One of the four main corners in the town of Hespeler, this former house of ill repute is being transformed into a hip open plan apartment for a young couple, with a ground floor retail unit. Beneath 120 years of bad renovations lie beautiful buff brick walls and plank pine floors, which will be refinished. A minimalist design, with only one wall added, a kitchen nested into the underside of the stairs, and using shattered and trapezoidal forms derived from the oddly shaped footprint. Green and non toxic materials used throughout
