An Oblique Perspective: Woodbine Heights Modern – Northwest 10

Northwest 10 is a programmatic response to site and light. Situated in the evolving Woodbine Heights neighbourhood, the residence introduces a new geometric language to the community’s traditional streetscape. The home’s entire mass is rotated precisely 10 degrees off the cardinal grid, a subtle but powerful shift that fundamentally reorients the living experience.

This deliberate angularity engages the building in a constant dialogue with the sun, capturing morning light in the open-concept living spaces and casting dynamic shadows throughout the day. The offset creates a series of unfolding interior vistas, where sharp, clean lines guide the eye through interconnected zones for living, dining, and retreating. It’s a design of geometric purity, where a single, bold decision informs every surface, corner, and view, creating an unapologetically modern home that is both a machine for living and a tranquil sanctuary.
