Driven by a passion for ambiance and narrative, Principal and Creative Kim Lambert approaches design with a refined sense of restraint. Her spaces are poetic—crafted with intention and choreographed for harmony. “I’m interested in how material, texture, light, and volume interact—and how those elements resonate with the people who inhabit a space,” she says. “Ornamentation is used with care: enough to heighten the experience, but never to overwhelm it. A restrained composition allows each detail to hold its place. Less is more when every element has meaning.”
The home belongs to a couple in their 40’s with five sons under the age of 17 —a lively household. He works in finance, while she, a former model, now turns her creative energy toward making art of her own. “The brief to design their home called for an entirely new narrative,” Kim Lambert remembers. “They were open, curious, and eager to explore the interplay of hard and soft elements—a language I love to speak.”
Set in Hoggs Hollow—one of Toronto’s most refined enclaves—the property is surrounded by winding rivers and mature trees, where natural forms and architectural quietude coexist in harmony.
