Bringing ‘California Dream’ to the North Shore

Our nationally acclaimed, award-winning project, “California Dream,” exemplifies luxurious living by harmoniously blending the vibrant charm of California with the breathtaking beauty of British Columbia’s landscape.

Drawing from their decade in California, the homeowners sought to infuse their new British Columbia residence with the essence of ‘California Living’. We crafted a sanctuary that reflects California’s inviting warmth, captures abundant natural light, and delivers exceptional comfort year-round.

Seamless Indoor/Outdoor Living

Every detail was thoughtfully curated to strike a harmonious balance between beauty and practicality. The result is a fully customized home that perfectly fits the family’s lifestyle. It seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living spaces, allowing the homeowners to enjoy warm, sunny days and take in the North Shore’s breathtaking surroundings while also providing a cozy haven on colder, rainy evenings.

The 30-foot automated glass wall on the main floor, creates an open, flexible, and light-filled environment, enhancing the connection between indoor comfort and the natural beauty outside

Effortless Process, Exceptional Results

Throughout the construction process, communication was seamless despite the family’s remote location in California. Daily updates and photographs through our online portal ensured they remained informed and at ease, making the experience stress-free from start to finish.

This heartfelt ode to West Coast living masterfully integrates indoor and outdoor spaces, inviting homeowners to bask in sunlight and embrace the surrounding beauty. With warm, inviting interiors and meticulous attention to detail, the “California Dream” home resonates with elegance and sophistication, creating a truly refined living experience.
