When the owners of this late 19th-century home felt like their space was getting too cramped for their family’s needs, they called Bryant Renovations to help them open it up. An underutilized attic and chopped-up main floor were their main concerns. Bryant Renovations’ designer suggested removing the walls, while retaining the home’s heritage features. The budget for this renovation was $200,000, with the project being done in two parts, starting with the main floor in 2006, and finishing with the third floor in the winter of 2008.

The new la...
Renovating From the Inside Out
Sometimes, a dream home is not the one that lasts forever - it is the home that allows homeowners to change with their needs, wants and even the rest of the neighborhood. Such was the case with this Calgary home, built in 1960 as a 1,300-square-foot bungalow ...
New Home, Blank Slate
When building a home from the ground up, it’s not necessarily simple to envision what may go inside. Staring into the deep hole of the foundation, the last thing on most homeowners’ minds is the placement of the bathtub or the type of flooring that will eventually lie underfoot. Fortunately ...
