Snider House transitions from preserved Regency redbrick façade in the front to a rear contemporary glass veil.
“When architects Pina Petricone and Ralph Giannone were ready to show Jody and Julie Cash their plan for updating the couple’s 200-year-old house in Toronto, Petricone told them, “Hold on to your hats.” […] The architects were proposing a two-story cascade of clear, curved glass, enveloping the kitchen and den on the first floor and the primary bedroom and bathroom on the second. […]
To both the architects and clients, the house now represents the best of two eras: the early 19th century in front, the early 21st in back.”
