warm/cool mix
Our Lake View clients not only wanted to update their ensuite, they wanted to create a space that functioned well for them. We turned this space on its side and embraced every square inch.
What was once the walk-in closet, is now the ensuite. We flipped the two spaces and relocated the toilet, creating a water closet with a pocket door.
A peek into the process
A freestanding tub and shower were a must. Due to the allotted space we combined the two into a wet room. This space is centrally located in the ensuite, which in turn creates a corridor for the new closet and makeup area.
The previous ensuite became the closet. Floor to ceiling, wall to wall millwork fills the space. The closet also houses a small makeup vanity.
Savvy space planning, and creativity with material selections has given this space a new lease on life, and our clients a welcome retreat to start and end each day.

Transformation Highlights
This lakeside Calgary renovation reimagines the primary ensuite — turning the layout on its side to embrace every square inch while introducing a new aesthetic rooted in storage, function, and ease.
layout
What was once the walk-in closet, is now the ensuite. We flipped the two spaces and also relocated the toilet, creating a water closet with a pocket door to avoid door swings in a small space. This left enough room for a double vanity in closer proximity to natural light.
inspiration
A nod to the prairies and a celebration of their lake views within the city inspired the colour palette of golden hues, cool blues and warm wood.
challenges
A freestanding tub and shower were a must, and with space at a premium we combined the two into a wet room. This space is centrally located in the ensuite, which in turn creates a corridor for the new closet and makeup area.
