Armstrong can help you create a unified vision and establish a style identity throughout your home. Before choosing colors and furniture, determine the overall feeling you want for your home. Decide on one primary style, such as modern, bohemian, or traditional, with a few supporting accents.

We help our clients every step of the way from choosing materials, assisting with design, to installation and cleanup. Let us turn your vision into reality.

Renovation Design & Planning in Calgary

  • Use consistent architectural details. If possible, keep elements like interior doors, baseboards, and window and door trim consistent throughout the house. A consistent color on all millwork, often a shade of white, provides a continuous visual pathway.
  • Repeat materials and finishes. Echo the same materials and finishes in different rooms to create a feeling of intentionality. For example, if you have light wood floors, repeat that wood tone in furniture, frames, or shelves. You can also use the same metallic finish on hardware, faucets, and light fixtures.
  • Carry textiles and patterns. A signature pattern, texture, or fabric can be repeated in different forms. If you use a natural woven rug in the living room, you can echo that texture with a woven basket in the bedroom or a jute runner in the hall.
