オタワのLDKのインテリア・コーディネート事例
The dining room is the room with a view! Flanked on all sides with windows and anchored by a stunning, central fireplace wall, with window seats on either side. A great place to curl up and read a book or simply hang out while someone cooks in the kitchen.
Contemporary dining area with chandelier, transom windows, and hardwood floors

We are a young newly wed couple who decided to ask for cash gifts at our wedding so we could decorate our new digs. We received the keys the morning after becoming Mr & Mrs Leclair, and to this day we have yet to take a honeymoon. Both of us had a brewing passion for modern interior decorating that needed to be fulfilled. Our previous 1 bedroom apartment was a great warm up but the real challenge was ahead. We received generous gifts to get us started but after the wedding, closing costs and a few unexpected costs we were left with a fairly conservative budget to work with.
First up was painting. None of the existing loud colours in the house were really to our liking. So started the giant task of painting every single wall in the house. Oh, and throw the garage and front entrance doors in there also. Thankfully Melissa works at a paint store so we were able to receive a few free cans and some really good deals on others. Quick shout out to Benjamin Moore and Pittsburgh Paints reps. After accomplishing this feat (with the help of family & friends) we decided a few walls needed some punch. A little wallpaper you say? Why not.
Next up was lighting. Most of the fixtures were out of date or not giving us the desired effects. With the help of our handy uncle Rob, we changed every single fixture in the house and out. A few have actually been changed twice. Always a learning curb, right? We splurged on a few pendants from specialized shops but most have been big box store purchases to keep us on budget. Don’t worry, when we strike it rich we’ll have Moooi pendants galore.
After the hard (wasn’t that bad) labor came time to pick furniture pieces to fill out the house. We had ordered most of the big ticket items before the move but we still needed to find the filler pieces. Had a great time driving around town and meeting local shop owners. After most of the furniture shopping was complete we had next to nothing left over for art and a lot of empty walls needed some love. Most of the art in the house are pictures we took ourselves, had printed locally and mounted in Ikea frames. We also headed down to the local art supply store and bought a few canvases on sale. Using left over house paint we created some large bold abstract pieces.
A year has now passed since we first got the keys and we’re, mostly done. Being home owners now, we also realized that we’ll never actually be done. There’s always something to improve upon. Melissa’s office hung in the balance of our undecided minds but after a recent retro chair purchase we’ve been re-inspired. That room is coming along nicely and we should have pictures up shortly. Most of what we’ve done are cosmetic changes. We still plan on upgrading the kitchen, upstairs bath and replacing the old carpets for some swanky hardwood floors. All in due time.

The owners of this charming French Cape Cod style wanted to expand their living spaces with an addition. Their design requirements specified that the roof, dormers, windows, and master bedroom balcony door not be disturbed. The perfect creative solution would capitalize on the view of the backyard swimming pool, provide open entertaining spaces, and invite the flow of natural light.
An existing three-season room was removed and replaced by a one-storey flat roof addition. This new space allowed the creation of an open dining room and den, each flowing seamlessly into the other. Two six-foot terrace doors visually and practically integrate the outdoors. White tiled floors and mirrored backsplashes combine with the exposed stone to create a very pleasing modern twist, in an otherwise traditional home. The new kitchen offers more than double the counter and storage space, while its clean white cabinets add to the contemporary feel. A sunken wet bar provides a practical spot for preparing cocktails.
Heating and cooling and indoor air quality of the addition and kitchen was a challenge due to the existing boiler system. The existing stone walls had to be addressed to avoid thermal bridging and cold infiltration. A new 97% high efficiency boiler was installed, as well as hydronic in-floor radiant heat.
The improvements to the exterior are stunning! The once awkward exit onto the rear patio has been eliminated and you now find yourself directly on the updated pool deck. The new flat roof provided space for a master suite balcony, which also brings natural light into the second storey.
The open floor plan allows easy entertaining in a light-filled space with tons of style! Our client’s have told us that we have exceeded their expectations! What more could we ask for?
Contemporary open concept living room and dining room with neutral earth inspires stone like the wood dining room table and stump side table as well as natural stacked stone on the walls.

Previously renovated with a two-story addition in the 80’s, the home’s square footage had been increased, but the current homeowners struggled to integrate the old with the new.
An oversized fireplace and awkward jogged walls added to the challenges on the main floor, along with dated finishes. While on the second floor, a poorly configured layout was not functional for this expanding family.
From the front entrance, we can see the fireplace was removed between the living room and dining rooms, creating greater sight lines and allowing for more traditional archways between rooms.
At the back of the home, we created a new mudroom area, and updated the kitchen with custom two-tone millwork, countertops and finishes. These main floor changes work together to create a home more reflective of the homeowners’ tastes.
On the second floor, the master suite was relocated and now features a beautiful custom ensuite, walk-in closet and convenient adjacency to the new laundry room.
