Mount Pleasant Infill House
The challenge we took on with this infill in Calgary's Mount Pleasant district is fitting a three storey house within the 8.6m height limit, and yet still having grand living spaces within. We achieved this by stacking the kids bedrooms, the office, and the living room at the front of the house, each with 8' ceilings. However, in the back of the house, the master bedroom has a 10' ceiling, and the great space, which includes the kitchen, has a soaring 14' ceiling.
