Interior Design in Rosedale, ON
Refined Living in the Heart of the City
In Rosedale, Toronto’s most distinguished neighborhood, heritage homes line tree-shaded streets and architecture tells stories of the city’s past. Here, luxury takes on a refined, metropolitan character where timeless details meet modern ease. This is urban sophistication at its finest, designed for how you live day-to-day while honoring the legacy of your home.
At Aspen & Ivy, we create interiors that embrace this duality: updating traditional forms with subtle innovation, and layering elegance with livability. Whether you’re restoring a historic residence or reimagining a family home, our interiors reflect the sophistication, balance, and comfort Rosedale is known for.
A Thoughtful Transformation of a Historic Toronto Home
The Rosedale Revival Project was a delightful endeavor, transforming a beautiful home brimming with architectural details into a space that perfectly suited the client’s casual lifestyle. Our goal was to gently update the traditional and formal elements dark paint colors, ornate trim, harlequin foyer tile, voluminous silk drapery, and crystal chandeliers while preserving its inherent charm.
Key updates included:
-
A fresh fireplace redesign anchoring the living space
-
An updated kitchen backsplash with elegant simplicity
-
Black lacquer doors with solid brass hardware
-
Light, single-tone matte walls creating a serene backdrop
-
New furniture, lighting, and art that effortlessly blended sophistication with comfort
The result: a home that feels relaxed, current, and highly livable, while retaining its timeless elegance.
