Willingdon House

Another beautiful modern home in Ottawa! This one was redesigned by a London design firm and had a lot of unique luxury features, as stated in the listing. I love the closed in courtyard!

There are so many interesting design details such as the triangular windows, the glass railing and the rectangular track lighting. The beautiful walnut floor is heated. I like how the kitchen is almost invisible and blends in the open space. The "kitchen tower" which seems to house the ovens, looks like a fireplace. The furniture is light and fun.

I love the symmetry of this lounge and how the area rug relates to the walnut floor.

The playroom looks amazing. A proof that modern can also be kid friendly without primary colors all over the place. There's lot of room to play here!

Notice the wall sconces on the blue wall going over the table and along the bottom of the baseboard. This must look interesting at night.

I love the design in the kid bedroom too. It's kid friendly and modern. Notice the glass box shelves on the wall and the funky red floor lamp.

  1. beautiful pics here....and these rugs are also looking gorgeous but some thing keep in mind at the time of purchasing rugs...choose a cotton and wool blend fabric that are more durable than cotton, but still less expensive...and easy to clean...

  2. You're right the rugs are pretty cool. I like how the black and white round rug on the 5th picture imitates that round lamp in the back.

  3. Cool!!! I LOVE the walnut floors. We installed walnut flooring in our loft -- the variation in colour and graining is just gorgeous.

    I really like that low lighting in the dining room. Too bad there isn't a night shot of the room to really show them off.

    The staircase with the glass railing is great. It makes the the stairs blend in seamlessly and doesn't obstruct the views through the house at all.

    I could live here :-)

  4. Yeah, you're right. The mood must be quite dramatic in the dining room with the low lighting.
