Swipe to see what a dining room really looks like before it becomes a dining room.
Before the lighting is centered. Before the millwork is layered in. Before the table feels inevitable.
Every space moves through phases, concept, construction, refinement. There are drawings pinned to walls. Samples stacked in corners. Decisions tested and re-tested.
The finished room may feel effortless, but the path to get there never is.
We believe the strength of a space is built long before the furniture arrives.
Because design isn’t decoration. It’s direction.

Flowers are never an afterthought here.
Long before they land in a vase, they’ve been considered. in colour, in movement, in season.
Kelly has always been a gardener at heart. There’s something grounding about tending to what grows slowly. Watching how light hits a petal. Understanding when to cut, and when to let something spill.
That same instinct carries into our interiors.
A bouquet softens architecture. It introduces movement where everything else is still. It reminds a home that it’s meant to be lived in, not just admired.
Behind every arrangement is intention. Behind the beauty is rhythm, restraint, and a little bit of wild.
The powder room is often the smallest room in the house — and the most revealing.
It is where we amplify the energy of the home and allow it to become fully self-expressed.
Not louder. Deeper.
Because when a guest steps inside and closes the door, they experience the atmosphere without distraction.
And that moment matters.

Not every room in a Tudor home should carry weight.
As you move upward through this house, the palette softens intentionally. The principal bedroom was designed as a place of respite, a gentle exhale after the richness of the main floor.
The ceiling detailing was inspired by a historic Shaughnessy home we documented years ago. We regularly study Vancouver’s heritage architecture, building our own archive so new construction feels authentic to its setting.
Arts and Crafts wallpaper and an exquisite rug quietly echo that lineage. In the bath, divided light glazing offers a restrained nod to conservatory architecture, repeated elsewhere for continuity.
Restorative. Rooted. Intentional.

From our very first conversation, the client was clear, this would not be a quiet home.
The Calacatta Viola was chosen precisely because it refuses to disappear. Its movement brings energy and depth to the room.
The island is finished in a deep oxblood, subtly echoing the brick red silk in the dining room beyond. The hood, clad in mixed copper and brass, was designed to read as a hearth, a focal point with presence, not simply an appliance surround.
Traditional architecture expressed with conviction.

This office was never meant to feel spare.
It was designed as a room to sink into, layered, enveloping, and quietly powerful.
The oak millwork anchors the space, but it took weeks to arrive at the right stain. We tested and adjusted repeatedly until the tone felt grounded, warm without reading red and rich without feeling heavy. The back of the shelving is finished in a forest green lacquer, creating depth and shadow behind books and collected objects.
Every moulding profile was studied alongside the finishing carpenters. Mock ups guided us. Proportion mattered.
A mid century piece introduces tension within the Tudor envelope, bringing a subtle contrast that keeps the room from feeling predictable.
Layered. Intentional. Crafted.

If you are going to see a space every single day, it should feel intentional.
This cloakroom holds boots, umbrellas, dogs, and daily life, so we gave it depth.
Custom millwork in a saturated blue-green, heritage textiles, and layered pattern create a room that feels
permanent rather than transitional.
Utility does not require neutrality.
In fact, the most hardworking rooms often deserve the most character.
We’re honoured that Homes & Gardens included Shaughnessy Manor in their recent feature.

Tudor Revival homes can easily slip into heaviness.
In this room, we chose depth instead of density, anchoring the space in what we believe is the perfect deep blue, then softening it with neutral drapery that allows the architecture to breathe.
Artfulness was essential. Iris 3, an acrylic on canvas by Hans Sieverding from Odon Wagner Gallery, introduces a contemporary tension that keeps tradition from feeling predictable.
Even the rug tells a story. Its subtle Japanese motif is a quiet nod to one homeowner’s heritage, a reminder that estate homes should reflect personal narrative, not just architectural style.
Layered. Considered. Unexpected.
We are honoured to see Shaughnessy Manor featured in Homes & Gardens.

Small but mighty.
This butler’s kitchen carries a quiet romance. Wallpaper wraps the walls and ceiling, allowing pattern to soften the edges and transform a hardworking space into something immersive.
The millwork is finished in a saturated sage that feels storied rather than trendy, warmed by brass and marble. Beneath it all, a treasured antique rug grounds the room, a reminder that even utilitarian spaces deserve history underfoot.
We believe the most functional rooms should be beautiful enough to linger in.

Pierre was impossible to ignore.
He began on the last page of an old document —
torn, stained, and nearly forgotten.
The kind of page most people would pass over.
We couldn’t.
There was something in it that felt alive.
Enough to build a pattern from,
enough to carry forward.
Printed on linen netting, Pierre holds that history close —
textured, expressive, and quietly confident.
Of all the patterns in the collection,
this is the one I’m most in love with.
And the one I can’t wait to use in my own interiors.
You’ll find Pierre — and the rest of the collection —
now live at odettehome.com.

Odette was built on a particular kind of romance —
the slow, considered kind that begins with curiosity
and often starts somewhere far from home.
A walk through Paris.
A detail noticed in passing.
A pattern that lingers longer than expected.
What began as fascination with history and place
became commitment, devotion,
and eventually a brand that felt impossible not to make.
If you’re curious how our new wallpaper brand Odette came to be,
the full story is waiting on our blog The Dispatch.

Today feels meaningful.
After years of creating homes with soul and stories,
we’re opening the doors to Odette—
a project so close to my heart it feels almost personal to share.
Designers and clients have asked for years
whether we might one day build a brand of our own.
Today, we finally get to say yes.
Odette Wallpaper is a love letter to pattern,
to history,
and to the quiet delight of things made beautifully.
If you’d like to take a first look,
you’re warmly invited in.
We’ve been waiting to welcome you.
The collection is now live at odettehome.com.
