Glimmer House: Merging Victorian and Nautical Aesthetics in Toronto

Introducing the Glimmer House, an innovatively redesigned residence by Kilogram Studio located in the heart of Toronto, Canada. Serving a modern family, this home accommodates a couple, their large dog, and frequent long-term guests in a seamlessly adaptable space.
