Nordic Retreat

This Scandanavian-inspired family home clad in warm organic materials, with large, high-performance windows that open to the tree lined streetscape and private back yard. The massing of the home is broken down using a series of striking cut-outs and deep shadow lines detailing designed to respect the architectural rhythms on the adjacent heritage homes. Inside, a custom credenza divides an open-concept main floor into a series of cozy and functional spaces. A warm, palette rich with natural materials lends a timelessness to the interior detailing. This home features an extremely efficient building envelope and a grid-tied solar electric system that produces as much power as the home uses each year.
