  1. ????My first meet-and-greet is happening THIS TUESDAY APRIL 25 at 6pm in Toronto at the Bay/Bloor Indigo! ????

    I’ll be signing copies of Own Your Space (copies will be available to purchase there or you can bring your own). Entry is free, all you have to do is show up!

    Address:
    55 Bloor Street West
    Toronto, ON

  5. *Round of Applause* This is fantastic!!

    Also, I am glad she acknowledged that using the word "crazy" can be problematic. For the future some replacement suggestions: unexpected, wild, thrilling etc……

  6. Soooo good, not only does it have really cute decorative elements but really good functional design choices. One of your best!!!!

  8. Technically not true that this is the first space you've come back to because you did the kitchen at the tree house apartment for your friends and then later moved in and completely updated it!

  9. WOW that makeover was the best you and your team have ever done…it's just so beautiful AND there is so much more storage space AND the apartment feels so bigger…thankyou for sharing Alexandra and team AG ????????????

  10. It must have been really special to see how far you've come & how much you've grown and improved since the other makeover. You and your team are absolutely incredible. You can truly see how unified you all are. You guys should absolutely be so proud of yourselves ❤️

    Keep killing it ????????????❤️

  11. I am so blown away by your talent and imagination. ???? The apartment is stunning ????. Your friend is so very lucky to have you do this for her. Best wishes to you both ❤️.

  12. I think this has been my favorite makeover and i say this about all of them but this is amazing. dare is say you made it spacious xxx

  14. This was so wonderful. The amount you were able to add to this space is truly insane. The vibe is so lovely and the design choices were spot on!

  16. Love everything you do truly! Just think white doors would seem more seamless than peach but hey not my space. ????

  18. This is the best yet! I love it so much. You really made the best of every inch of that space. But wait, what about the bathroom? ????❤????

  19. I love love love the 2nd version of this apartment. I think you did a cute job before but this version so much more!! Thanks for sharing!❤????

  22. This is amazing. You definitely added ‘more’ but it also seems less cluttered? All the extra storage is gamechanging and so was changing the kitchen cabinet doors. The kitchen table was bigger but it seems much more tidy looking as you can’t see everything in the cabinets. Well done AG team!

  23. I loved most of it but question the use of the shelving now that the kallax was used. I would have done curtains rather than headboard and flat curtains. Maybe cut the shelving down and put under the other one over the desk? I love those little leaf handles would have preferred that or something larger though for me all the uppers would have been open style. A shame Graham wasn't going to redo that makeshift shelving as was terribly made. I don't know about the chairs going to get dirty fast. Loved the shuttered closet we didn't see her WC at all couldn't tell where it was will you be redoing that as well? Hope the book signing goes well.

  24. I loved that with such a small space, you added so much. I like that you choose to correct what was bothering you from the first time you did the makeover. I loved everthing and my favorite is the bed nook . Great job Alexandra

  25. What a change! I especially like the Kallax hack, so clever! The kitchen cabinet doors make it look less cluttered which is essential in a small space. The only think that is not in my taste is the peach color on the doors combined with the wooden wardrobe in the middle..in my opinion it breaks up the space making it look smaller… and I am not fond of peach anyway… personal tastes can differ…Overall a really good reno!
