Spent the morning on the 45th floor of the Icon. We worked extensively in the building and this penthouse unit was no exception as a vision in Quartz and porcelain.

The kitchen and bathroom employed a stunning 3cm Calacatta Lucia Quartz. The TV and bar areas were Premium Plus white Quartz. The porcelain walls were all Statuario Bari 6mm and the fireplace surround was Ardesia Nero A Spacco 5.6mm.

The most unbeatable view in the city up here. Nothing short of incredible.

We recently took delivery of three new electric Ford E-Transit fleet trucks and got the help of the good folks at Floodlight Electric to install three ChargePoint Level 2 chargers at our facility on Star Top Road.

As we navigate toward a greener and more sustainable future, we're continuing our track record of continued investments in environmentally friendly innovation and green technology.

One of our newest kitchen additions is complete and ready to view in our showroom and we couldn't be happier with the finished result.

This face frame kitchen features an organic contrast of green (Raintree Green by ) and wood. It also features a statement-making double island, shaker and slab doors, birch plywood interiors, and rift-cut white oak. We used Subtle Surge modern brushed gold pulls by

We selected Glacier Polished Quartzite, a natural stone from Brazil that showcases dramatic veining and colouring that complement the cabinets effectively. We employed that single stone choice for all the perimeters, the islands, and a focal backsplash application with a custom curved hood. We incorporated a reeded front panel on one of the islands and created a focal pantry wall that includes a wet bar with gold faucet and sink, and open shelving.

We were quite honoured to have been included as a partner in the 2023 Minto Dream Home, The Equestrian.
Located in Mahogany, Manotick, it is the grand prize for the CHEO Dream of a Lifetime Lottery, which has helped provide care and support to children and families in our community since 2001.
CHEO's work is important work, and this is the 23rd year in a row that Minto Communities Ottawa has put this together.

The Equestrian is a 4200-square-foot home that was nothing short of an amazing collective effort. It featured furnishing by La-Z Boy, an interior that was designed by Tanya Collins, and featured contributions from a variety of different partners.
We fabricated and installed DEKTON - an innovative ultra-compact surface by Cosentino, composed of a blend of raw materials, porcelain, and glass. Dekton surfaces and applications are highly resistant to heat damage and are very hard and non-porous.
Dekton was used extensively in The Equestrian, including the kitchen surfaces and island, backsplash, ensuite, laundry room, bath, basement wet bar, and a stunning outdoor kitchen.

Happy Thanksgiving Monday! What better way to spend waiting on the turkey than getting some for the kind of kitchen that can really bring the family together for the holiday.
Double tap this stunner. The name of the game here is GOLD, WHITE, and WOOD. X marks the spots, too.

Marble accents this beautiful open concept space extensively - both on the massive island and on the perimeter surfaces next to the range.
Face frame cabinetry with shaker door accents. Glossy subway backsplash. Custom designd range hood with feature detail. Farmhouse style island and millwork feature detail. Floating shelves. Gold branched pendant and upper crown level lighting make this space work on so many levels. Inviting, spacious, expansive, and warm are achieved simultaneously here.

You need to check these slabs out. Double tap this one! THIS is Danby marble. A unique North American marble that is as unique as it is coveted. It is very on-trend for 2022 - particularly for homeowners and designers looking to make a classic statement with their stone. For over 100 years, the world-famous quarry in Vermont’s Dorset Mountain has been producing this showstopping material. It’s the first marble quarry in the United States and it’s the largest underground marble quarry in the world! This material is timeless colonial elegance and makes a truly unique addition to any space. With a clean white overall coloration with light veining, it is a world-class white marble with tight grain and very soft gray-gold highlights. The material is known for its wide use in many American landmarks like the Arlington National Cemetery, the US Senate Building, and the Lincoln Memorial. Martha Stewart famously chose it for her personal home in the Hamptons in the early 2000s.

It is harder and less porous than many other types of white marble. For example, Danby’s absorption rate is .06%-0.08% vs. 0.13-0.18% for Calacatta or Carrara. As a result, it’s less likely to stain.

Marble simply looks more timeless and classic than really any other stone you can get. Whether it’s an old ice cream shop or soda fountain counter, a classic art deco style, a rustic Tuscan kitchen, or a classic french chef’s kitchen, marble has been the choice in spaces where we prepare food because of its look. Danby showcases the best characteristics of the material. White, cool, and subtle patterning. The natural etching and aging of this material is something that enthusiasts embrace because it adds character. Genuine natural beauty.

White and wood. Yes, please! This recently completed full kitchen project for a client defines the style. Double ❤️❤️ tap on this one!

Vesta designed and built the kitchen cabinetry and handled all the stone surface applications, tile, and flooring. This was what we like to call a turnkey project, so we also handled the demolition of the old kitchen, and took care of the full renovation which included the painting, the plumbing, as well as the electrical.

This is a clean white transitional kitchen with mid-tone maple accents and gold hardware – a timeless combination. The door style is shaker with bead detail. The design features double upper cabinets with glass doors for display, a custom hood designed by Vesta, a contrasting mocha stained island, and many interior accessories to aid in accessibility including a Lemans corner, and tray/spice pullouts beside the range. Lastly, a wall of pantry adds a great amount of storage.The flooring was a 24 x 24 quartz white matte Italian large format tile. The backsplash was a 3 x 12 white matte finish porcelain tile - also Italian. The gorgeous surfaces are Calacatta Arno quartz that features subtle gold accenting to match the gold hardware options and the client chose a beautiful Franke Cube undermount 18 gauge stainless steel sink.

Nothing short of stunning.

Double tap and show some love for another one of these newly arrived Brazilian beauties. Black Raj polished quartzite is a deeply captivating South American natural material that features licorice black, grey, and light ice blues that torrentially band across the slab like the controlled tides of Jupiter's atmosphere. The action of natural metamorphic activity is beautifully apparent in these stunning slabs and they deserve attention in person to appreciate their elegant theatricality and calm mysterious beauty. We have a limited inventory of these rare, hard-to-find slabs. They're ideal for the selective customer seeking to create the utmost focality in any space. Book an appointment with us and see the slabs in person in our showroom.

Double tap this absolutely gorgeous new addition to our quartzite inventory this month. Cinzu polished quartzite. Direct from Brazil. This continues a series of new highly exotic quartzites we've brought in that is a limited available inventory.
These stunning slabs evoke the visual of a shattering spring river ice flow that only a natural material more than 100 million years in the making can provide.
Tones of grey, ice white, and subtle hints of black present a unique visual that creates a statement-making element in any kitchen, particularly spaces with wood, white, grey, or dark applications.
The beauty of aesthetically theatrical natural stones like this is the veining. It tells a story of fire and compression deep in the earth's mantle that ultimately creates an elegant and undeniably timeless aesthetic. Come see it in our showroom at 1402 Star Top Road for a private viewing. It needs to be seen to be appreciated.
