It's the first week of the school holidays so I am taking things down a notch on the work front to spend time with my boys. While the styling projects are on hold, I'm still hoping to blog most days, but please forgive me if I miss a day here or there! Now for today's inspiring home...

Located at the base of Grouse Mountain, the 1950s property has been transformed into a modern day retreat by Vancouver based architects Scott & Scott. Bringing it in to the 21st century, they have respectfully preserved its historical charm while also celebrating its wonderful connection to nature.

I love the openness and simplicity of this home. The neutral palette and mix of Douglas fir beams and concrete floors is such a winning combination. As are the iconic Hans Wegner Wishbone Chair and CH25 Armchair paired with cosy warm throws. Simple open shelving in the kitchen gives a laid back feel, while the the huge marble slab benchtop is very much the hero piece. I also love the simple room divider made of plywood storage cabinets.
