The Little House - Toronto's Smallest House.
2008-08-08 20:10:00
The Little House - Toronto's Smallest House.It's quite easy to miss the house at 128 Day Ave. It has a living area of just 300 square feet which was never meant to be actually a home at all. It was built by Aurthur Weeden in 1912 on a narrow strip of land that the city forgot to turn into a proper driveway. During the street's development, Lot 128 was supposed to be the laneway for the neighboring home. But when Old City Hall didn't cut the curb to allow vehicular passage from the street, Arthur Weeden decided to build a home in the existing space. Over the years, several different families inhabited the house and there were quite a few renovations and improvements. In the recent times too this house was for sale; with just under 300 square feet on a lot 7.25 feet (2.2 meters) wide and 113.67 feet (34.6 meters) long and was sold for $135,000 during the month of April 2007. Again at the end of 2007, it was back on the market with a price tag of $179,900 with some up-gradations an...

Curtain Wall House.
2008-08-07 19:20:00
Curtain Wall House .Curtain Wall House by Japanese architect ShigeruBan is the house intended to be a reflection of the owner's lifestyle. It's located in a dense neighborhood of Itabashi-ku, Tokyo, and was completed in July 1995. The house is a combination of new and old with simplicity and use of the contemporary materials keeping in view the traditional Japanese styles. Terrace on the first floor divided the living area on the east and south sides, creating an outdoor space that acts as a filter between the interiors of the building and the street and tent-like curtains are on the outer facade between the second and third floors. In winter the outside glass doors and the curtains can be closed completely giving the house needed good insulation and privacy.
