This project focused on renovating a large recreation room for the Durham Condominium Corporation at 1210 Radom St. The goal was to update the space to help the older building compete with newer condos in the GTA area.

Problems

The room had several issues that needed to be addressed before and during the renovation:

• The space felt dark and outdated, making it unattractive to residents.

  
  

• The original kitchen area was not functional for modern use.

  
  

• The condo needed a higher quality space to attract and keep residents.

  
  

• We found mold in the insulation that had to be safely removed and replaced.

  
  

• The archways were not symmetrical, making the room division look awkward.

Solution

The renovation focused on safety, structure, and delivering a modern, multi-purpose design:

• We completed a full redesign to make the room classy and functional for all events.

  
  

• New lighting was installed to eliminate the darkness and brighten the space.

  
  

• We removed the mold and installed new material.

  
  

• Soundproof ceiling tiles were added to improve the room's function as an event space.

  
  

• We modified and corrected the archways to make them look balanced and clearly separate the dining and dance areas.

  
  

• The kitchen space was made fully functional and ready for catering.

Key Features

The updated recreation room now offers residents modern amenities that make the space attractive and easy to use:

• Integrated Sound: We installed in-ceiling speakers so residents can enjoy music or movies without seeing messy wires or bulky speakers. This creates a clean look and great sound for events.

  
  

• Central Gathering Area: The main area features a custom TV and Fireplace wall unit. This unit is the room's main attraction, providing a warm, comfortable place for residents to gather and watch TV.

  
  

• Stylish Design: A unique custom built feature wall adds a modern, high end feel to the room, making it look much more appealing.

  
  

• Easy Communication: A helpful custom built message board is available for posting community updates and announcements clearly.

In Conclusion

The renovated space is now a modern asset for 1210 Radom St. By solving hidden issue like the mold and risk while delivering a sophisticated design, BlueSwan Realty successfully provided the Durham Condominium Corporation with a high value amenity. The new recreation room is bright, functional, and provides a competitive edge against newer properties in the surrounding area.
