The pool is flanked by two rows of acid-etched concrete stepping stones. Each stone is bordered on three sides by sections of artificial turf for low maintenance. The fourth side abuts the sections of natural lawn which serve as large play areas for the children.

This new ultra-modern suburban Toronto home is beautifully located on a steep treed ravine with a shallow backyard. The owners wanted the design of the backyard to complement the clean lines of the home. The challenge was to fit everything into a relatively confined area so the fully featured backyard would feel majestic and open.

A young couple with three small children purchased this full floor loft in Tribeca in need of a gut renovation. The existing apartment was plagued with awkward spaces, limited natural light and an outdated décor. It was also lacking the required third child’s bedroom desperately needed for their newly expanded family. StudioLAB aimed for a fluid open-plan layout in the larger public spaces while creating smaller, tighter quarters in the rear private spaces to satisfy the family’s programmatic wishes. 3 small children’s bedrooms were carved out of the rear lower level connected by a communal playroom and a shared kid’s bathroom. Upstairs, the master bedroom and master bathroom float above the kid’s rooms on a mezzanine accessed by a newly built staircase. Ample new storage was built underneath the staircase as an extension of the open kitchen and dining areas. A custom pull out drawer containing the food and water bowls was installed for the family’s two dogs to be hidden away out of site when not in use. All wall surfaces, existing and new, were limited to a bright but warm white finish to create a seamless integration in the ceiling and wall structures allowing the spatial progression of the space and sculptural quality of the midcentury modern furniture pieces and colorful original artwork, painted by the wife’s brother, to enhance the space. The existing tin ceiling was left in the living room to maximize ceiling heights and remain a reminder of the historical details of the original construction. A new central AC system was added with an exposed cylindrical duct running along the long living room wall. A small office nook was built next to the elevator tucked away to be out of site.

This long sloping yard is accessed via an elevated terrace off the kitchen walkout over the garage. Custom stairs lead down to the yard's three levels, an upper lawn, pool level and cabana level. A dramatic sheer descent waterfall accents the deep end's elevated pool wall which is ideal for diving. The natural flagstone decks are softened by lush planting beds while the custom cedar fencing provides privacy. (16 x 40, custom rectangular)

The pool’s large tanning shelf is the perfect place to relax in the sun and offers the cooling benefit of dipping your toes in the water. With access to the spa being via the tanning shelf, users only need get their ankles wet. The glass tiles of the spa extend down the exterior wall to the bottom of the pool creating a sculptural look.
