Embracing the Quirks of an Old Home

Les Ensembliers' home in Westmount, Montreal is an old and quirky house with beautiful rooms and great flow. They wanted to keep the formal nature of the house while infusing their own modern style.

Living in an old home requires embracing its imperfections and working with them rather than against them. By doing so, the quirks and imperfections become interesting elements that add to the story of the house.

Creating a Cozy and Modern Bedroom

In the master bedroom, Les Ensembliers wanted to create a cozy and modern space. They opted for a floating canopy bed in front of the bay window, which adds a touch of modernity to the room.

The closet in the master bedroom is designed to be accessible and lived-in. It features floating and hanging elements, creating a space that reflects their personal style and holds meaningful objects.
