BEHIND THE SCENE

Restoring an Airstream is akin to redesigning an entire house. For this trailer, we pulled it all the way back to the shell and reconsidered every aspect of the layout to create this home on wheels for five. We added a private bedroom, another bed, and more functional living and cooking space. Swipe for the "before" floorplan and a glimpse of the finished product!

This dining room extends directly from a wide, open doorway into the family's kitchen - the blue kitchen you've seen peppering our feed! The room receives tons of natural light from windows on three sides, and we made it feel even brighter by painting the wooden ceilings white. It still has plenty of rustic charm with the wood-burning stove, solid wooden beams, hardwood floors, and a very special table that handmade by our client's father.

Swipe to see the transformation. Our client ended up loving the look so much we painted all the ceilings throughout the house!

Canadians use an average of 329 litres of water per person every day! 💦

Our country is home to 20% of the world's freshwater, so it important we all work together to preserve and protect this precious resource. When we lived on a boat and in an Airstream trailer, we were very aware of our water consumption as we had to carry our freshwater with us! Now that we're back to a home with a municipal water supply, we work hard to conserve water wherever we can.

Here are some of our tips for cutting down your consumption:
🚿 Use efficient appliances and faucets. Around 85% of our household water is used for bathing, flushing the toilet, and laundry. Washing machines that conserve water, low-flow showerheads, and high-efficiency toilets can significantly reduce water consumption.
💧 Repair anything wasting water. A leaky faucet is more than just annoying: a tap that drips six drops per minute will lose 1200 litres of water a year!
🌳 Think about outside. Water gardens and lawns in the evening or overnight, to limit water lost through evaporation. If you have space, install tanks to collect rainwater to use for your garden.

Last December, we designed a full condo remodel for these clients after their home was destroyed from water damage. We redesigned the layout and renovated the entire condo including the kitchen, master suite, laundry room, and home office.

One of the owners saw the finished condo for the first time and sent us this message. This is why we love our jobs!
