Contemporary Home Transformation
This full Kemptville home renovation, designed and built by Cindy and Gilbert Lutes of Total Home, brought the kitchen, dining room, living room, and a new sun-room addition together into one cohesive main floor living space.
The project focused on opening the layout, improving natural light, and creating a warm, modern flow throughout the home, balancing clean lines with subtle mid-century influence.
The result is a beautifully elevated and timeless interior designed for everyday living.
Kemptivlle Family Bathroom Renovation
This Kemptville family bathroom renovation, designed and built by Cindy and Gilbert Lutes of Total Home, was part of a full two-bathroom transformation completed for the same home – see our Kemptville En-Suite Bathroom Renovation.
With a focus on light, flow, and family-friendly functionality, the redesign brought modern simplicity and a timeless palette to a compact space — proving that even small bathrooms can make a big design impact.
Crisp White EN-Suite Bathroom Renovation | Kemptville
As part of a dual bathroom renovation for this Kemptville home, the ensuite was thoughtfully reconfigured to improve comfort, storage, and everyday function.
By incorporating adjacent closet space into the layout, the new design created room for a custom double vanity and a spacious glass shower, transforming a modest footprint into a calm, spa-inspired retreat finished in soft neutrals and timeless materials.
SOOTHING LUXE EN-SUITE
Our clients had an EN-Suite already, however, it was quite dated so definitely time for a makeover. It housed a large corner tub, toilet and a stand-up shower stall. The shower stall was quite small and was originally an insert. It wasn’t very functional or comfortable to use.
In this bathrooom design and construction, we recreated a new floor plan to add a free-standing tub, a larger shower area and larger vanity.
Fireplace Facelift & Main Floor Design
When the client saw how much of an impact the new fireplace design and floor refinishing had on their home, they decided to expand the project to the other areas on the main floor.
The before and after of this project truly shows how drastic a difference a little imagination and creative Interior Design style can make on the look of your home’s interior, and the way you ‘feel’ living in your home.
Stylish Kitchen Redesign
Our clients wanted an updated look to their kitchen without having to replace all of the cabinetry. While keeping the existing cabinets, in this kitchen design and construction we were still quite successful in bringing the original kitchen up to date with some new fixtures and finishes.
Compact Function – Family Bathroom
In this project, we truly needed to get creative and stretch our imaginations to provide the details that were on our clients wish list. This was a very small bathroom in a very small war time house, so there was no room to expand the footprint. We had to work within the parameters of the space for this small bathroom renovation but still provide adequate storage for their young family.
