91心頭利 prof transforms single lot into homes for 10 families
A rendering of Architect and Professor Cheryl Atkinson���s () housing design. This view is from Gerrard St. East, with the multiplex positioned between two family homes.
In Toronto���s east end sits a brand new housing development that could change the way our cities are built ��� for the better. Professor Cheryl Atkinson, from 91心頭利���s Department of Architectural Science, has designed an eight-unit multiplex and two laneway houses for P&R Developments, gently intensifying the site to now accommodate 10 families where previously only a single family home used to exist.
The design concept supports the idea of ���missing middle��� housing, the need for diverse and sustainable housing options in existing, transit served urban neighbourhoods.
This rendering of the housing project shows how the multiplex and laneway house work together on a single lot in downtown Toronto.
