Located in the scenic Township of King, Toronto, 28 Charles Street exemplifies modern design excellence—both inside and out. Our design team collaborated closely with the clients to fully understand their vision, program requirements, and conceptual goals, ensuring a tailored and thoughtful approach at every stage.
As a full-service architectural firm, we are deeply committed to being involved throughout the entire project lifecycle—from initial concept development to final delivery—guaranteeing that the original vision and design intent are realized flawlessly.
Situated on a naturally sloping site, the building is thoughtfully designed to embrace and maximize the terrain’s gradient, creating a dynamic flow from the front to the rear of the property.
By employing a multi-level architectural approach, the design seamlessly transitions from the street level up to the highest point, allowing for optimal use of space, enhanced views, and a compelling spatial experience that connects all levels harmoniously.
The project began with the decision to demolish the existing structure and create a stunning new custom residence. This fresh start opened numerous opportunities to push the boundaries of contemporary design.
While retaining the existing garage level, the design introduces multi-layered living spaces above, each featuring generous 12-foot ceilings, creating a sense of spaciousness and grandeur throughout all floors. This thoughtful approach blends respect for the site’s existing elements with bold architectural innovation.
As part of the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) jurisdiction, the project faced a significant challenge in effectively controlling and guiding surface drainage from the front to the rear of the building.
Our team of expert consultants developed and implemented sophisticated, custom sediment and erosion control techniques, expertly tailored to the site’s conditions to ensure responsible water management and long-term environmental protection.
The project’s exterior and interior design reflects a commitment to architectural excellence and community integration. Working closely with the local community and the Township of King, the design harmonizes modern aesthetics with the surrounding environment.
Utilizing advanced architectural and engineering technologies, the team delivered a resilient, innovative design that respects both nature and neighborhood character.
Beyond its minimalist foundation, this proposal embraces key principles of authenticity, comfort, and luxury.
Every element has been thoughtfully crafted to create spaces that feel genuine and welcoming, while maintaining a refined elegance that elevates everyday living. The result is a harmonious balance between clean simplicity and sophisticated indulgence.
