Visit to RDR 22 Years Later

Richard’s home is more than 22 years old. He requested a flat roof design and during the design development we corresponded via Bell Canada’s Envoy 100 communication link, years before the invention of Internet! My office was in Edmonton and Richard was in Ottawa! The design process took more than 3 years! And the construction took about 8 months! Richard and Danielle had total faith in my process!

For security the home is set back into the 3.5 acres site with only the garage visible from the street.

The family room, breakfast nook and kitchen (main floor, right) receive the morning sun. Computer study, adjacent to the entry porch, (active work area) is the first to see approaching visitors, while the upper floor bedrooms gets the setting sun.

The dining room, adjacent to the kitchen, gets a view to the outdoor deck and enjoys easy access to the living room…
