Spectacular Modern Masterpiece
3,200 Sq.Ft. | Ledbury Park / Toronto | Completed 2012
This 3,200-square-foot home on Brookdale was inspired by the residential works of Frank Lloyd Wright and Rudolph Schindler.The ground-floor scheme has been tailored for a contemporary family accustomed to relaxed living, though a certain stateliness is available for those occasions when it’s wanted. Tall white walls elegantly frame the various locations in the open plan of the entry level – the living-room area (accented by a black partition, a polished dark grey marble fireplace and long mantle), the formal dining area, family room off the kitchen. The stairwell is striking and dramatic with a staircase composed of thick oak treads borne upward by a steel spine, all of it floating free of the wall.
