The Modern Bungaloft

This custom bungaloft home in Oakville, designed by our team as both the architectural and interior designer, blends contemporary architecture with natural warmth. Defined by clean lines, balanced proportions, and natural materials, the exterior pairs light stone and smooth stucco with dark-framed windows and a durable metal roof. Vertical window groupings create rhythm across the façade, while wood accents at the entry introduce contrast and warmth.

The bungaloft layout maximizes functionality and lifestyle. The main floor serves as the primary living space, with an open-concept kitchen, dining, and great room, along with a main-floor primary suite for convenience and accessibility. The second floor is designed for guests and family, offering additional bedrooms and a den that provide privacy and flexibility without compromising the home’s open feel.

Inside, natural materials and light continue to define the design. The kitchen combines custom wood and soft white millwork with a sculptural hood and full-height quartzite backsplash. A large island with tailored seating makes the space both functional and social. The adjacent living and dining areas are anchored by a soaring porcelain fireplace wall that rises toward the vaulted ceiling, while expansive windows flood the interior with light and connect the home to its landscaped setting.

The primary ensuite evokes a spa-like retreat with porcelain and sintered stone surfaces, brass fixtures, and a freestanding tub beneath clerestory windows—balancing privacy with natural light.

On the lower level, the design shifts toward leisure and entertainment. A marble-clad custom bar, games area with integrated millwork, and a dedicated spa with steam room extend the home’s modern comfort into a more casual, restorative setting.

This custom Oakville bungaloft demonstrates how architecture and interior design work together to create a contemporary home that is sophisticated, welcoming, and highly functional for both everyday living and hosting.
