Best of Canada Canadian Interiors magazine : The Fun Client

Some homes are beautiful. Others stay with you.

The difference is never the stone, the wood, or the furniture. It's the feeling they leave behind. The quiet moments, the conversations that linger, the light that changes throughout the day, and the memories waiting to be made (if a certain someone stops covering all the furniture).

Grateful to The Fun Client for trusting the process and allowing this vision to come to life.

And to the legend who forever changed my perspective on life and has been a role model ever since, thank you. Your influence reaches far beyond work, and I'm endlessly grateful for everything you've taught me.

We didn’t design this house to be safe.
We designed it to breathe, to provoke, to hold conversations the moment you walk through the archway.

To our clients who trusted us with their memories, to our team who carried the details, to every consultant who steered the ship when the waves got weird, Thank You.

And to Rosemary Poole, thank you for seeing the soul of this home and telling its story with so much care.

Still wrapping our heads around this one! Our home, captured by some of our favourite creatives, is now living in the pages of one of our favourite magazines.

It’s surreal to see a space that started with sketches and chaos turn into something worth publishing.

Huge love to everyone who helped shape it, and to the artists who let us represent their work. This one is for the books!

This Emirates Hills residence is a study in restrained luxury, where natural materials take center stage.

In the bedroom, softly textured beige wall panels wrap the space in warmth, while wood flooring introduces a contemporary contrast that feels both grounded and refined. The overall palette is serene, designed to evoke calm without sacrificing sophistication.

In the bathroom, materiality becomes the focal point. A sculptural travertine bathtub anchors the space, its light tone and tactile surface offering a rich counterpoint to the otherwise minimal detailing. The result is a quiet but confident display of natural beauty and tailored craftsmanship.

I asked my wife what to write and she said "good"!

House in Aoyama

An office worth working from home for!

Lay in something exquisite!

A warm universe of light tones and textured natural materials.

Playing with bold textures and luxe finishes.
