The latest decor and lifestyle products you are going to love

These drawer fronts are made from bamboo, a sustainable, fast-growing and hard-wearing natural material and the perfect eco-option for a warm and modern-looking kitchen.

By design

When re-doing a kitchen, designer Danielle Paul loves to work from the ground up –deciding on the room’s tone, settling on a countertop design and material, establishing cabinetry colours, and a plan for appliances. Here are her top kitchen trends for 2023.

LIGHTEN THE MOOD

Light tones and neutrals are a top trend for 2023. She says she always likes to start with a neutral palette and then have the option to build with colour if the client desires. A neutral palette evokes a very calm and inviting space, which is especially important for a kitchen, as it’s the hub of the home for many. Paul often leverages panelled appliances with this palette for a seamless look.

GRANITE’S COMEBACK

As far as countertop materials go, granite is making a comeback. Many homeowners select granite because of the slab’s unique patterns and natural and light tones. In addition, granite is an excellent choice for making a statement with the kitchen island, which has become more than a prep station for meals and has transformed into a gathering space, an entertainment hub and a place to make memories.

CABINET CREATIVITY

Warm whites mixed with wood finishes and white oak are trending for kitchen cabinets and will be at the top of designers’ lists this year. Paul has also seen a movement away from the standard uppers in a kitchen. In 2023, people are looking for more interesting elements in their kitchen, such as windows on the perimeter wall, shelves mixed with wall sconces, or more open space on the wall to showcase tile.

SEAMLESS PANELLING

Panelled appliances are still on-trend in 2023. Having fully customizable appliances makes cabinetry feel elongated and creates a cohesive look within any kitchen.

FUNCTION AND FLOW

Paul says she loves the creativity of design, but practical elements are what tie the finished look together. For example, Signature Kitchen Suite’s 48-inch dual-fuel pro range is a game-changer. Not only does the

range fit seamlessly into any kitchen space (as shown in the picture), but it can also turn into the centrepiece. Its multi-purpose function offers premium features such as industry-first built-in sous vide, induction and gas on the cooktop. Meanwhile, it comes equipped with two ovens: An 18-inch True Steam-Combi oven, which combines steam and convection for gourmetlevel results, and a 30-inch oven that features ProHeat convection technology and comes with a rear-wall element to distribute heat evenly.

A recent survey commissioned by Endy shows Canadian couples are willing to do whatever it takes to get a good night’s sleep. More than half of respondents would consider sleeping in a different bed from their partner! Are you struggling in the sleep department? It could be time for a new mattress. The Endy Highbrid combines its award-winning Endy foam with durable pocket springs to provide extra lumbar support, superior comfort and breathability.

Cool Collaboration

Ikea has collaborated with Marimekko to launch the BASTUA collection. The limited-edition collection is inspired by Nordic nature, wellness and self-care rituals. Choose from 25 products with vibrant prints ranging from furniture, glassware and textiles.

“Capturing the essence of Marimekko’s Finnish roots and its connection to the historical origins of sauna culture was a fundamental part of the design journey and the creation of the BASTUA prints,” says Rebekka Bay, creative director at Marimekko.

“Marimekko is committed to bringing joy to the everyday lives of people with its bold prints and designs, and we are excited to see this come true in collaboration with IKEA,” she adds. Visit ikea.ca

TREND: Scalloped edges

The design world continues to imitate the natural world. No doubt you’ve started seeing scallopededged decor pieces everywhere in 2023. Scalloped items are decorated with a series of small curves along the edges. The result is a balance of delicacy and edge (see what I did there, wink). Here are a couple of items we currently have our eye on.

When classic meets modern

Have you considered using stone for your next renovation project?

Dekton’s latest stone collection will get your decorating juices flowing. It is inspired by Italian design and architecture, which have long been admired and revered for its beauty, strength and functionality.

The Pietra Kode collection, in collaboration with renowned designer Daniel Germani, reimagines classic stones into contemporary, modern pieces. “We are excited to officially

launch Pietra Kode, a timeless collection that epitomizes Italian architecture and design, reimagined with the sustainable and durability benefits only found in Dekton. It has been a highly anticipated launch by our clients, and we look forward to seeing their design visions come to life,” says Eduardo Cosentino, CEO of Cosentino North America and EVP of Global Sales.

The collection comprises three series: Vicenza Kode, Travertine Kode, and Ceppo Kode – all expertly crafted with rich shades and textures. What

by SARA DUCK

does this mean for you? Using stone surfaces in the design of your space can add a sense of natural beauty and timeless elegance. Stone surfaces are durable and can withstand wear and tear, making them an excellent choice for high-traffic areas such as countertops, floors and accent walls. Whether used as a statement piece or as a subtle accent, incorporating stone surfaces into your home renovation can create a one-ofa-kind look. We break down the Pietra Kode collection and the Italian influence behind each stone.

VICENZA KODE

The classic Vicenza stone was famously used by architect (and Vitruvius follower) Andrea Palladio in the 16th century to create magnificent villas and palaces in the Italian region of Veneto. Dekton reinterprets the code of this stone to bring warm, earthy neutral tones to the Vicenza Kode collection.

TRAVERTINE KODE

Travertine Kode is a surface material that draws inspiration from the travertine stone used in classical Roman architecture such as the Colosseum, Pantheon and Trevi Fountain. Dekton’s unique ultracompaction process allows the Travertine Kode stone to retain its traditional beauty and properties with modern innovation.

CEPPO KODE

The Ceppo di Gré stone was important in Milan’s architectural history. This distinctive stone is characterized by its natural grey colour and unique texture. Dekton has taken inspiration from the beauty and character of Ceppo di Gré to create Ceppo Kode. This new surface material reinterprets the original stone’s distinctive pebbled pattern that will make a statement indoors and outdoors.

Cosentino prioritizes energy consumption in their production process. As a result, 100 per cent of the electricity used in Dekton’s production comes from renewable sources.

IDS Toronto 2023

by SARA DUCK

For one inspiration-filled weekend in Toronto, the Interior Design Show shines a light on the latest and greatest in design and decor, along with aspirational seminars and talks. This year, the theme was Moving Parts: Design for a complex world. Fitting, right? – if you consider how much our home and work lives have changed post-pandemic. R+D soaked in all the creativity to bring you some of our favourite exhibitors from this year’s show.

Obakki

Founded to merge good design and modern philanthropy, Obakki’s goal is to make a change in the world by improving the quality of life for customers, artisans, and the communities in which they live. To date, it has helped more than 3.5 million people. The founders strive to know the origin of products and the impact of our consumption on the environment, and also on the communities and individuals that create them.

Best booth design

Twelve Oaks, a family-owned company and a leading North American designer and manufacturer of top-quality flooring products, received the award for best booth design. The booth included a large, beautifully lit archway carved from wood, which led to an engaging film about sustainable manufacturing. twelveoaks.ca

Along with a selection of ceramics and homewares, this year at IDS Toronto, Obakki debuted collections from three leaders in contemporary Mexican design: Andrés Guitiérrez, Mariella Motilla and Caralarga. obakki.com

One of the major themes at IDS 2023 was sustainable design. At Cyrc, plastic waste is turned into unique design objects. The company believes we all must be responsible for a product’s life cycle to achieve true sustainability. To this end, Cyrc ensures the materials in its products never end up as waste in a landfill or in the natural environment. cyrcdesign.com

Coolican & Company

A small-batch furniture design company in Toronto, Coolican & Company marries traditional woodworking techniques with contemporary forms. The result is heirloom-quality furniture that can be enjoyed for a lifetime. It uses only native hardwoods and keeps production local. Everything in its collection is designed and made at its studio near downtown Toronto. coolicanandcompany.com

Urban Barn

Urban Barn showcased its new collaboration with Canadian designer Aly Velji. “The 17-piece collection was inspired by my love of travel, and features furniture and decor inspired by faraway places. The collection incorporates unexpected details that bring a sense of adventure to everyday spaces,” explains Velji. Available in stores and online now. urbanbarn.com

Rob Raeside

Glassblower Rob Raeside draws inspiration from classic forms such as spheres, cylinders and cones. For IDS 2023, Raeside tapped into his whimsical side with objects resembling natural forms, such as mushrooms and beehives. robraeside.com

We loved the use of muted colours for this collection.

Cosentino

The Parkside Lounge is made from a sculpted wooden frame and counterbalanced by a textured rope seat and supple leather cushion. The chair is comfortable and elegant, offering plenty of opportunity for a tactile delight.

Previewing for the first time in the Canadian market at IDS, Cosentino’s Dekton Silverkoast collection is inspired by the serene and immense whites of the Pacific, combining California’s most iconic coastline with the beauty of two emblematic marbles: Carrara and Ivory White. The two new white designs are available in either a polished or a velvet finish. Marina, the velvet finish, and Salina, the polished finish, are inspired by the whimsical salt patterns that low tide leaves on the sand and rocks. These delicate white ridges are materialized in an asymmetrical pattern of grey veins on a white base that reinterprets the classic elegance of Carrara marble. cosentino.com

Funhouse

by SARA DUCK • photos KIRSTEN FRANCIS PHOTOGRAPHY

R+D caught up with designer Abby Gruman of Abby Leigh Designs to discover how she created a fun and functional family home with splashes of colour and lots of personality

When designer Abby Gruman set out to create a family home for her clients, one word got her creative juices flowing – fun! It may not seem like a typical design inspiration for someone embarking on a 5,000-sq.-ft home renovation, but for Gruman, the notion of creating a fun yet functional home was the perfect fit for her clients.

Gruman started the whole home renovation with a neutral palette. “By choosing a neutral palette, I was able to add in the whimsical elements my clients craved through pops of colour, patterned wallpaper and fabric, and interesting artwork,” explains Gruman.

Touches of the rainbow can be seen throughout the design of the house. For instance, bright blue is incorporated into the fabric of a

mudroom bench, bubble gum pink accents can be found in the girl’s bedroom, and the base of the kitchen island is painted a rich, satiny purple.

“My clients definitely love colour, and they weren’t afraid to take design risks throughout the home to achieve the vision they had in mind,” says Gruman.

In addition, classic detailing, such as herringbone hardwood floors and an iron and wood staircase, add an interesting juxtaposition to the home’s overall design. “Using fun details in a home doesn’t mean excluding classic elements. It’s about creating a home with balance,” explains Gruman.

She also used black throughout the house to contrast the neutral tones and to add consistency from one room to the next.

When it came to functionality, Gruman kept in mind that her clients

had young children and a pet dog. As a result, family-friendly fabrics and strong materials like wood, marble, and nylon rugs were important when designing this home. “When you have an active household, durability is a must,” advises Gruman.

Reflecting on this ambitious project that took two years, Gruman could not be happier with the outcome. “My clients are thrilled; we collaborated to create a truly unique family home that they can grow into.”

The countertop, backsplash, hood and island are wrapped in the same luxurious stone, anchoring the kitchen and making a bold statement.

A neutral colour palette was used to create a timeless look. The addition of black fixtures and brass hardware add contrast and just the right amount of shine to the space.

Intentional light fixture selections act as a source of illumination and also as decorative statement pieces. Various sources of light were used, from direct to ambient lighting including cove lighting in the ceiling, integrated lighting in the cabinetry, pendants and more.

A wood-clad appliance wall adds warmth and dimension to the kitchen.

Spacious cabinetry was designed to house large appliances and keep things streamlined. A mix of open shelving was also incorporated to create an airy feel and to showcase interesting items such as potted plants and vases.

Dark-toned glass display cabinets were added to break up the wood cabinetry and showcase a stunning wine collection.

A large sink and two faucets were chosen to facilitate large gatherings in the home. The matte black faucets with gold detailing perfectly echo the accent colours.

STAYCATION A Manitoba

by

TREVOR BJARNARSON AND JEFF HALSTEAD • photography by DUALITY PHOTOGRAPHIC

hen our clients came to us with their dream of building a pool house in their back yard, we were excited and honoured to take on this project with them! Though we have completed many outdoor structures and pool houses before, the vision our clients had for theirs was quite intriguing. With Covid unfolding at the time, and

Wvacations seeming less promising, they wanted to transform a dream of their own “Margaritaville” into a reality.

Inspired by many vacations down south, our clients and design team from re:Design Studio worked together to conceptualize how this structure could look and function in our climate.

Many concepts and 3D renderings later, a final design was determined and we went to work! This pool house is an eye-catcher, and one would never believe it is right here in

Manitoba. The structure itself is unique because it contains three different areas, with different functions, while still being connected.

The first space features a full outdoor kitchen with stainless steel cabinetry, a gas barbecue, solid stone countertops, and a bar top with bright swinging chairs all while fully screened in with its motorized retractable screens.

The second space is the heart of the structure.

With its vaulted ceilings and bright painted blue beams, its bold design offers a sense of welcomeness to the structure’s whole. The gas fireplace adds an element of warmth and invites family and friends to gather, whether taking a break from the pool to warm up, watching a game together or simply a place of rest and relaxation.

With a beautiful pergola structure as a transition way from the living area to the final space where there

is a large changing room and outdoor bathroom. By incorporating louvred doors, bright blue siding and beachy light fixtures and decor hand selected by our clients, we were able to make this area mimic elements of a vacation home. The bathroom even includes a urinal!

When taking a walk down the pergola to the back of the structure, an outdoor shower was installed for ease of cleaning off with a direct path

from the pool and close proximity to the changing room.

The best part of this structure? It is built with completely maintenancefree materials — because who has time to clean and upkeep while enjoying a staycation?

This pool house really does have it all. We were thrilled to be able to fulfill our clients’ dreams by building a private oasis in their own backyard which they will enjoy for many summers to come.

Trends

you can expect to see in 2023

We have loved what’s come before in kitchen design: All-white kitchens, open-concept layouts, quartz countertops and minimalist design. But now, for 2023, we are ready to bid adieu to some, if not all of it.

Since the onset of the pandemic, homeowners have been maximizing efficiency in all of their spaces, including the kitchen. It has now become more than a place to prep food — it is also the homework centre, work area and family activities hub. With that has evolved the creation of designated areas within the kitchen.

There has also been an emphasis to connect to the great outdoors. Bold expressions of personality and infusing sustainability go hand-in-hand with timeless, refined features, and even a nod to the not-so-distant past.

This year, kitchens are kicking it up a notch, going all out to maximize functionality, design and personality. Come explore the trends that are taking centre stage in kitchen design.

Tailored prep space and storage

Prioritizing customization and incorporating all the bells and whistles to accommodate evolving needs is

continuing to be popular in kitchen design. Everything from appliance garages to butler pantries, built-in spice racks, state-of-the-art wine closets, and organization and storage solutions are in demand, making this room both a functional and entertaining extravaganza.

The hipstoric kitchen

The hipstoric home – a new term coined by Pinterest that will rule home trends in 2023 – is the art of blending modern accents with historic vintage elements. From incorporating ornate architectural detail such as decorative trim and furniture style toe-kicks, to

farmhouse table islands and styling with antiques and family heirlooms, this trend is infusing character and charm into kitchen spaces. We love the warm, timeless and fresh lived-in approach that it brings.

Cabinetry reimagined

It’s all in the details. As is expected with a maximalist design, kitchen cabinets will benefit from this style. Say ‘goodbye’ to the well-loved plain shaker look and ‘hello’ to chic rattan inlays, reed glass-door detail, engraved detailing, and fluted cabinets. It’s about telling stories in every way in your home, and cabinets will make their statement, too.

Hardware hot spot

They say good things come in small packages. In this case, cabinet hardware might just steal the show. To pair with detailed cabinets, homeowners and design professionals are taking a deep plunge and are selecting ornate hardware to add flair and glamour. If you are going big and bold in all other areas of the kitchen, why not in the accessories?

Stone stunner

Quartz, marble, geoluxe, porcelain or quartzite, design trends are turning up the veins and tones, selecting stones that are unique and uncommon to continue to tell that unique story in your kitchen. From neolith classtone

to quartzite amazonite installed on everything from countertops to backsplashes and islands, this brings an infusion of character and charm in a bold, fresh and architectural way to create elevated and refined spaces in your kitchen.

Bold, tailored and personalized

These are some of the trends ruling the kitchen landscape and it’s exciting to see homeowners design spaces that are whimsical, functional, and curated just for them and their needs.

sweet space A SMALL BUT

In my experience, a kitchen can make or break a home. That’s because when a kitchen doesn’t work for its owners, it becomes the bane of their existence. On the other hand, a great kitchen will be functional, beautiful, and stand the test of time, both from a quality and a trend perspective.

Size is a common complaint when it comes to kitchens that “just don’t work for us.” Maybe the family structure has changed, or their needs have shifted, but for some reason, the size takes the heat. I’m here to tell you that a small kitchen isn’t a setback. It just requires some thoughtful planning.

White, bright and light

This kitchen was, admittedly, tiny. Neutral tones and clean lines dominate the space, wrapping it in light, bright and natural materials and finishes, which help to amplify the light streaming in through a pair of windows flanking the gas stove and range hood.

In order for it to function well for the family that lives there, we borrowed some extra space from the adjacent dining room and created an open combination space to accommodate cooking, dining, living and entertaining.

At its heart, it features an appropriately scaled island, which is the main focus of activity.

by LISA KOOISTRA

The island is finished with a white porcelain countertop, which also lines the rear wall of the space. This material was chosen by the homeowners for its versatility, durability, low maintenance and high visual appeal.

The white island and lower cabinets, white countertops and trending porcelain backsplash are a crisp, refreshing complement to the honeycoloured custom cabinetry and open shelving that warm up all that white and create cohesion throughout.

Everything in its place

Speaking of cabinets and shelves, storage is key in a well-functioning kitchen, regardless of its size. What’s

A great kitchen is functional, beautiful and will stand the test of time from both a quality and trend perspective

pro-tip

In many kitchens, the island acts as the main eating area, so integrated seating is a must. When factoring seating into an island, size matters. It should measure at least three ft. by four ft., with two ft. per place setting. Take into account a countertop overhang of about 15 inches, to be used as a tabletop, with enough room underneath to pull up a seat. Allow a buffer of between 42 and 48 inches around the island for foot traffic.

visible, and equally important, what’s invisible, will impact the look, feel and function of the space. Having some select pieces on display can enhance a kitchen’s function, create visual interest and add warmth, a critical addition to a family-focussed room.

This kitchen was designed with the family’s lifestyle and organizational style in mind, with a mix of hidden storage in the form of closed cabinets, balanced with some open shelving for featured items. Glass-enclosed cabinets are constructed of white oak with black-toned trim, with integrated

lighting that transforms this storage system into an artistic display.

Stylish finish

While practicality takes precedence in a small but busy space, style is never far behind. As any good designer will attest, you can have it all. The look of this small kitchen was enhanced with elegant, gold-toned hardware and plumbing, which is warm and subtle, with just the right measure of good taste.

As you can see, you really can have it all – and even a small kitchen can surpass all expectations.

An iridescent visual rhythm

Spectre is a study that investigates the reactions of light on different glaze applications. After many tests in the ceramics field, Euro Tile & Stone found the holographic finish capable of drawing the light spectrum. Thus, hologram was born, a glossy surface that takes on different colours with the changing of the light. Each colour has both a matte and glossy surface and is offered in a mix completed by a holographic finish that creates an iridescent visual rhythm and redefines contemporary surfaces.

On the following pages, readers will be able to see pictures and descriptions of the projects that have been entered in this years’ showcase. Entries are featured in seven different categories – Additions, Kitchens, Bathrooms, Whole House, Outdoor Structures, Exteriors and Basement. As one can see from the entrants appearing in this magazine, each project is spectacular.

We are featuring 88 different projects by 15 outstanding MHBA RenoMark renovators; renovators who follow the highest professional standards in Canada. These projects will undoubtedly provide you with the direction you need to better pursue your renovation or, at the very least, start you thinking about what you could be doing to upgrade your home. This issue of home décor and renovations is always very popular because readers see what has been done in other houses and then develop ideas of what could be in their home. These are real projects completed by professional renovators in homes in nearby neighbourhoods.

Over the past few years, we have all had to spend much more time in our homes. This has led to home owners thinking about changes they could or should make around the house. Everybody has something that they

by LANNY MCINNES

have been longing to improve in their kitchen. Bathrooms are being updated and modernized for comfort and practicality on a regular basis. Many of us love our neighbourhood and love our house, but we also need change. Colours and styles from 10 years ago need a refresh. Basements can be more functional and provide more living space. Cooking becomes more of a chore in a room that stifles creativity and innovation. An addition is like creating a whole new living space; a whole new lifestyle for your family without the hassles associated with moving. The award nominated renovation projects featured in this edition can provide a great example of what you can do to make your own home more functional and livable.

If you’re considering a renovation, look to the standards and practices of a professional RenoMark renovator.

Feet inches: THE UNITS OF INTERIOR DESIGN AND

by CLARICE TO

orking with an Interior Designer can be an exciting experience. Some clients will have a vision of that perfect space that captures their style and personality. Others may have a sense of what they like but aren’t too sure if that vision is the right decision or not.

A qualified interior designer can turn your dream space into reality by providing guidance with the planning process, setting a realistic budget, scheduling, open and honest communication, and most importantly the willingness to

Wembrace alternate creative strategies. Design development and construction processes are areas clients tend to have a limited knowledge of until they have completed a project from start to finish.

Design follows a structured approach. It comprises of combing research, spatial analysis, design principles and theory into a creative process that allows Interior Designers to meet the needs of our clients in a fresh and innovative way.

Our first date

Our first meeting with a client is always exciting! This is where

our relationship starts. We begin to learn about you, your lifestyle, expectations, needs, and dreams. This meeting can be lengthy and may run between an hour and a half to three hours, depending on the project.

The floor planputting pen to paper

From our site measurements, we draw an “As Built Floor Plan” (an accurate, scaled drawing of your space as it exists today). We identify plumbing, mechanical, electrical and structural elements that need to be considered in the design.

Concept plans –transformation time

We consider this plan the bones of our project. This is where we input all the information from our first meeting into a working and cohesive space. We strive to provide a couple of concept plans for discussion. We review the concept plans with you and discuss the ideas we have begun to develop. At this stage, your feedback is important! Are we on the right track or do we need to revise the plans? If there is anything else you would like to add, please let us know so we can plan for it in our design.

At this time, we encourage you to begin to consider your appliances and electronic equipment like TVs, fireplaces, etc. These items will affect the overall design and will minimize revisions later on.

After our discussion, we make any revisions that we have discussed. We may go back and forth several times until your expectations are met.

Lighting

Now that the floor plan is complete, we can finalize lighting placement and locations. We create a layout that suits your needs and lifestyle. The types of lighting, style, location, and location of switches and important electrical outlets are all noted and adds another layer to the overall vision.

Defining details

Our next step will identify areas of your project where customization will occur. The outcome will show you what your cabinets, or other one of a kind detail will look like. These plans will indicate lots of details like materials, hardware, dimensions, etc – all of which will help determine pricing and construction.

Material selection

While we think about materials and finishes from the beginning, it is at this point that we dig deeper and research ideas and material processes that encompass the overall look of your space. We ensure that the materials are appropriate to the function and space and complements the lighting and plumbing fixtures. We love to challenge materials and use them in unconventional ways, so the more we know about a finish the more creative we can be to give you something completely new!

Time for construction

Changes on-site can occur, but the more time you invest before construction, the less it will cost you during the renovation process. However, unexpected situations like site conditions, extended product delivery times that affect the schedule, budget overruns, are a few examples of the twists and turns that can take place during the construction phase. Be proactive, ask questions and collaborate with your team. The more information you have, the better the result. Kick off meetings, site inspections and designer/contractor updates help maintain the integrity of the product you have invested in. At the end of the day, your designer, contractor and most importantly you all want to feel proud of the final product!

The first meeting usually entails:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

Determining the project scope – Is it a renovation, new build, addition, updating finishes, lighting, or furniture selection?

Programming – Prioritized list of what you need, want and expect.

Concept Development – Defining the overall strategy and vision. If you have inspirational photos that you like, show us! This helps to give us a clear vision of your taste.

Site Measurements & Analysis – We need to record the existing space as is. We sketch, measure, photograph, and take inventory of appliances and furniture that will remain and is critical to the project. This allows us to plan the new design accurately.

Are you looking to work with a contractor, do the work yourself, or collaborate? Let us know.

Schedule – what date would you like your project to be completed? By knowing this upfront, we can work with you and your builder to develop a schedule to keep your project on schedule.
