MODERNest is a new design
and development company with a mission to offer affordable, architect-designed,
houses with a modern sensibility, on family-friendly streets in vibrant
downtown Toronto neighbourhoods with easy access to good schools, public parks,
transit lines and local shops.
Situated on Rhodes Avenue
in Toronto’s lively Leslieville neighbourhood, House 1 is modest and
contemporary, yet sympathetically integrated with nearby houses due to its
similar scale, setback and its natural materials. The house is characterized by
its flexibility, its abundance of natural light and its views to the outdoors.
It is framed by mature trees and the neighbourhood’s eclectic surroundings.
