Scarboro is one of Calgary's most established residential communities — mature trees, wide lots, and an existing built fabric of genuine character. The Scarboro House earns its place within this context rather than ignoring it: a contemporary form that is confident in its own language while remaining respectful of the scale and rhythm of the street.
The home is organized as a series of connected volumes that step slightly in plan to reduce apparent mass and create moments of outdoor amenity between them. The primary material is chosen for its durability and its capacity to age with dignity. Inside, the spatial sequence moves from public to private in a legible progression, with the most generous spaces oriented to the protected rear garden.
