This project involved the full renovation and furnishing of a heritage semi-detached home in Westmount—a property with beautiful architectural roots. The clients, a young couple, wanted to preserve the home’s historic charm while weaving in modern, youthful elements that matched their lifestyle and aesthetic. To bring this vision to life, several windows were reconfigured and significant structural work was completed to improve natural light, circulation, and functionality without compromising character. Throughout the process, our team procured and managed all finishes and installations, collaborating closely with the various trades to ensure each detail was executed seamlessly.
Calacatta Monet marble became a defining material throughout the home, chosen for its expressive veining and timeless elegance. Paired with newly added wall moldings and custom crown moldings, the stone contributes to an atmosphere that feels both luxurious and deeply rooted in old-world tradition. These architectural details were designed to feel as though they had always belonged to the house.
Warm copper and brass finishes were selected for plumbing fixtures, adding richness and an inviting patina that complements the home’s heritage.
In the basement, the design shifts to a moody, speakeasy-inspired retreat where the couple can host friends. Complete with a bar, fireplace, pool table, and lounge area, the space is wrapped in dark Venetian-textured walls that create depth, drama, and a cozy, intimate ambiance.
The result is a home that seamlessly blends past and present, offering timeless character with a fresh, personal touch.
