Kitchen Must-Haves

Your investment in your Markham kitchen will result in a space that works as you always wished. You deserve a kitchen that elevates your culinary experience.

Custom Cabinets

Custom cabinets are an essential part of your kitchen renovation. Beyond the opportunity to showcase your style with glass cabinet doors, ample craftsman details, or the perfect shade of trendy blue or green, cabinets need to offer excellent storage and function. Custom cabinets provide personalized pullouts, the ideal layout, and ample storage for everything you plan to tuck away to keep your countertops clear.

Gorgeous Countertops

You have more options than ever for durable and fantastic countertops. Statement butcher block, live edge wood, marble, quartz, quartzite, and manufactured materials are all excellent options to crown your custom cabinets with the ultimate finish for a cohesive kitchen.

Appliances as Art

Feature your high-end appliances like La Cornue, Thermador, Wolf, Cove, and Sub Zero as focal points, or tuck them away behind custom cabinetry for a seamless look.  Add a copper range hood or mosaic tile above the range to highlight your investment.

Luxe Kitchen Island 

Many complete kitchen renovations require updates to your kitchen layout. Move your kitchen island so that your workflow makes sense for your family. Add a second kitchen island so that each performs a unique function. A prep station with a sink doesn’t have to do double duty with your homework and command centre or island seating. You can build them both.

Primary Suite Features to Include

Luxury details belong in the primary suite because a homeowner uses them every day. Ensure the primary suite supports your daily routine.

A Wondrous Walk-in Closet

Your closest needs built-ins for your wardrobe and the items you plan to store. Consider speakers, smart devices, voice-controlled lighting, and heated floors to provide ultimate comfort during your morning routine.

Clerestory Windows

Clerestory windows are long, narrow windows mounted near the ceiling to provide natural light and preserve privacy. They are the perfect feature to prevent your primary suite or walk-in closet from feeling like a cave.

A Multi-Use Suite

Add an extra area to your primary suite, so your personal space suits your needs. Do you need a reading nook? A cozy conversation space? Would tucking your home office into your primary suite add an extra layer of privacy while you work?

Bathroom Renovation Features for The Perfect Morning

Your bathroom is a great place for luxury features that make mornings a breeze. Here are some elements to consider to maximize your comfort and enjoyment.

A Wet Room

Barrier-free showers are great features if you plan to age in place in your forever home. Add a zero-threshold shower and create a large area that is built to get wet. You can even include a freestanding tub to offer easy options.

Smart Tech for Ultimate Personalization

Add Bluetooth speakers, screens, a remote-activated shower, smart mirrors and toilets, and more to ensure a completely comfortable and luxurious routine. Include appliances like towel warmers and a mini-fridge for drinks and cosmetics to take your bathroom to the next level.

Modernize Your Home for Entertaining

Some luxury features are built to show off. If you’re planning to host gatherings in your new home, consider adding the following elements to wow your guests.

Ceilings with Intrigue

Large hewn ceiling beams lend rustic vintage credibility and visual interest to any space. Our designers recommend updating a stippled ceiling with shiplap for a modern, timeless vibe that adds texture and warmth from above.

Bring the Outside in

Add windows, light, and easy access to outdoor living spaces to impress your guests with your airy entertaining space.

Glass and Garage Doors-Add glass doors or retractable garage doors leading to your outdoor spaces to blend the indoors and outdoors and expand your entertaining area.

Sun Tunnels and Skylights- Incorporate sunny pass-throughs, skylights, and four seasons rooms to give your guests delightful spaces to gather.

Outdoor Living Spaces- Add seating, grills, pizza ovens, dining spaces, prep space, and more with outdoor living areas to elevate summer entertaining.
