with typical back to school gusto - i am fi-na-leee revisiting some project photos that have been sitting by the wayside through the always active spring and summer months?! something about the crispness in the air and turning of the leaves (yes *sigh*, already!) make the annual event of "back to school" something that has never left me, even after i left school myself?! i've always enjoyed this time of year - bringing with it a return to ritual, where we all collectively "get back to it" and "hunker down for the year ahead"?!

so without further ado; let's do this :)

returning to killarney first, i present the other half of our modern day duplex... located in a desirable inner city neighborhood, this side of the project was strictly designed and staged to sell; funky fixtures and a clean aesthetic create an easy and accessible modern style for potential buyers...! combined with the quality finishing and workmanship of our talented team of architects and builders - it's no wonder this unit was but a flash on the market ;)

welcome to killarney, part II

you know how they say... two halves make a whole? peas and carrots? yin and yang...? here in calgary, the urban development equivalent may well be: infills. increasingly popular, they create density on desirable (and larger!) inner city lots, replacing the often small and dated single family homes that once resided there. they have become our modern day duplex!

this infill project - completed with a a talented team of architects and builders - is located in killarney... and is the first half of this design duo! filled with warm woods and a classic palette of black, white, and shades of grey; then layered with fresh and fun fixtures throughout... this side holds it's own - and presents itself with a more classic appeal - creating a perfect counterpoint to it's sister half (the funkier of the duo) - due to be complete in the coming weeks.

for now, welcome to the first, the peas, the yin if you will... or... let's go with killarney, part I ;)
