A Modern Heritage Style house was designed to fit as an infill within the context of a historical town. This project consisted of 2 buildings - the main house & a small cottage style secondary suite above the garage. Both buildings shared a common design vocabulary.

This infill site was 50’ wide and 120’ deep with a south exposure. By taking advantage of the site orientation, maximum natural light was brought into the interior from the south, and passive solar energy by photovoltaic panels placed on the south facing roofs was also incorporated.

A 14’ heigh cathedral ceiling in the primary bedroom on upper floor, and also in the secondary suite became a unique characteristic of this property. Natural light and beautiful views from the windows created a comfortable and inviting living environment.
