Bryk House

I'm really enjoyed watching Bryk House on the Home channel. Have you seen it?

Bryk House is a show that features a family (the Bryks!!) and their process of renovating their

Toronto home. The job as mainly done by the lady of the house, Danielle. Her husband Greg is an
actor (and often is away) so much of the work, including the manual labour was left to Danielle.
She did a really great job on her home and has now launched her own design business.

The show really appealed to me because I like Danielle's design aesthetic. It's not everyone's taste

but it really appeals to me. I like her use of whites and greys, dark floors, some industrial elements

and wooden pieces for warmth and texture.

Cosy family room with lots of seating and coffee tables that are easy to move.

Beautifully finished crisp white painted woodwork against dark floors sets the tone of the

home upon entry.

Daughter Ella sitting at the old farm house dining table complimented by modern chairs

and great art.

The open shelving in the family kitchen are actually beams that were salvaged during the renovation.

A great reuse of materials and a great way to cut costs.

The master bedroom has a really neutral palette that is calm and cosy.

Beautiful features are the plush bedding and marbled fireplace.

An extra room in the home was converted into a modern ensuite.

Again to save some costs, Danielle had the original clawfoot tub restored.

Next week I'll post a little about her other show, A Bryk At A Time and show some

of the work she has done for her clients.
