A New Home Inspired By The Verticality Of Neighboring Victorian Houses

This home is clad in pre-treated kiln-dried wood siding to exude warmth and texture, while a prefinished standing seam metal roof adds a contemporary element.

NEO Architecture Inc. has shared photos of a contemporary home they completed in Ontario, Canada, whose design was inspired by the verticality of neighboring Victorian homes.

The extruded gable form is a tribute to the architectural motifs of the past while blending it with modern elements to create something for today’s living standards.
