This renovation tells the story of a
thoughtful transformation, turning a
closed-off rear yard into a bright,
functional extension of the home.
By replacing a kitchen window with
a full-view door and adding dining
room windows, the main floor now
glows with natural light and flows
effortlessly into a new screened-in porch.

With skylights, timber accents (maintaining the home’s 1931 architecture), and low-maintenance materials, the porch offers a bug-free retreat for everyday living. Inside, a
refreshed kitchen layout, custom millwork
and refined finishes enhance functionality
and warmth, while preserving the home’s
original charm and perfecting the art of
living for the homeowners.

A Total Home Transformation

War Home Transformation
Ottawa Centre

amsted.ca

This renovation is a total reinvention of an older Westboro house. By bringing in more light, optimizing the layout and embracing bold, contemporary design, a long-overlooked structure has been transformed inside and out into a stylish, future-ready gem with spaces thoughtfully reimagined to better suit the homeowners’ lifestyle and make the most of a narrow footprint.

Among the changes, the main floor layout was reworked to create open-concept sightlines, a powder room, ensuite and laundry were added (upgrading the
home from one to three bathrooms), upstairs bedrooms were reduced from three to two to create space for a walk-in closet, the ensuite and the laundry, and a mudroom-style back entry was created within a compact addition to add everyday function while respecting sight constraints.

This project is a great example of how older homes have tremendous potential and can be reimagined for modern needs.

A Reimagined Layout

A Reimagined Layout
Kanata

artiumdesignbuild.com

An outdated 20-year-old kitchen was transformed
into a luxurious, functional and expansive space.
Widening the galley kitchen's opening to the front
of the home created a better connection to the
refreshed entryway. While a full open concept
possible due to a load-bearing wall, larger doorways
were achieved by reconfiguring building systems within
an angled wall, making for a more welcoming kitchen entrance.

The opening at the back of the house was expanded,
allowing for a large peninsula that seats four, removing
the need for a dining table, which also allowed for full height
pantry cabinetry and a built-in storage bench under the window.
Custom white oak veneer open shelving, herringbone backsplash
tiles, champagne bronze fixtures and a white silgranit (a granite
composite) sink replaced dated features.

Hardwood flooring unified the main floor. The living room
fireplace was modernized, and a custom bar was added to the
living room for entertaining. Each element works together to
bring this from a lacklustre main floor to a modern, functional
space to please the homeowners for years to come.

Energy Efficient Design

Energy Efficient Design
North Gower

This is more than just a renovation — it’s a complete reinvention. Guided by principles of durability, health and energy efficiency, the home was stripped to its bones and rebuilt to exceed modern performance standards.
Behind the sleek finishes lies a “Perfect Wall” assembly with four control layers, a fully excavated, waterproofed and insulated foundation, a “hot” double roof system,
continuous exterior insulation, triple-glazed windows, fully electrified HVAC system and more — all to maximize comfort and energy efficiency.

Registered with NRCan as a Net Zero Ready Renovation case study, this home is both a showcase of sustainable design and a move-in-ready opportunity for the discerning
buyer (construction is nearing completion).

Experience this transformation up close: Feel the difference in air quality, hear the quiet and see the details that make this home built
to last for generations.
