Homeowners with refined taste know the premier choice in luxury home renovation is RS Homes. For more than 35 years, RS Homes has been facilitating Toronto and GTA homeowners bring their design foresight to life creating homes with exceptional craftsmanship and unrivalled grandeur.

The transformation of this 40-year-old traditional home involved the demolition of the interior and new additions at the front and back. The renovation was a union of the clients’ desires and a creative design/build team working together to create a functional and stunning modern masterpiece that has been mistaken for a new build

We use the word Intuitive in our firm’s description very deliberately.  I believe there is an instinct in what we do as designers; in knowing exactly what a space, a client, a custom piecewill need.  That said, neither we nor your contractors are mind-readers.  Here are a few things you should share with your renovation team to ensure a successful renovation.

To write this article on Sustainable Interior Design, I decided to be truly authentic and travel up to a sustainable forest in northern Ontario,  my off-grid solar-powered getaway. Needless to say, the environment was conducive to being inspired, maybe a little too distracting, with butterflies, hummingbirds and a young fawn visiting me. However, it reinforced my philosophy of wanting to protect our environment. I will try to focus on providing an explanation of how “sustainable” is important in interior design.

In our practice, architects and landscape architects collaborate closely on a wide range of projects–everything from the Nathan Phillips Square Revitalization at Toronto City Hall to multi-unit residential, new single-family homes, and residential renovations. If there’s one idea we’d like to share with the RS Homes community, it’s this: how your home connects to the world outside has a lot to do with how much you’ll enjoy your living environment.
