GIVE YOUR HOME A NEW LOOK FOR THE NEW YEAR

GIVE YOUR HOME A NEW LOOK FOR THE NEW YEAR

If you’re looking at upgrading your living space in 2015, what has not changed is the importance of having a clear design plan and an experienced project management team to implement it. For over 40 years North Shore residents have relied on Coordinated Kitchen and Bath, located at 123 East 1st Street in North Vancouver to provide them with their complete kitchen and bathroom home renovation needs.

From the design phase and throughout the construction project, this firm is an invaluable partner for home owners seeking the right combination of project management, interior design, and materials and fixtures.

When considering a renovation, Coordinated Kitchen and Bath advises that with every new season comes a fresh selection of trends and colours - materials, colours and paints are evolving as trends and tastes change. For this reason it important to ensure your renovation is nota trend, but rather a space that is a reflection of who you are and the things you love. Besides experienced design services, another advantage of working with Coordinated Kitchen and Bath is their distinct vertical integration, which means the specialist who sells you your kitchen and bathroom is also the person who will project manage its construction.

The advantage of this is that you work with one contact person rather than being handed off from a sales person to a project manager to a completions manager. This can be important in managing engineering issues, change orders, designs, materials choices and final deficiencies.

Furthermore, Coordinated’s project managers have years of experience selling, designing, and managing kitchen and bathroom renovation projects. To see samples of how Coordinated Kitchen and Bath have transformed the homes of your neighbours and friends on the North Shore, check out their online photo galleries at coordinatedkitchens.com, or drop by their showroom at 123 East 1st Street.

bathroom renovation on Vancouver’s westside

Coordinated Kitchen and Bath, along with builder Dave Parrott, recently completed a stunning bathroom renovation on Vancouver’s westside. This bathroom remodel involved the gutting of an existing south facing bathroom, followed by a complete redesign of the space.

As is clearly evident, the new bathroom is both an elegant synergy of old world charm interwoven with the latest in bathroom design. The centrepiece of the project is a beautiful white Victoria and Albert York bathtub with polished nickel drain set and a Sigma Butler Mill polished silver tub filler.

Both in and out the shower are 12 x 24 polished marble black forest tiles and 5 x 5 Anenome hand pressed wall tiles, which together create a seamless flow from the open shower into the bathroom. The shower stall features a discreet Aco channel drain system, a Sigma Faucets Butler Mill polished silver shower set, and clear glass shower panels. The bathroom cabinet vanity, manufactured by Columbia Cabinets, features painted maple shaker doors, along with a matched recessed cabinet above the Toto Acquia wall hung toilet.

The vanity countertop is Blanc de Rio Panazzo marble, with silver plated Sigma faucets and a Kohler Caxton undermount sink. The bathroom floors are heated throughout by a temperature controlled heating system.

North Shore News

Coordinated Kitchen and Bath has been serving customers on the North Shore and Vancouver since 1974, renovating and building kitchens and bathrooms for three and four generations of North Shore and Westside home owners.

Over the decades, one thing that has not changed is that design trends and technology never stop evolving. Kitchens and bathrooms have become ever more sophisticated, which often makes for kitchen and bathroom renovations that are considerably more involved than remodels of other areas of the home.

The kitchen brings together so many elements and is often the most used part of the home – high foot traffic, multiple appliances, water, electricity, lighting, gas. Bathrooms have also become increasingly sophisticated – heated floors, vapour barriers, water control systems, grouting, tile, infinity drains – all a far cry from the considerably more basic bathrooms being installed on the North Shore in the 1970’s.

Since 1974 Coordinated Kitchen and Bath has been building dozens and dozens of bathrooms and kitchens every year, which translates into a solid understanding of evolving design and technology trends. Through an established network of the finest suppliers and specialty trades, as well as its own in-house designers, project managers, and trades, Coordinated Kitchen and Bath’s customers are assured of having access to the best of what is available on the market.

Flavours of the Season

Another year is drawing to a close. It is hard to believe, but in just a few days Halloween will have passed and Christmas will be before us.

With the new season comes a whole selection of fresh seasonal trends and colours. Materials, colours, paints, are all going through their regular transformations as trends and tastes change. Here at Coordinated Kitchen and Bath we are projecting more purples in the trends for 2015. Expect to see more magenta, rose, mauve in paint colours and tiles as the year comes to a close.

Happily winter will not last forever, so with the arrival of the new year, expect to see mossy greens and taupes enter the mix. This means a play of these colours in fabrics, carpets, and paints. For those seeking a safer colour palette, greys and whites will once again hold their own; however, they can be beautifully complimented with touches of rose and mossy greens to add sparks of colour.

The only certainty in life is that it will never be constant. Coordinated Kitchen and Bath and Colours by Paula are pleased to help our customers on the North Shore and in Vancouver navigate the complex array of colours, cabinets, fixtures, and materials that are key to creating the perfect kitchen, bath, and home renovation time after time.

North Vancouver Kitchen Renovation

This beautiful Mount Seymour home is part of a neighbourhood undergoing substantial new home construction and general renovations.

The home owner approached Coordinated Kitchen and Bath after being referred to us by one of our current clients. They were looking to completely redo their kitchen and make a transition from tile to hardwood floors.

Some of the major changes involved the installation of clear alder Columbia Kitchen Cabinets with Richelieu hardware. An island with a Cambria Quartz countertop on a hardwood floor base was also designed in. The kitchen window was replaced with a high efficiency window. Plumbing was upgraded and replaced with a stainless steel Grohe dual spray faucet and a stainless steel Franke double undermount Regatta sink. There were also substantial lighting upgrades to the kitchen and dining area.
