CANDY HOUSE

This site was a rare left-over lot that had remained vacant over the decades.
Adjacent a heritage item and in a conservation area, great geometric care and formal sensitivity was needed to create an appropriate fit, both temporal and contextual.
A 3 level L-shaped form that pivots around a pool environment, with a car lift stacker, is hidden from the street, which presents as a 2-story private and formal façade, yet opens onto a fully transparent and porous volume in its organization of internal space, immediately connecting the guest with the pool below and the sky above.
