fab designer, Karla Amadatsu of Kerrisdale designs

If you read the new Condos Lofts & Apartments ( House & Home ) you'll probably recognise this gorgeous BC apartment. Home owners Mark and Samantha turned to Karla Amadatsu, principle designer of Kerrisdale Design, to give this space a new lease on life,and she did just that-

I could, in an instant, settle right into this space. Karla's design aesthetic, along with the needs and style of the homeowners created a space that is crisp, fresh, well layed out, and includes tradition and youth. Have a look..









I love the palette. It's classic.. adore classic.
I also adore Karla of Kerrisdale Design and the lovely Janis Nicolay who photographed the space.

    What a great space - that light fixture is on my "things to covet" list. :) I also like how the photographs are grouped above the desk - just lovely.
