Roomy and CBC's The Steven and Chris Show

Roomy Home Interiors is being featured on CBC’s The Steven and Chris Show this month to share their expertise on condo living. For the past six years, Roomy has been a leader in their industry, always searching for and developing new and creative ways to maximize their clients’ homes. Roomy recently worked on a condo redesign that is a perfect example of modern sophistication, style, and of course, multi functionality.

Corinne LaFlamme, Senior Designer at Roomy recalls, “… [our] client presented us with a challenge for his 849 square foot one bedroom plus den condo: to turn his den into a space he will actually use and enjoy spending time in.”

Like many condos today, this project had an open concept living and dining room. This type of layout is fantastic for entertaining and can make your home feel larger, but it does present some interesting challenges too. Roomy wanted to ensure that the main living area felt open, but also that it had defined zones that could be intimate and cozy when being used.

The living area is defined by the placement of the media centre and the sectional placed opposite of it. A wool area rug adds another texture to the condo while further defining this zone. The custom chrome and glass coffee table and sofa table are “one of a kind” pieces from Roomy that add sparkle to the space. The custom media centre is a strong focal point that provides “… plenty of storage and display space for his collections.” Track lighting was installed in the living area for optimal lighting and to highlight key features.

The structural columns in this condo add architectural interest and help to define the dining area. The modern, dark wood dining table is surrounded by six high back dining chairs that have been custom upholstered. The five pendant chandelier over the table adds sparkle to the room and ties in the metal accents found throughout.

Roomy furnished her clients bedroom with a queen bed and a custom upholstered headboard. The headboard has tufting detail, adding depth to the piece and creating a plush and luxurious backdrop for this room. Custom, two drawer nightstands add storage to this room while the custom dresser creates a perfect vignette for a 42” plasma television. All of Roomy’s custom furniture pieces are eco friendly, made with Canadian woods and finished with water based stains.

LaFlamme recalls, “We wanted to spend some extra time and effort to not only meet [our clients] challenge, but to exceed it.” The den was transformed into a multi functional lounge and bar area. A sectional that can be divided up and used as separate chairs was specified in this room. A custom bar and display unit was designed to sit next to an electric fireplace, resulting in a den that is warm, inviting and completely custom.
