When you spend much of your time on the road or catching flights, coming home should be effortless. This professional wanted to transform her property in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve into a personal space that matched her lifestyle.<\/p>

The goal of this custom renovation was to create a home that served a dual purpose: a place to fully unwind after a trip, yet one with the seamless flow needed to host family and friends at a moment\u2019s notice.<\/p>

By rethinking the interior layout, every square meter was optimized to strike a balance between privacy and sociability. The result is an inviting sanctuary where one can instantly disconnect, without sacrificing the joy of hosting and gathering loved ones in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/article>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

This custom renovation project aimed to completely redesign the duplex to meet sometimes conflicting needs. The goal was to create open and welcoming living spaces while preserving intimate and functional areas such as our client’s bedroom.<\/p>
The initial location of the staircase, which was not optimized, presented a major constraint. Completely redesigning the flow between the ground floor and the basement was an exciting challenge that allowed us to come up with an innovative plan, perfectly suited to the client’s aspirations. In addition, the existing style did not reflect her personality, requiring a complete aesthetic reconfiguration.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
