To the second floor of the princess margaret grand prize lottery show home your immediate view is this stunning window that is basically carried through the two stories and looks out to the backyard. when you reach the very top of the second landing it's really its very own entryway and achieved that just by creating some open space. where you can really feel that you're invited into another part of the home the office is a space that really could have been an additional bedroom. it was important to really consider our work at home space and i wanted to bring that upstairs to create some privacy. it again is a retreat that may not be a nine to five office space it may be utilized as a homework station or just a place to go and sit and curl up and read a book. the principal bedroom was a lot of fun to design because of the size and scale and the way.
it is situated you have the beauty of having the light from the front of the house as well as the back of the house and it feels like your own independent retreat. we did a darker ceiling here we did a ton of applied molding on the walls and we really mixed again different metals in different woods and it has that relaxed. unfittedness that going with throughout the home but also feels very intimate and private for the users. the ensuite really we had the opportunity to create different zones had the ability to do two separate built-in vanities but also an oversized shower and i think the layering of different marbles the dramatic black natural stone of the shower.But also the warmth of the floor tile has created this wonderful juxtaposition have one bedroom here that i set up for multiple children and this room is enormous. it's one of the largest rooms in the home and it was well situated at the back of the house to create two separate independent zones. so managed to have two queen size beds in this room plus wall-to-wall desk and storage area it's a very warm and inviting space and i think it could be used by the eldest teenagers in your home. but also the youngest students as well here i wanted the washroom to feel more than just functional but also to have a little beauty and a little fun the colorway in this room really is well layered. as well from some of the rich blue grays to wallpaper in the walls and of course built-in cabinetry in the ensuite as well. It's really important to feel as if your spaces are a reflection of you and as simple as some family photos on the shelves or some beautiful finishing pieces in your washroom.
As well it makes you feel complete in that room the nursery was one of my favorite spaces to design it was actually one of the first spaces completed in the home although there is a crib in there now it's very easy to see how this would then be able to evolve into a twin bed or a queen bed as a child gets older. created some wonderful zones in this space not only for the child to play and grow and take their first steps but also as parents to be able to sit in there and enjoy. your time with your yellow ones it's always interesting to sort of mix that light fresh whiteness that we have outside in the main room. but also to take a step and go a little bolder and dark in the bathroom as well the bedroom at the end of the hall its positioning creates this quiet sanctuary again the size and scope of this room is enormous. we have a king-sized bed in here we have a separate sort of desk or relaxation area it is warm with a beautiful ballet white on the walls but also layered with a natural grass cloth wallpaper and applied moldings the laundry room is tucked away we actually have created some open cabinetry. it's not stuffed with towels and bedding and things that you don't want to see it's actually designed so that the door can be left open here i went with a black and white color palette it's fresh it's young it's still inviting and i think a space anyone would want to spend time in if you have to do your laundry so now that we've finished all of the second level which is huge and enormous in size and scale we're not quite finished yet so we'll go downstairs to the lower level to see all of the incredible things we've included there you.
