Contemporary decor means clean lines, minimalist design, simple sophistication, and matte and brushed finishes. Perfect for those who like an industrial, urban look, valuing design above all else. This kitchen reno was for clients who love to cook and entertain. The space had to be incredibly functional, with a lot of work and storage space. The clients also wanted to incorporate some rather surprising elements, like a beer tap and a large walk-in wine cellar.
Those who like to entertain understand: cooking is more fun when you’re part of the party. That’s why we set up seating around the work area. The house already had lovely rough wood beams; we made sure to integrate them into the decor. The result? A contemporary kitchen marrying high-quality materials, like maple and black marbled granite, with lacquered finishes that reflect light and add a polished look. – Designer: Alexandre Paquin
