We will meet with you to prepare a detailed wish list of desires to plan the ideal city house to meet and exceed your requirements. Space planning, lighting and interior finishing are our specialties. We will work with you to select the right combination of gorgeous furnishings and finishes to create the atmosphere that is right for you.
Country houses are special places where cherished memories are made. It is so important to capture the natural light in cozy sitting areas to enjoy a morning coffee or a sunset cocktail. We focus on your lifestyle of relaxing around a stone fireplace or open fire pit, of gathering around a well-worn harvest table for meals and family games and of cuddling up under plush duvets. All the necessary details are considered to bring every cottage, ski lodge or lake house project to life.
We understand what makes leisure and business travelers feel welcome. Whether your hotel is located in the hustle and bustle of the downtown city core, or nestled away at the water’s edge, each of our interiors invite relaxation, comfort and charm. Each hotel property we work on has its own character and experience.
We recently renovated the iconic Lord Elgin Hotel, a downtown landmark located in the heart of our capital city. Behind the historic limestone building façade we carefully renovated and restored the 350 guest suites of this grand dame hotel with a contemporary interpretation of the original Art Deco detailing. Elegant renovated corridors lead to comfortable, functional suites with all new marble bathrooms, silk-look wall coverings and custom designed furnishings. Beautiful custom lamps and classy drapery details set these luxurious suites apart.
The Ramada Hotel on the Rideau River offers resort style lodging to vacationers and executive travelers in a tranquil park-like setting. The lobby was designed as a flexible social space with an open concept reception area, bar and breakfast room. Reclaimed wood floors, porcelain slabs, and dark paneling with on-trend unique furnishings enhance the multi-functional space. The custom furnished guest rooms have a moody palette of taupe and gray tones inspired by the natural wooded setting with splashy red signature accents of the Ramada brand.
The hotel clients that have worked with us have stayed with us through many years of ongoing renovations. We are proud to have kept our loyal following of hotel clients at the leading edge of the hospitality industry by constantly researching evolving trends.
Since 1988 Susan Firestone Design has mastered the art of creating relaxing, welcoming restaurant interiors. Each design we create has its own charm evoking a different experience.
Blue Cactus is a Californian, southwest themed restaurant with expansive windows opening to the hub of the tourist action in the Byward market. Warm wood, rough split stone finishes and giant modern chandeliers enhance this dramatic, double storey space.
At Luxe Bistro, our fresh interpretation of the classic French bistro is brought to life with painted brick, dark wood, old world Calacatta marble and off-beat industrial lighting; creating a modern aesthetic design. This popular hot spot has become the desired location of many intimate weddings and parties.
Plush, tufted, velvet banquettes, impressive slabs of book-matched marble, antique brass chandeliers and polished wood create the setting for vibrant conversation and cocktails at our most recent concept, Al’s Steakhouse. The renovation of this 50-year-old neighbourhood landmark has Rat Pack era swag and glamour with the laid back comfort of your living room.
