"Open Auditions: Abramson Teiger\n\nCanada\nA Bold Exploration of Traditional Divisions Raises the Roof on a Light-Filled House in Toronto\nFor clients outside Toronto, California firm Abramson Teiger played with the traditional registers of a house, layering materials on the fa\u00E7ade to delineate volumes and surfaces.\nFor the open-plan kitchen, 3rd Uncle Design chose Bulthaup cabinets and a Franke sink.\n\nSee more Kitchens \u00BB\nThe centerpiece of the sunken living room is a seamless 16-foot saltwater aquarium. An onyx-clad wall shimmers above the tank. Lighting by Moooi.\nThe indoor pool is almost a continuation of the aquarium. Terrace lounge furniture from Dedon.\nOverlooking mature trees and landscaping by Mark Hartley, the master bedroom catches morning light. The clients favored large windows throughout the house. \"It was quite a feat,\" says Trevor Abramson. \"It gets to be minus-19 degrees outside.\"\n\nSee more Bedrooms \u00BB\nThe residence sits on a heavy stone base, rooted to the earth. \"The second floor is free of the base in plan,\" explains Abramson. \"It follows the profile of the soaring roof above. The house lifts to the sky.\" Viking grill, at Abt.com."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
