camilleriparismode projects and design team were approached to rethink a previously unused double height room in a wonderful villa. the lower part of the room was planned as a sitting and dining area, the sub level above as a tv den and games room. as the occupants enjoy their time together as a family, as well as their shared love of books, a floor-to-ceiling library was an ideal way of using and linking the large volume. the large library covers one wall of the room spilling into the den area above. it is given a sense of movement by the differing sizes of the verticals and shelves, broken up by randomly placed closed cupboards. the floating marble fireplace at the base of the library unit helps achieve a feeling of lightness despite it being a complex structure, while offering a cosy atmosphere to the family area below. the split-level den is reached via a solid oak staircase, below which is a custom made wine room. the staircase is concealed from the dining area by a high wall, painted in a bold colour on which a collection of paintings is displayed. photos by: brian grech

This California bungalow combines bold colors with natural elements to create a playful yet relaxing retreat.

The outdoors comes inside for our orchid loving homeowners with their moss green wrapped sunroom. Cut with the right balance of earthy brown and soft buttercup, this sunroom sizzles thanks to the detailed use of stone, slate, slubby weaves, classic furnishings & architectural salvage. The mix in total broadcasts sit-for-a-while casual cool and easy elegance. Pass the poi... David Van Scott

A young couple with three small children purchased this full floor loft in Tribeca in need of a gut renovation. The existing apartment was plagued with awkward spaces, limited natural light and an outdated décor. It was also lacking the required third child’s bedroom desperately needed for their newly expanded family. StudioLAB aimed for a fluid open-plan layout in the larger public spaces while creating smaller, tighter quarters in the rear private spaces to satisfy the family’s programmatic wishes. 3 small children’s bedrooms were carved out of the rear lower level connected by a communal playroom and a shared kid’s bathroom. Upstairs, the master bedroom and master bathroom float above the kid’s rooms on a mezzanine accessed by a newly built staircase. Ample new storage was built underneath the staircase as an extension of the open kitchen and dining areas. A custom pull out drawer containing the food and water bowls was installed for the family’s two dogs to be hidden away out of site when not in use. All wall surfaces, existing and new, were limited to a bright but warm white finish to create a seamless integration in the ceiling and wall structures allowing the spatial progression of the space and sculptural quality of the midcentury modern furniture pieces and colorful original artwork, painted by the wife’s brother, to enhance the space. The existing tin ceiling was left in the living room to maximize ceiling heights and remain a reminder of the historical details of the original construction. A new central AC system was added with an exposed cylindrical duct running along the long living room wall. A small office nook was built next to the elevator tucked away to be out of site.

Photography: Frits de Vries Situated on the West side of Vancouver, this family home sits on a gently sloping site with oblique downtown and mountain views from the front of the house. The rear garden faces south. The house is designed for ample indoor-outdoor living opportunities, as well as a sense of connection to the gardens and view. The main floor level is placed low enough for easy access to the rear garden, but high enough to allow light into the lower floor. Two courtyards and a lightwell further enhance the lower floor, making it as livable as the other floor levels in the house. The lower level rear courtyard slopes up to join the rear garden, giving an exterior connection between the floor levels. The front of the main floor is oriented to the distant views of downtown Vancouver and the mountains to the Northeast, captured through extensive corner glazing. The rear of the house is focussed on the private garden and entertaining patio. The West side of the main floor contains the active functions of the house: mudroom, kitchen, powder room, office, stairs, and has a 9’-0” ceiling height. The East half contains the Living, Dining and Family Rooms and has an 11’-0” ceiling height with exposed wood beams. A linear skylight brings light through the exposed timber beams in the vaulted Living room ceiling. Folding doors open up the Family Room to the patio and built-in barbeque. The garage was designed to enhance the outdoor living space and to create a courtyard effect. The upper floor is divided into two floating volumes, separated by a double-height slot with a continuous skylight running the length of the house. The two halves are split level, lending excitement to the main floor space below; they are connected by a stair-bridge. One half houses the private master bedroom suite, and the other contains the two bedrooms, bathrooms and a small convenience laundry. The rooftop deck offers more outdoor living, and includes a large seating area and a hot tub. Where the main garden patio will be used for entertaining and outdoor dining, the rooftop provides the family a private retreat. More photos to come when the project is complete.
