Allenby

Project Allenby is a celebration of classic design with a fresh, modern sensibility.

Designed for a young family of three, this home balances classic sophistication with personal, eclectic touches.

The project involved a three-story rear addition, thoughtfully expanding the footprint of this ravine lot in the heart of Toronto. We guided the homeowners through the permit process and helped them successfully navigate municipal approvals, ensuring a seamless transformation of their home.

The heart of the home is a bright, airy kitchen featuring crisp white cabinetry and a striking dark island, all grounded by warm white oak floors.

A gracefully curved range hood adds a touch of softness, while layered shades of white, create a seamless, sophisticated look.

Step into the powder room, where drama takes center stage. Wrapped in a deep green so dark it’s nearly black, the walls and ceiling create an intimate, moody retreat—a bold contrast to the light-filled elegance of the main living space. Classic, refined, and effortlessly chic, this home is a perfect balance of brightness and depth.

The primary ensuite is a true retreat, featuring a stunning double shower and a freestanding tub perfectly positioned in a window, offering a serene escape.

Classic yet fresh, timeless yet personal—this home is a reflection of the family who lives in it.

We hired Andi and the AMAZING team at Two Birds Design to manage the entire design process of our major, full home project including a large addition and to-the-studs renovation.

We went into this project with no real understanding of the permit process in Toronto and the many complexities that go along with it. Andi helped us navigate every step of this process with her incredible organizational skills and deep knowledge of the system.

Once we were through permitting, Andi and her team helped bring the home of our dreams to life. They listened carefully to our extremely detailed wish list, respected budget and always had creative solutions to help us meet our goals. Their design approach was gorgeous while also being practical for our everyday life as a family. 

This project was daunting to say the least, but we felt at ease and confident with Two Birds at the helm and could not have done it without them. Today, when people come to visit, the first question we are asked is who designed our home - a testament to how beautiful the final product is.

We cannot thank the Two Birds team enough for the love, care and attention they put into our home and would recommend them to anyone looking for a design team, without hesitation.

They are truly the best designers in Toronto - their talent only rivaled by how lovely they are to work with as people. - Anika and Andrew, Project Allenby
