quebec street

new build | riley park

Located along a quiet street in a vibrant neighbourhood, this new, single-family residence is set amidst areas of abundant sunlight and deep shade. To the west, a partially open courtyard serves as a transitional space, welcoming air and natural light into the heart of the home while seamlessly connecting the front and rear gardens.

Supple cables provide support for select courtyard vines, allowing them to gracefully ascend to the second floor, adding vertical interest and charm.

With a deliberate focus on restraint, the landscaping approach emphasizes minimal hardscaping and a thoughtfully curated selection of plants, creating a lush yet understated backdrop that evolves with the seasons while ensuring privacy from passersby.

These warm-season grasses age gracefully and stand proud until mid-winter, when they are cut back to make room for spring bulbs.
