There’s a lot of reasons people get attached to something they’ve created. Sometimes it’s pride in the finished project, the amount of time invested in it, or that it feels like a representation of the artist. At the Ravine House it was a combination of all three for Ali Budd. Her and her team had been tirelessly working on this 8-year-build and now it was coming to fruition. After being given free reign on the design of this renovation, Ali was determined to create an unforgettable home no matter what it took. Now, you get to decide if this 8-year-build lives up. Spoiler: it does.

Youthful Design
When making a luxe home, the level of design needs to continue through all the rooms while still suiting the room’s purpose. However, since this was a family with three young boys, she needed to create designs that would appeal to them. This was easier said than done, as she didn’t want something that they would soon grow and mature out of. So, to do this and have a sense of cohesion between the three rooms, she used repeating themes. Funky patterned wallpaper allowed each boy to showcase their personality while giving them an easy way to change their aesthetics in the future.

Mature Opulence
Common spaces in the home were far less personalized. Instead, they were meant to wow and create a sense of luxury while still being functional. Nowhere was this better showcased than the kitchen. Crisp white high-end materials throughout created the perfect backdrop for stunning feature materials. This contrast allowed the brass rangehood and stunning backsplash to be center stage. The Ravine House is finally finished, after an 8-year-build, and ready to wow.
