Project Spotlight: Smart Planning & Function: the Palomino transformation is one of the most complete home renovations we have completed in Montreal. The best renovations don’t start with demolition.

Flexible Space Design Montreal is what separates a condo that feels tight from one that feels considered. When you move from a house to a smaller space, the instinct is to mourn what you lost. The extra bedroom. The dedicated office. The dining room that only got used on holidays. But here is what the
Custom Upholstery Montreal is one of the most requested categories we work with at LUX decor. And it is one of the areas where the stakes are highest.

Home Redesign Montreal starts with a decision: you’re staying. And that changes everything about how your home should be designed. It’s not about keeping up with trends.

Downsizing Style Montreal homeowners know well: the biggest myth about downsizing is that you have to give up beauty and that smaller spaces mean basic furniture, that you’re trading quality for square footage.
