Roxborough House, located in South Rosedale, Toronto, presents a striking example of heritage-preserving renovation. Originally built in the 1920s, the Edwardian home faced the challenge of modernization while respecting its historical character. New structures, including a two-story addition and garage, are clad in hand-molded brick, maintaining aesthetic continuity with the neighborhood. The design enhances spatial flow and intimacy through a newly created courtyard garden, strategic voids, and reclaimed materials, making the renovation both functional and respectful of the home's history.
The design seamlessly marries heritage preservation with modern minimalism, utilizing hand-molded brick for new structures while enhancing the spatial flow and intimacy of the layout.
Constructing the garage with reclaimed materials and designing around original features leads to a deeper connection between the old and new aspects of the home.
