Do you know the history of the pool table?
“The earliest recorded playing of a recognisable form of billiards was in France in the 1340s. Played as an outdoor lawn game similar to croquet, it eventually moved indoors and onto a wooden table with green cloth to resemble grass on which it had been previously played. By the early 18th century indoor billiards was a favoured past time of the French nobility and English gentry.”

Perfection is not absolute. It is subjective. It is defined by the soul’s desire for fulfillment.
Maintaining the imperfection of time, wear, weather, and even decay is the secret to adding dimension to the story of a building. Weathered wood, barnwood, reclaimed and rustic…all beautiful ways to describe the perfectly imperfect beauty that gives a breath of mystery and nostalgia to a home.
For me, it’s not a trend (though popularity has been growing over the past decade), it’s a statement, about awareness, and stewardship. It’s who I am, and how I share my spirit with my clients…my ‘people’.
I am fueled every day by the natural wonder of imperfect wood.
Who’s with me?

Grateful for:
• magnificent views found both near and far
• the love of friends, family, and clients
• the adventures of every new day
• this amazing, precious journey called life
(Can you hear the River in the background?)
Happy 🇨🇦 Thanksgiving!!
RUSTIC, with a dash of MODERN ELEGANCE and a whole lot of understated LUXURY.
The modern west has always had an inexplicable draw that reaches to just about every corner of the world.
This is where simplicity and authenticity marry effortlessly with the nostalgia of simpler times and the romanticism of an old western movie.
Creating these soul touching experiences gives me immense joy and fulfillment. Couldn’t imagine doing anything else!!

“Is not this a true autumn day? Just the still melancholy that I love — that makes life and nature harmonize.”
- George Eliot -
DETAILS •••••The definition of home has evolved immensely in the past year and a half, and yet my focus on designing the “experience” of a home has remained steadfast:
—- the things you touch every day —-
day in and day out - sometimes hundreds of times in a week…those things that are a part of our sanctuary and recovery, our family connection and nourishment of our souls…those things things that have the most opportunity to silently add or detract from our lives, not from opulence, but from the mere function that they serve, as small and insignificant they may seem in the bigger picture…
…because they have such opportunity to impact a moment, a feeling, an action, or an experience in a positive way…
—those things should never be ordinary—-

I can’t lie.
I loooove the idea of sleeping for hours with no chance of an alarm breaking the peace.
While I had every possibility of making the most of a Sunday morning sleep-in, I just couldn’t make it happen!
Just too many great reasons to get up and embrace the day ahead….

“Just because something is traditional is no reason to do it, of course.” - Lemony Snicket
It’s the long weekend.
Time to sit back and reflect on all the sweet moments this life has blessed us with. This shot was taken in the quiet minutes before a heart warming family gathering filled with chaos, laughter, music and LOTS of love.
The best stuff, always!

A huge shoutout to Log & Timber Living Magazine for reminding us all about this story on one of my favorite projects of all time!!
We were deep in the pandemic lockdown last year when I was introduced to their writer down in #nashville via my first of many zoom meetings with her. She did a knockout job of taking my chaotic ramblings about the project and turned them into a storyline that made sense. No easy feat for sure! The article is worth a read….
Repost @loghomeliving - This kitchen boasts two islands, one for serving and entertaining and one for cooking and food prep, each with leathered granite counters. To highlight the peeled Canadian pine logs, the room is devoid of upper cabinets.

Doing laundry on Sunday has been a ritual for me for longer than I can remember. Maybe that’s why I get so excited when we get to turn the workhorse room of a house into a place that lifts the spirit as well as the dirt. 😏

How do you do Sundays?

History. Story. Authenticity.
I just love bringing tired old pieces of the past back to life in our designs.
This 150 yr old hand hewn log barn is en route to the RLD yard today, and destined to be the highlight of a one-if-kind home.
Many thanks to the hard work of our friends, and fellow stewards of #alberta heritage @salvagesolutions !
Timeless. Authentic. Epic.

Fun fact:
the art work you see on this fireplace is a photo I took not far from this property during a drive out to review build progress with the GC. As we were having it printed and framed, one of our designers determined he ought to be named.
So we named him James.

Early mornings. Some people dread them, but I secretly give a little happy dance when heading out for the day extra early. Spectacular views like this are the regular reward for early risers. I’m pretty sure it’s a solid part of the reason cowboys and farmers are so dedicated to heading out to work while the rest of us are still hours away from hitting the snooze button. It’s a tough job they have, but peaceful moments like this fill the soul in a way no paycheque ever could.
Happy Stampede week!

“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.
