The owner of this Beaconsfield village property wanted to convert the existing 600 square feet garage into a two story one-bedroom laneway suite. The design process was complicated by the non-compliance of the existing building with Toronto Laneway Suite by-laws. Creative Union had to come up with innovative ways to design the new interior without touching the existing façade and openings.

Despite its size this tiny home is a comfortable space with clear and minimalist lines. Every feature of the design has a function, whether it is a hidden cabinet or part of the stair/shelf structure. The project is a perfect example of Creative Union’s ability to engage and utilize all the spaces and create a useful, living interior.
