Upside Development completed this Mill Pond new construction bungaloft in Richmond Hill. This project was tailored to specific client requirements to build a bungalow-style home. “Living on the main floor” was the design parameters. With a large master and ensuite and 2 additional bedrooms on the ground floor, this home is filled with natual lighting with 18’ open ceilings in the living room. Two additional guest bedrooms, shared bathroom and large den were designed for the 2nd floor 1/2 story.

We have gotten many questions about the stairs: They were custom designed and built in place by the builder - and are not available commercially. The entry doors were also custom made. The floors are constructed of a baked white oak surface-treated with an ebony analine dye. The stair handrails are painted black with a polyurethane top coat. Photo Credit: Sam Gray Photography

This is the modern, industrial side of the home. The floor-to-ceiling steel windows and spiral staircase bring a contemporary aesthetic to the house. The 19' Kolbe windows capture sweeping views of Mt. Rainier, the Space Needle and Puget Sound.

Feature Staircase

A contemporary home design for clients that featured south-facing balconies maximising the sea views, whilst also creating a blend of outdoor and indoor rooms. The spacious and light interior incorporates a central staircase with floating stairs and glazed balustrades. Revealed wood beams against the white contemporary interior, along with the wood burner, add traditional touches to the home, juxtaposing the old and the new. Photographs: Alison White
