This home was custom-built for a growing family in the residential Westboro neighborhood of Ottawa, taking cues from a rabbit's lair to embed living spaces into the ground.
Despite a modest footprint, the home's organization subverts expectations of levels, views, light, and sound, where familial joys like dining and play are felt in varied configurations.
Cleverly designed with vegetated roofs, terraces, and divergent openings, the architecture blurs boundaries, facilitating experience through moments of retreat, connection, and reflection.
Timeless materials like wood and glass were chosen alongside the family's whims, creating a minimal palette that harmonizes the interior and exterior experiences of the home.
