light fixtures go up in a project??
Spent a couple hours over the weekend tweaking details on this kitchen plan. Build is coming close to complete, but because I have time to change my mind, weeeelll...you know I’m gonna do it!
Small detail shifts are going to make the final result even better than we originally expected!
Sure, the devil is in the details, but they really are the secret ingredient that transforms a design into something quite remarkable.
My goal is to ALWAYS aim for REMARKABLE !
It’s currently snowing outside.😢
Yup, May snow is a regular thing here in Alberta. So I’m choosing to remember sunny skies and warm lazy days at the cabin.
Deep breath in....and sigh.

Tub or shower.
If you had to choose one, what would it be?

“Be careful what you set your heart upon, for it will surely be yours.”
- James Baldwin -
It’s been some time now since we finished this iconic project, but with today being the first day of spring (YAY!) it seemed fitting to reminisce. Inspired by the natural beauty of the river that passes through the property the home sits on, weathered wood and pebbles were brought indoors to make for an inspiring place to prepare for the day. Rustic and luxury in perfect harmony.
Happy First Day of Spring people!

Oh, how we love details! The little “magic dust” that makes the grand picture come together 🖤

Oh the anticipation...
•of warm sunny mornings
•of welcoming guests into your home
•of the sound of birds singing
•of the “new normal” becoming merely a piece of history
—we are getting close to soooo many wonderfully uplifting changes, and the anticipation of their arrival has me a tad giddy today.
A future of grand possibilities is at our front door just waiting for us to invite them in!!

Oooh my goodness, I can’t contain the excitement!!!!
Construction sites don’t always make for beautiful photos, nor do shots such as this make for lovely social media layouts. But oh they sure make my heart sing! I get incredible joy from the growth of another one of our projects, and I liken the feeling to being a parent; when pride in a child’s journey in life is, at times, just about uncontainable....is that a word? I’m not sure, but I’m going to use it in this case as no other word expresses better the feeling a designer gets from seeing and idea take root & become reality.
Ooooh the joy!!!
A little steel, a slab of local Cottonwood, a touch of lime plaster and a whole lot of “let’s knock their sock off”!!!
We may have concocted the perfect recipe for a western inspired, modern-rustic powder room that will have guests excusing themselves to go powder their noses all day long!!!

She asked for an injection of “Wow” when guests enter their home.
It also needed to be considerate of the ranching history of the region.
The result was this modern take on the classic hand hewn log cabins built by pioneers who shaped this very area over a century ago!
... a perfect backdrop for the stunning paintings by the artist in residence.

Just arrived at the studio, this beauty was a Kijiji purchase....cuz I spent waaaaay too much time online during the lockdown in April 😂.
So it sat in storage all year, waiting to be re-invented into something more, well, memorable.
A couple months back I visited a local purveyor of leather & hide and was immediately distracted by the oiled skins in the belt and chaps shelves. I just love the feel of supple oiled leather, and to my surprise I also felt drawn to touch the scars left behind by red hot branding irons. So much so that I couldn’t leave the shop without a couple of those thick, weighty rolls of “gold” under my arm! Next up was the task of convincing the upholsterer to work this heavy duty and unforgiving cowboy leather on a delicate Louis XVI chair. Oh ya, and put those brands front and Centre please!!!
I have to say, the result has me more than just a little enamored! Would you agree?
.
Swipe to see the chair before.
Getting ready to take on the world.
A big big big year ahead!
This time last year we were photographing this recently completed project. The year of 2020 was looking to be a busy one full of exciting country estate projects filling our schedule into late winter....little did we know that only a few weeks ahead of us the entire world would be turned upside down!
And now here we are, getting close to 1 year into a whole new perspective on life, work and family. All that was familiar now is seemingly out of reach, and comfort had to be intentionally created from within, because, well, we were forbidden to take comfort with friends and family.
And so, what did I learn?
You never know what tomorrow may bring, so chase that dream, turn “one day” into today, and give yourself permission to be wild and reckless.
Get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Take big steps into the unknown. Attempt something you know you are guaranteed to not be perfect at, and in doing so you can discover a whole world of grand adventures just waiting for you!
Because life is meant to be embraced & lived like a storybook adventure, not observed from behind the living room window.
Happy Sunday friends!!

Isn’t it amazing how the morning sun can find a canvas just about anywhere to paint another masterpiece!
Another inspiring and heartwarming day in #albertacanada
I never tire of seeing this calm and embracing space show up on my feed. Beautifully composed by @studiomcgee ...have you seen their new show on Netflix? I haven’t yet, so tell us what you think of it!

Saturday evenings spent surrounded by worn leather, rustic wood, a Texas longhorn, and a Pendleton blanket are the best!
This look on my face pretty much sums up how I am feeling these days. Looking forward to chasing and achieving some pretty big and bodacious goals for our team in the New Year.
Peace out 2020!

-Mark Twain
Merry Christmas all!!
Had to share a little Before & After glimpse of a project we just gave back to to a lovely couple today....just in time for Christmas!
