David’s House in Toronto Home Magazine

May 1, 2013/in News /by admin

“Modern With Soul” is Toronto Home Magazine’s aptly titled feature on David’s natural modern home. In their Spring 2013 issue, Toronto Home highlights everything from David’s design inspirations (i.e. Wright’s Prairie House style) to his design philosophies to his passion for hockey.

The creative title “Modern With Soul”, coined by writer Silvana Longo (@laselvaoscura), could be interpreted in a variety of ways. It describes the contrast of clean modern lines against warm, rustic elements. It speaks to the essence of the project, a family home with custom design details unique to David, his wife, and twin daughters. It may even be a slight reference to the modern piano room; a juxtaposition of the traditional grand piano, ultra-modern Barcelona bench and cool Abbey Road artwork (photographer Philip Castleton captured a great shot of this on page 31).

Toronto Home not only captured the essence of David’s natural modern design, they also highlighted the personality behind it. Thank you Toronto Home for introducing David and his natural modern design to your readers.
