Out of the Gray: The Ayub Project

Interior designer Jennifer Todryk of No Demo Reno adds texture to a cutom hood as part of the renovation of the home of Naz and Umer Ayub. After moving from California, the Ayubs hope that Jenn can transform their new and neutral-gray house into a home that packs more visual punch and personality. "We like the floor plan," said Naz, "we just kind of want to make it feel more like a home now."

The Ayub Project

Jenn works on a cheeseboard center piece in the Ayub's newly renovated kitchen, a staging detail prior to the final reveal. "A lot of times clients hire me to personalize their space," says Jenn, "to make them feel settled and to make them enter their home and be like, 'This is my house.'"

The Ayub Project

Kitchen, Before. The Ayub's renovation budget was $85,000, and Jenn and team had 6 weeks to complete the project. Prior to the renovation, the Ayub's kitchen is spacious but visually bland and lacking in personality. For their update, the homeowners requested that Jenn incorporate modern, fun tiling as well as Moroccan accents.

Kitchen, After. In the renovated kitchen, the dull and dated floor tile is replaced with striking black hex tile, providing sharp contrast within the light and airy new palette. The kitchen's informal dining space features a new table and window seat.

Living Room, Before. The kitchen-adjacent living area, prior to the renovation, is functional and spacious, with dramatic high ceilings but, in terms of furnishings and overall feel, is visually plain, boring and dated. It's one of the rooms the homeowners describe as having "too much gray."

The Ayub Project

Living Room, After. Relatively simple and modest changes, with no changes to the floor plan, combine to create an enhanced and dramatically different ambiance — with bold contrasts, natural wood finishes and comfortable, inviting furnishings in contemporary style.

Living Room, After. New full-length window treatments in rich navy, a contemporary console in dark finish and large-scale decorative mirror all help accentuate the open and dramatic feel of the space while the vintage rug helps tie together the colors of the room.

The Ayub Project

Living Room, After. The walls are freshly painted in a bright, neutral white that blends well with the rest of the house. "Honestly [the living room] was more about decor and the right size furniture," says Jenn, "and how to bring some life to this space."

Main Bath, After. "I feel like I went from motel bathroom," says Naz, "to peaceful, tranquil, unique — like, this is my statement piece."

The Reveal. The Ayub’s get their first look at their newly renovated living room.

The Ayub Project

"There's no way that Umer and I could've come to an agreement on a lot of the different aspects that Jenn somehow incorporated," says Naz. "We're both really happy with the results, and we do genuinely feel like this is our home now."

The Ayub Project

The renovation included a smaller tub to accommodate the larger footprint of the expanded shower. Jenn takes an opportunity to check the new tub for proper fit.
