Neville Park by Reigo & Bauer Features Creative Geometries
In Toronto, Canada, Reigo & Bauer has created a home titled Neville Park. Designed in 2023, the house’s exterior is clad in grey diamond-shaped tiles, creating a tall, vertically emphasized form. The interior features clever geometries and strategically placed windows to maximize light and privacy.
The building?s tall, vertically emphasized form speaks to the old trees that tower over the houses as they climb up the hills either side. Its exterior is clad almost entirely in grey diamond-shaped tiles, which follow from the walls over the garage door and the roof so that the building reads as a coherent volume. A portion of the envelope is carved away on the south side, allowing space for steps to the front door, and additional windows in the sides of bays that are formed by this partial setback. These face one another, rather than overlooking the neighbouring property, and bring significantly more light into the centre of the house while adhering to zoning restrictions.
A portion of the south elevation is set back from the main facade and highlighted by white concrete boards, which extend to the roofline and also curve over the entry steps below, sheltering the access route from the front of the house. Playing with simple geometries to achieve unexpected results?a common ace in Reigo & Bauer?s hand?also occurs on the roof, which comprises triangular facets that connect the offset pitch peaks diagonally from the front of the house to the back.
