This original David Osler mid-century modern home, built in 1963, got a lot of things right. With glass box forms that project along the rear of the home and frame a spectacular view of hill and woods - it somehow fits perfectly into the landscape.
The original outdoor deck, however, suffered from a lack of appeal as an exterior living space and did not create an interior connection to the outdoors. In addition, the area underneath the deck had a brick wall in front, which created a dark cave underneath that was prone to moisture & mildew. The entire area was tired and uninviting.
