not challenging. With the assistance and
guidance of Pia Hugglestone, Glass’ senior
designer, the couple was able to make
the best choices when it came to colours,
materials and accents.
With an emphasis on Sylvia’s love of
white, various shades of neutral colours
were mixed with different textures to
create a soothing environment.
The open kitchen features elegant
cream-coloured cabinets that contrast
with the antique brown granite around
the perimeter. A large island perfect for
eating at or hosting gatherings of family
and friends was added into the space.
To make the island stand out as a focal
point in the kitchen, the cabinet was
designed in a darker brown and dressed
with Crema Clara quartz.
Open to the kitchen is the living room.
With furniture arranged around a
double-sided fireplace custom designed
by Jacqueline Glass and Associates, this
area is perfect for entertaining.
On the opposite side of the fireplace
is another seating area. Aside from the
elegant contemporary-looking fireplace,
the coffee table is another statement
piece. An artistic vintage car model holds
a thick sheet of glass to serve as a coffee
table. “It was a nice symbol to Frank’s
years of work at Ford Motor Company,”
said Sylvia.
Adjacent to this area is a workspace with
a window seat. “The view of the lake from
here is spectacular,” said Sylvia. The large
windows all around the condo expose
the view of the lake from various corners.
This perfect area is where the couple
spends most of their time.
Another luxurious space that was
carefully designed in this home was the
ensuite bathroom. Complete with double
sinks dressed with Cream Marfil marble, a
tub and a walk-in shower, this space is the
couple’s true sanctuary.
The timeless transitional style found
in this home creates a sophisticated
ambiance throughout. Using neutral
tones, Glass and her associates were able
to create a space for the Wiley family that
can be easily updated as trends change.
“It’s like dressing up the right dress; it’s all
about the base that you use,” said Glass.
