{ Dreaming + Planning } Industrial, Framhouse, Craftsman, Reclaimed!

yep, I’m still here!

Every day I can be heard asking,“is it June yet?”
I graduate on June 11th. 

Here is what I’ve been dreaming of these days:

Industrial. Farmhouse. Craftsman. Reclaimed.

Can they co-exist peacefully?

I think it’s possible!

I love beadboard ceilings. What better way to cover up the horrid textured ceiling without having to grind it all off upside down for hours upon hours?

 

Anyone know where this image is from?
This floor is similar to the Premier Garage floor I blogged about here. Also, I’m in love with industrial style pendant lamp.

 

This image is forever stored on my computer. I also have the publication from Better Homes and Gardens where it was featured. This reclaimed mantel is exactly what I want in my house. I foresee multiple trips to Demxx in coombs…

 


I love this exterior by this renovation company in Washington. Our home could definitely look like this with a little assistance!

Alright – back to work for me!

{ Art Trumps All } Project Update

Although it’s hard for us to believe, we are only into week 4 of actual construction to Sunrise Veterinary Clinic at 800 Shamrock Place in Comox.  We’re really putting all this Design-Build stuff to the test – even in this small-scale renovation – and finding that it’s a perfect match for our personalities and skill-set. Design-Build is fast… really fast!

Thank you all for voting on your favourite colour schemes and for providing your comments. In the end, it was your comments, our clients needs/wants, and our own ideas that helped solidify the final colour selections and over-all feel of the space.

But the real thing that brought the design together wasn’t a person at all – it was ART.

Art trumps all.

I’ve mentioned before that I feel that art has a “love” emotion strongly attached to it.

 

When we first saw the art we’ve chosen for this space we allknew that it was the right choice. It embodies the feeling we want to achieve with the space, and it also suites the personalities of Dr. Tammi Whelan and Dr. Stacey Gastis perfectly.  

Here’s another sneek-peek into the design concept. I have kept the final art slection a secret for now because I feel it is deserving of a spotlight in the official reveal. Plus, we don’t want to give everything away!
