Stealthy addition to a retiring suburban street brings an extended family together with calming ingenuity. This new residence designed by GREAT LAKE STUDIO in suburban Toronto was shaped by a complex design agenda: Create a distinctly contemporary home that doesn’t feel alien to its mild suburban surroundings; organize the elaborate lifestyle needs of a large, extended family within the small footprint of the bungalow it is replacing; and provide a calming environment with powerful connections to the outdoors throughout.
