A glimpse inside a modern masterpiece.

In crafting a client’s vision into a bespoke haven, Interior Designer Tanya Wassen at Spot On Interior Design embarked on a creative journey to design a custom home that seamlessly fused aesthetics with functionality. Commencing with a detailed client consultation, Tanya meticulously gathered preferences, lifestyle requirements, and the architectural nuances of the space. Armed with a profound understanding of the client’s desires, Tanya curated a mood board, integrating color schemes, textures, and furniture selections that reflected the client’s personality and aspirations. Tanya’s keen eye for detail was evident in the selection furnishings, lighting fixtures, and art pieces, all harmoniously coming together to create an environment that resonated with the client’s taste. The result was not just a house but a personalized sanctuary, where every element told a story and embraced the unique essence of the homeowner.

Tanya Wassen, the Owner and Lead Designer at Spot On Interior Design based in Kamloops, British Columbia brings a wealth of experience to the table. With a background in the construction industry, a degree in interior design, and the prestigious NCIDQ certification, she has cultivated an outstanding skill set. This, combined with the complementary talents of her team, enables Spot On to provide a broad and personalized array of services, encompassing everything from new builds to layout designs. As you step into this modern masterpiece nestled in the heart of Kamloops, British Columbia, the first thing that captures your attention is the grandeur of the 2-storey foyer. The open stairway, custom entry millwork, and the allure of the modern beam ceiling detail draw you through the space, setting the tone for what lies ahead. This residence seamlessly marries the elements of nature with cutting-edge design, offering a unique take on contemporary living.
One of the distinguishing features of this home is the strategic placement of the main living areas on the basement level, a design choice that capitalizes on Kamloops’ renowned indoor/outdoor living experience. The kitchen, living room, dining area, primary bedroom, ensuite, theatre, laundry, and powder room converge in this lower level, creating a harmonious flow and emphasizing the connection with the surrounding environment. Expansive glass doors and double-storey windows play a pivotal role in blurring the boundaries between the indoors and outdoors, allowing residents to bask in the breathtaking panoramic views that Kamloops has to offer. This design not only floods the living spaces with natural light but also provides a constant connection to the changing colors of the sky and the landscape beyond.
The heart of this modern abode lies in its attention to detail and innovative features. The state-of-the-art kitchen boasts built-in appliances, combining functionality with a sleek aesthetic. A double-storey stone and plaster wall, housing a three-way fireplace, becomes a focal point that adds warmth and sophistication to the living area. The custom-built bed, steam shower, home office, and gym contribute to the home’s practical yet luxurious appeal. What sets this project apart is the holistic approach taken by Spot On, the mastermind behind this architectural marvel. From the exterior finishing to the intricate interior detailing, from hand-picked furniture to the overall styling, Spot On has left no stone unturned in creating an immersive living experience. The commitment to excellence extends even to the landscape design, where the natural textural elements and details of the surroundings have been seamlessly integrated into the overall aesthetic.
This home represents a perfect marriage between modern architecture and the welcoming comfort of natural elements. The result is a space that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and livable, embodying the spirit of Kamloops’ indoor/outdoor lifestyle. As a testament to Spot On’s dedication to providing a full-service experience, this project stands as a beacon of pride, showcasing the potential for contemporary living in the heart of British Columbia.
