This is the beautiful Cascade House designed by Paul Raff Studio in the conservative Forest Hill neighborhood in the City of Toronto. The family home is composed of a series of volumes stacked on top of one another. the home is clad in muted black slate and covered in large expansive windows to let the natural light inside. the home is two and half soterys and is designed in an l-formation around an outdoor swimming pool. the orientation of the home and its windows was particularly set to maximize sun exposure. the heavy use of glass is best exemplified by the 13-foot front window made from 475 vertically stacked sheets of heavy, jagged-cut glass. The center of the home is accented with a black slate wall that is perforated with windows, running through each floor.


Paul Raff employs experts in architecture, development strategy, landscape, and interior design. From small house additions and pavilions to large international scale developments, his studio works closely with clients creating projects where art becomes life.
