Ontario houses
Whalon Bay Cottage, Ontario / Altius Architecture
The Whalon Bay Cottage is both thoughtful and purposeful in its design. It is a tribute to a long legacy of cottaging in Muskoka that is slowly but surely becoming a year-round destination, especially given recent world events.
Lake of Bays Cottage, Muskoka / Altius Architecture
A longtime client of Altius Architecture, the owners of this residence started looking for a cottage home in 2007. After four years exploring Ontario cottage country, they purchased this property from a colleague but immediately began to doubt their decision. However, this doubt quickly melted away after they had spent their first summer there.
Fairleigh House, Toronto / Studio AC
Located just off a busy retail/commuter street in Toronto this house was conceived as a simple architectural proposition. A box with one simple spatial gesture that attempts to refine quite common social orientations within the home.
High Park Residence, Toronto / Batay-Csorba Architects
The design of the Pacific project is born from the homeowners’ values and traditions where the comforts of their past are now viscerally felt within their present-day lives.
Muskoka Modern Prefab Cottage / Altius Architecture
This one was water access only, and was installed from the lake side. There was an existing cottage on the site, and after consulting with the municipality and using some site sensitivity we decided to grandfather the location of the existing building. So after removing the old cottage, we replaced it with this new bunkie on the same site.
Big Rideau Lake Cottage / Altius Architecture
Situated on a west-facing 5.58 acre building site on the Rocky Narrows with over 250’ of frontage on Big Rideau Lake, this year-round vacation home was designed to be a modern, sustainable home that fits into the surrounding landscape.
Crestwood Residence, Ontario / Ancerl Studio
Crestwood Residence is located on the boundary line between Barrie and Oro-Medonte in Barrie’s coveted North Shore neighbourhood. The home is situated on a sloping hillside with mature hardwood trees overlooking the northern shore of Kempenfelt Bay.
