A home designed for entertaining in Edgemont Village, North Vancouver- two spare brick clad, gabled volumes are separated by a high-ceilinged entertaining space, connected upstairs by a bridge. This more traditional form seems to suit the character of the neighbourhood well, yet the spare and crisp detailing and large sheets of glass hint at its modern and open space planning. Our clients are very particular about colours, tones and textures and I’m grateful they have spent the time to get the materials just right- real brick, aluminum windows and clear wooden siding are vital to success of the home. Not to mention the high performance that comes from all the passive solar gain.
