– The client: I need a “toy store to store toys”
– ji study: “We create a space that EVERYTHING IS A TOY !!”
The project is intended for the youngest clients we have had:
3 and 5 years. These mini-clients do not demand great needs, only places,
spaces, colors and imaginative experiences.
That is why we decided to make the leap of designing the furniture that we were commissioned
to make a “mega furniture” that in itself is the toy and also
The toy box.
We had a very interesting volume in one of the bedrooms of
a building built in the 40’s where we obtained the great advantage and
opportunity to have a height of 4 meters free.
This mega-furniture is based, in its concept, on a poplar wood fold
that surrounds the space and creates volumes according to the places we wanted
give them:
– beds in line with nest beds below
– stairs
– yellow play tunnel with hemispheres and networks
– benches
– blackboards on walls and furniture
– fun and sliding chairs
– A desk table representing a sun
– Lights like moons or stars
– High and low storage
In short, it is a space if a specific purpose, timeless
and with the values ​​of IMAGINE, DISCOVER, INVEST, UP, DOWN,

They can paint or customize your furniture or walls
They can write or save
They can watch or play with their hands ….

A self-initiated, architect-led design-develop-build project, Tesseract house was not designed with a specific client in mind. Rather, it was conceived as a business case to prove that one can create great contemporary architecture that fulfills a demand in the marketplace, while demonstrating that unbridled creativity generates innovative and artful spaces, using conventional and readily available construction methods. All of this was accomplished without breaking the bank and with a typical budget for a house of this kind Located in Toronto’s western lakeside streetcar suburb, this single-family residence proves contextual while owing little to convention and serving as the antithesis to recent vernaculars. By simply and unconventionally engaging the immediate context this contemporary alternative has an impactful, yet unimposing outward presence. This geometry and the depth of experience from which the house derives its name is not provocatively innovative but nuanced, both simple and complex, revealing itself over time. All of this within the constraints of conventional local residential construction, the Tesseract House unapologetically desires to be more than just a place to live.
