A large black and white kitchen with wood beams in the ceiling and additional windows above the stove area.

Create your own personalized kitchen (Studio ALC)

October 29, 2026 in Interiors

Studio ALC worked closely with the homeowner to create a kitchen that was personalized to their lifestyle. What works for one family may not work for another so it was important to the homeowners that this key space was designed for their needs.

From the large island to the additional windows to allow for more natural light, these are details that make this a unique and custom kitchen.

A kitchen with more than just a beautiful design

Colour and neutral kitchen: Alair Toronto

October 14, 2026 in Interiors

One way to keep your countertop appliances at a convenient spot, but hidden is to create a dedicated place for them with a door, also known as an appliance garage. Instead of scattering them throughout the kitchen wherever theyโ€™ll fit, an appliance garage keeps them all together so youโ€™ll always know where they are. Then they all go back to where they belong.

The Kwendy Home x Magenta Inc. collection

The Kwendy Home x Magenta Inc:

October 05, 2026 in Commercial, Lifestyle

If youโ€™re into home decor and renos, DIY projects, recipes, and houseware, you may have seen Wendyโ€™s videos. Sheโ€™s the creator of The Kwendy Home and partnered with Magenta Inc. to design her line of mugs and houseware.

We photographed this lifestyle series of Wendy with her collection in her home that sheโ€™s decorated from the ground up and is known for on Instagram and TikTok. She styled each scene according to the season or holiday for each set and we made sure to create images for every product to be used across different marketing channels like web, social, and email.

All the look and feel of the images reflect Wendyโ€™s style and personality: a warm welcome into her home and world.

Shop the collection and pick up your own fun seasonal mugs

Foyer in a home with a floor to ceiling closet, drawers, hooks on the wall and a built-in bench

Open foyer: Alair Homes Toronto

September 21, 2026 in Interiors

A dedicated, functional foyer can be hard to find in the city, especially in older homes. This entryway went from a small space to an open and spacious place to come home to or welcome guests.

With a large area, coat closet, drawers, hooks and a bench, thereโ€™s plenty of room for everyone to get ready to go out or return home.

Build: Alair Homes Toronto
Interior designer: Brian McCourt Designs

Foyer in a home with hooks on the wall and a built-in bench. A purse sits on the bench and a jean jacket hangs on one of the wall hooks.
