Most of the flooring is Mirage engineered hardwood in a natural tone, and just beyond the oversized fridge and built-in wine cabinet, the walk-through pantry has thick, solid-oak shelving, with pocket doors open to the kitchen and the mudroom. Rob Swan, who founded the company with his brother Sheldon 35 years ago, points out a handful of his favourite features, such as the “modern-rustic” barnwood that adorns walls in the primary bedroom and on the twin entertainment centres. Along with floating cabinets in soft grey, standout features in the entertainment units include wide black fireplace surrounds — another strong element that appears in a smaller scale on exterior window frames.
THE KITCHEN’S CLEAN, MINIMALIST VIBE HAS
MAXIMUM APPEAL, WITH A MIX OF HORIZONTAL RIFT OAK CABINETS AND SOFT GREY TOUCH-LATCH UPPERS.
