Mill Run Project

Featured in the April/May 2023 issue of Style at Home magazine, this 30-year-old house near Uxbridge, Ontario was redesigned by Arren Williams to fit the taste of a stylish young family of four. Williams wanted to give them something bright and contemporary, a mix between Californian and Scandinavian. The Neolith Calacatta Luxe 01 Ultrasoft in the kitchen pushes the envelope with visual strength and personality, while the floor-to-ceiling Rice Grigio Lux wall tiles in the primary bathroom create a dramatic effect, contrasting the more colorful terrazzo floor tiles.

About this project

Arren Williams was the designer on the extensive renovation of this home outside of Toronto. The plan was to take the tired early 2000’s interiors and make the space feel both open and contemporary for a young and stylish family. The home was published in Style at Home magazine’s April/May 2023 issue.

Main Kitchen Area: The kitchen was designed without upper cabinets to make the space feel more open. The material used for both countertops, walls, and to wrap the island, is a stylish sintered stone material, the Neolith Calacatta Luxe in the Ultrasoft finish. Perfect for a young family, it’s both durable, heatproof and stain-proof.

Coffee Area: An unused space within the kitchen/dining area was repurposed to include room to prep and serve coffee and other drinks, as well as to max out storage. Mirroring the main kitchen area, the counters are in the Neolith Calacatta Luxe.

Mud Room / Powder Room: Off the kitchen stands a space that is both functional and stylish, with tons of storage for coats, boots and soccer gear. Here, mini Porcelain Mosaic Branco Porcelana Tiles wrap the seating area, keeping it easily cleanable, while on the floor Terrazzo Collection Docks Grey Honed Tiles look chic while hiding errant mud and muck.
