Contemporary Custom Home in Elbow Park
4,200 sq. ft. balance of lifestyle and location
Project Story
We designed this custom home for two young professionals starting their lives together. They discovered a stunning lot in Calgary’s Elbow Park neighbourhood that offered 360-degree views and a unique opportunity for redevelopment.
The clients came to us with a well-thought-out list of wants and needs, which helped guide the design process. Energetic and open to ideas, they wanted a home that reflected their current lifestyle while thoughtfully planning for future possibilities, including starting a family.
This project combines a fantastic location, tailored design, and a forward-thinking approach to modern living.
Key Features
- Upper-Level Yoga Studio & Library: The couple’s design included spaces where they could pursue their active and intellectual hobbies.
- Lifestyle-Focused Design: Design features were customized to suit their unique daily routines while accommodating their vision for future family living.
- Future-Ready Layout: The home was crafted to adapt from an individual lifestyle to one that supports a growing family.
- Maximizing Natural Beauty: Large windows and thoughtful orientation take full advantage of the property’s stunning 360-degree views.
Challenges
Building on a steep lot presented both a challenge and an opportunity. We carefully planned the home’s placement to take full advantage of the slopes while ensuring structural integrity and optimizing views.
