Superkül Designs the Ridge House in Grey County, Canada
Amy Duong — May 1, 2025 — Art & Design
Toronto-based design firm Superkül has created the design of a gabled home dubbed the Ridge House in a forest space in Grey County, Canada. It is defined by a monochromatic color palette with attention to the building's roofline. The house is set lower than the road's site as the eastern facade is obscured by the topography.
The aforementioned roof is made from metal peaks from the horizon. Meg Graham, partner at Superkül, told Dezeen "The topography enabled us to experiment with a design in which the house itself becomes an extension of the land. The clients were thrilled by the prospect of an exaggerated roof that is at once the home's most defining and deferential feature."
