Located in North Toronto, 534 Briar Hill presents itself as a monolithic form that is strategically carved and punctuated by glazing responding to site conditions and programmatic requirements. The most distinct and overarching feature of the overall composition is the vertical division that be read on the front elevation which wraps over the roof of the house to form a skylight spine. Not only does this distinct feature create an atrium-like condition, allowing light into the entirety of the home from the centre, it also divides the home in plan, into two – separating living space and private space.
