GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN – 15th edition
Discipline : Interior Design : Grand Winner
Categories : Residence / Second bathroom and Washroom : Gold Certification, Platinum Winner
Now airy, bright and modern, the annex that was once the servants’ quarters of this ancestral house in Outremont, was a dark, cramped space before remodeling began in 2019. The mission, along with making the bathrooms more functional, was to open it up and create a space for reading that evoked something like the lounging deck of a ship on a transatlantic crossing.
The secondary bathroom features a large vertical window that follows the angle of the roof. The remodelling also includes several custom accessories, including the vanity, the steel towel rack and the worktop beneath the mirror.
Though the project is distinctly contemporary, articulating spaces that reflect a lifestyle wholly anchored in the present, it pulls off a rare feat of balance, hinging on respect for the building’s rare heritage.
