Project Update: Hillhurst

The inner city home we have under construction in Hillhurst is close to being wrapped up and it is just stunning, come and take a peek before we finish it off...

Love this dining room; the ceiling, wainscoting, and deep dark color...can't wait to see the light installed!

The mud room cabinetry came out lovely, we still have doors to install on the bottom portion, the clients wanted to be able to hide the mess that always accumulates in this space.


Oh the mess!!! Lighting boxes everywhere, tile being installed...gotta love the last few weeks before a possession. The kitchen is going to simply be STUNNING once it is complete. Once the cabinet doors are installed, accent lighting turned on, and the space cleaned, LOVE!


We used a 1x1 dark grey glass mosaic where the cook-top will be located and then a split face stone for the perimeter, here is a blurry shot of our sweet tile setter doing the instal. 


Close up detail of the cornice & bulk-head that goes around the entire kitchen. We had a nasty beam that we had to work around...after much headache it turned out wonderful, another reason why I love built-on-site cabinetry, you can't do this with pre-fab! On the left is a close up of the split face back splash paired with River White granite.


There is a Jack & Jill bathroom on the second level, the clients fell in love with the bath I have for our boys in our new home (on the right), so we went with the same white hexagon floor tile, black pencil liners, and white subway tiles. To top it off we will be installing wallpaper by Cole & Sons.
The tile work is almost completed in the master bathroom (on the left) with pebbles inlayed in the shower floor and the back of the niche that will have floating glass shelves for shampoo bottles. The other main bathroom has a fun and youthful blue glass & marble mosaic, it is so fresh, love it. 


I'll share more images once we have the home photographed...when it is cleaned and finished. Thanks so much for taking a little peek and here is to a better day today than yesterday. I managed to get into a car accident, drop 5lbs of frozen blueberries all over my kitchen, find out my little guy has a nasty infection, and the older one coming down with what I think is the flu. It can only get better, so here is to a kick butt Tuesday!! Mel xo
