Soroka encouraged the
couple to build out the
deck to the edge of the
building, capitalizing on the
potential for outdoor living.
She chose materials to
complement the cedar ceil-
ings in the master bedroom,
enhancing the indoor/out-
door visual transition, and
put up cedar walls to create
privacy.
ROOM WITH A VIEW
To highlight the deck and
view as visitors come
up the stairs to the living
space, Soroka created a full
mirrored wall, using a chic
roller shade for the inset
window that looks onto the
neighbouring building. She
anchored the space with a
sectional that would be func-
tional for the family and look
great when entertaining.
THE DESIGNER (Above)
Geele Soroka of Sublime
Interior Design was
brought in to create a
chic West Coast esthetic
that honoured the
incomparable ocean
views. "I remember touring
it for the first time and all
they could talk about was
the view," she says.
