How To Design A Formal Home With Quirk & Character

Take a tour of Les Ensembliers‘ traditional home in Westmount, Quebec. See how H&H‘s Designers of the Year, Richard Ouellette and Maxime Vandal, paid homage to the house’s traditional bones by juxtaposing modern elements with cherished vintage pieces. In the kitchen, open shelving doesn’t take away from the natural light, while chevron floors and deep plum Shaker-style cabinets add character. Richard achieved an eclectic feeling by adorning formal furniture in quirky fabric, and displaying his and Maxime’s collection of unique sculptures, artwork and other momentos. Wait until you see the couple’s airy closet, which feels just like a boutique. Plus, Richard shares his tips for mastering the mix of old and new.
