DoubleMint House / large [medium] design office

September 4, 2024 Hadir Al Koshta 0

An additional bedroom for twin brothers currently sharing a room, and space for a proper dining table where of course the clients could enjoy meals with friends and family but could also host a variety of family-friendly activities ranging from game night to puzzles, to schoolwork. DoubleMint House is a two-story rear addition and partial renovation to a three-story semi-detached Edwardian-style home in Toronto. The project includes a fully renovated basement and a third-story walkout roof deck. The organization of the addition originates on the second floor in creating two bedrooms of very similar qualities with only subtle differences; a nod to the eventual occupants of the bedrooms. The room proportions and dimensions are very similar, identical windows are situated in each room, and the rooms participate equally in a narrow double-height space at the end of the bedrooms. The subtlety in the differences is situated in the sculpting of the ceilings and the hue of blue paint on the exterior facing the bulkhead of the double-height volumes.
