NORDIC BUILDERS - MODERN TIMBERFRAME DESIGN BUILDTed is just installing the metal roof ridge on the 14/12 steep roof. We actually had to use harnesses it was so steep. Even the the cabin was only 16' wide, the ridge was at 21'. 10' walls. All framed with rough sawn pine timbers.
Small hybrid timerframe cabin build. All insulation is on the outside like the REMOTE wall system used in Alaska for decades. Inside framing is exposed. Entire house wrapped in EPS foam from slab up the walls and tied into roof without any breaks. Then strapped with purlins and finish materials attached to that.
Tru Form TinyThis Tiny home is clad with open, clear cedar siding and a rain screen. Each board is carefully gapped and secured with stainless steel screws. The corners are detailed with an alternating pattern. The doors are wood.
Sklar StudiosGood design comes in all forms, and a play house is no exception. When asked if we could come up with a little something for our client's daughter and her friends that also complimented the main house, we went to work. Complete with monkey bars, a swing, built-in table & bench, & a ladder up a cozy loft - this spot is a place for the imagination to be set free...and all within easy view while the parents hang with friends on the deck and whip up a little something in the outdoor kitchen.
MAAD ArchitectsThe NotShed is an economical solution to the need for high quality home office space. Designed as an accessory structure to compliment the primary residence.
Studio Z DesignThe potential of converting six laneway parking spaces at the back of the property into housing was apparent to architect Zuzanna Krykorka from the moment she laid eyes on the Parkdale, Toronto house her family ended up purchasing in 2018.
Unique for a laneway house, the house has windows on all sides, bringing in lot of natural light while also interacting with the life of a city laneway. The "lit" house at night makes it obvious that this is an inhabited living space, occupants becoming part of the neighbourhood rather than tucked away in secret.
The ground floor is a light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining and living room with views to the backyard framed by 3 massive 150 year old maple trees. Upstairs a spa-inspired bathroom with a large skylight surrounded by the tree canopy. Looking in either direction reveals that the central hall lines up with the north and south second-floor windows, again a nod to the house's laneway origins.
Construction details follow passive house principles. The large window at the top of the stairs— again framing a view of the sky—is a feature called "the oculus." By night, the oculus glows warmly from the outside, while during the day it can be opened so as to function as a cooling shaft. Heating is provided by in-floor hydronic radiant on both floors powered by an electric boiler. A heat pump water heater does the domestic hot water. Meanwhile, dense-pack cellulose insulation retains this heat during the winter and minimizes the need for air-conditioning in the summer.
But this system doesn't mean a stuffy interior: ventilation is enabled by Lunos "breathing wall" technology, a through-wall variable system that is coupled with a ceramic regenerative heat exchanger. Operating in pairs, these devices are installed directly through an exterior wall and provide continuous circulation without the need for duct-work, all of which has the added benefit of furthering the open, clean design aesthetic.
The laneway house sits comfortably among the many garages of this Parkdale lane. With its steel roof, wood siding and dark robust exterior, it wears its Toronto garage vernacular proudly, an active part of the laneway urban environment.

Medina Exteriors & RemodelingTook a worn out look on a home that needed a face lift standing between new homes. Kept the look and brought it into the 21st century, yet you can reminisce and feel like your back in the 50:s with todays conveniences.
Reap ConstructionThis home in the Mad River Valley measures just a tad over 1,000 SF and was inspired by the book The Not So Big House by Sarah Suskana. Some notable features are the dyed and polished concrete floors, bunk room that sleeps six, and an open floor plan with vaulted ceilings in the living space.
