10th St Project, North Vancouver
Location: North Vancouver, BC
Project Scope:
This dated 1980s home on the beautiful North Shore of Vancouver was in need of a refresh. Our clients reached out to us to work on their entryway, dining room, and living room.
The entryway was originally flanked by walls with window-like holes. We filled these to define each space, furnish appropriately and add much-needed storage for this busy family. We added custom storage with a small bench to conveniently stash jackets and shoes. Opposite the closet, we partially filled the wall hole to create the perfect area to display a mirror.
In the dining room, our clients wanted to keep their existing dining table and chairs. So, we refreshed every other piece to elevate the space, while keeping it casual to fit their lifestyle.
Our clients have a large living room where they recently added a sectional, rug, and coffee table. We were called in to help with the finishing touches. We added a large piece of art, a textural table lamp, and a wood sideboard with styling pieces. We also added a mirror above the fireplace to bounce the light from the opposite sliding glass doors. To complete the space, we created a cozy corner using their existing leather accent chair; inviting our homeowners to cuddle up with a good book and tea.
Though they wondered if filling the walls would make their home feel smaller, our clients trusted our vision and the process. Ultimately, doing this did the opposite. By defining each room, their home instantly felt larger and they are so happy with the end result.

“I reached out to Ariane Design Co. to help refresh our dining room and entryway areas and they knocked it out of the park!
Ariane approached the project in a thoughtful way and wanted to ensure that the spaces would be functional as well as look and feel ‘like us.’ They put together incredible options for us and I cannot WAIT to see the one we chose come together.
From start to finish it has been a complete joy to have ADC design our spaces and I look forward to working on additional spaces in our home once the current project is complete!”
