Rustic Living Room Redesign (Toronto, Canada)
Every project below was completed entirely online using photos and video walkthroughs provided by the homeowner.
A family was preparing to move into a new home and wanted to start decorating from scratch, beginning with the living room. The space had great architectural features: a stone fireplace with built-in shelving and cabinetry, large windows, and an open connection to the kitchen, but the homeowners struggled to visualize how everything could work together.
They knew a few things for certain: they wanted a warm and inviting atmosphere, they disliked ultra-modern interiors, they needed furniture that could withstand life with two young children, and they hoped to fit a small dining area into the living room since the kitchen had no dedicated eating space. What they needed wasn’t just a furniture layout — they needed a complete design direction they could confidently build from.
