Brief
In general we think of buildings as being very stable structures that take over the area surrounding them becoming the defining feature in their particular context. However, they’re more dynamic than we give them credit, both literally and figuratively.
Insight
The houses that we’re about to look at feature unique designs with all sorts of unexpected elements in their designs. Things like huge windows and doors, dynamic facades and kinetic systems that change their appearance and composition in real time make these projects truly special.
This is a house located in Toronto, Canada. Most of the time it looks like a regular modern home with full-height windows and glass walls that connect it to the beautiful scenery and big open interior spaces. What sets it apart from this type of houses is a 40 foot glass wall that folds open and brings the interior and exterior living spaces together in a matter of seconds.
This extraordinary design was created by the wonderful team of architects and designers at Ancerl Studio who managed to make this house come to life in an unexpected and very creative way. The folding glass wall delineates the living and dining room from the outdoor lounge area.
