Open main floor (part 2): Living room with vaulted ceiling and new skylights (Studio ALC)

August 04, 2024 in Interiors

Continuing this main floor remodel series, Studio ALC added skylights and opened up the ceiling to create a taller, vaulted ceiling. This allows natural light to stream in from both the existing bay window and the skylights. The home didn’t get much light before, but now it’s bright and open throughout the day.

Went on a 🟡💛⭐️🟨 colour hunt in Japan and Taiwan ☺️ Which one’s your favourite? I love the ones with the ginkgo tree and flatbed truck.

When this long kitchen was divided by a peninsula, @belyndacheninteriors changed the layout and flow by turning it into an island. This created more countertop space for food prep, more storage, and still included seating.

An entire built-in pantry
