The Mississauga Residence

The Elms Residence

This new custom home in Erin, Ontario is set for construction in the summer of 2022. 

This very wide lot in the rural town of Erin gave us the perfect stage to present the front exterior with tremendous sprawling curb appeal. The exterior style is the classic French Chateau style with a bit of a modern twist to it.  

The proposed house features a very spacious main floor with very grand 2-storey ceiling heights in the Great Room and Foyer. The home is very wide which gave us the perfect opportunity to maximize on the window sizes and create beautiful overlooks onto the fascinating rear landscape & foliage that this property has to offer. 
  
The second storey features 4 bedrooms, each with it's own ensuite and walk-in closet as well as railings in the shared hallways overlooking the 2-storey spaces to give a very grand affect. 
We are excited to see this project come to life in the near future and happy to add this exciting piece to our portfolio.

The Bingle Residence

This wood siding addition to an existing 1 ½” brick storey dwelling has provided extra room for this family’s main floor, specifically for a new family room and a larger 3 piece washroom with laundry services. While keeping some of the existing brick in the interior space as a featured wall, the client plan to renovate the space as modern to meet the times. Materials such as Hardwood and 3 panel glass windows are expected to be used.

The Meadowood Residence

What better way to utilize your backyard space despite the unpredictable Canadian weather than a rear side sunroom addition? This family opted for just that, wanting a cozy area to spend time together in year round. Retractable screen doors help maximize the natural ventilation of the space, while the large windows let in lots of light. A flat roof was also added to cover the back porch, allowing anyone outside to stay dry even in the event of bad weather. Overall, a covered back porch and a sunroom are great options to help you enjoy your backyard everyday!

The Carling Residence

Back in 2018, this was existing 3 storey 27 unit apartment building located in Hamilton, ON. 

Today, we are currently finishing up construction for adding 8 new apartment basement units! 

The idea we had was to convert this building existing basement storage rooms into 8 1-bed, 1 bath apartment units. Th structure and space was already there, we told advantage of that and made the decide to proceed with this concept. 

One issue that we had and most others will have in Hamilton is the required parking as per the zoning bylaws. That said, we developed our drawings and worked with our planners and went to the committee of adjustment for this minor variance and WON! 

Fast forward to 2021 and we have 2 of the 8 units done and finishing the rest before the end of 2021. 

With a strong design team, experience planners and a reliable contractor we have almost completed one of our biggest projects to date! 

Investors who are looking into add more value to their existing buildings, note that we can help and guide you through this!

To name just a few of the net zero features of this home:
1) solar panels spanning the entire rear roof covering, positioned for most strategic use of sunlight exposure. 
2) ICF foundation walls offering a very energy efficient alternative compared to standard wood framing. 
3) Legalett concrete slab on grade providing in floor heating and heat recovery measures. 
4) Careful precise locating of windows for minimum heat loss and solar gains, along with extra efficient window u-values. 
5) Low maintenance durable exterior material selection.

The Hughson Residence

The Highland Residence

This cost effective, yet charming small rear addition in Cambridge is currently under construction. 
We designed the addition on techno metal posts, which are a very budget friendly alternative to concrete foundation. These posts provide proven strength while minimizing excavation impacts and the need to dig up your entire backyard!

The interior of this addition features an open concept family room keeping structural impacts to the original house to an absolute minimum. 
We also utilized the original house brick on the back face of the house as a feature on the interior which will be painted out. 

On the exterior, we proposed a contrast of sidings & black batten borders to create some interest using cost friendly board & batten siding. 
Most clients do not think of it, but painting out the existing brick on your house is a very cost friendly way to "freshen up" your exterior. 

The Heathwood Residence

The Underwood Residence

The Peter Residence

All with a reasonable cost well within our client’s budget.

The Cedarbrae Residence

Located in the heart of Milton and set to be constructed this Summer, we have proposed a full second storey addition to this home, nearly doubling the current square footage. 

With the fluctuating real estate market being what it is, an addition might just be the solution
for you, to get the space that your family needs without having to relocate. And at the same time, it gives you the luxury of customizing it to cator your family’s specific needs. Feel feel to reach out to us for a free consult to explore the potential of your property. 

Our clients were very interested in the farmhouse modern exterior look, which is now a very popular trend and a very cost effective way to go. 
With minimalistic, simple clean lines, its a great way to bring a modern flare to your home, while keeping within budget. 

We are looking forward to overseeing the construction of this home and can’t wait to see this nice growing family enjoy the space that they deserve. 

The Lakeshore Residence

Coming Soon ! This home located in Lorne Park across from Jack Darling Park and just minutes from the lake will be renovated this summer and we were happy to be a part of designing this exciting renovation. 

On the exterior, we have modernized the style on a modest budget with some simple yet very effective techniques. We are proposing to paint the brick to more neutral colours, replacing all the windows and doors, and introducing a new wood banding feature that we feel will dramatically spruce up the exterior. 
We are also proposing a rooftop balcony over the garage which take full advantage of the amazing view of  Lake Ontario towards the front of the property. 

Internally, we have opened up the spaces to create a more open concept floor play and better functioning rooms. 

Stay tuned as we are excited to see this come into production!

I had the pleasure of working with Alice on redecorating my childhood home that hadn’t been touched up since I was a teen in the 80’s. I knew it needed a huge refresh aesthetically, but I wasn’t sure where to start. I had a consultation with Alice about my hazy ideas and she was able to understand my tastes and needs after just one chat! The whole design process was so streamlined and thorough that my fears of things going awry totally vanished after the first few meetings. She walked me through every step of the process, from sharing sketches and moodboards to purchasing the final pieces of furniture and decoration. Working with Alice at Atelier Cohen has got to be my greatest investment, I highly recommend their services.
