A Modern Space to Entertain in Varsity

Why they came

This Varsity Estates home in Calgary, Alberta had great bones. It meant so much to our client as they purchased it from their grandparent. It showed its age with dark, closed-off rooms, a dated brick fireplace and light fixtures. This young couple liked to cook together and entertain family and friends and needed a modern space.

Utilizing a holistic hygge approach, we tackled their modern space wish list!
