"Restrained, rigorous" palette enhances Toronto penthouse by GH3*

An all-black kitchen stands out against the otherwise white and concrete interior of this minimalist Toronto penthouse, designed by Canadian studio GH3*.

The 153-square-metre (1,650-square-foot) duplex condominium in downtown Toronto is located in an early 2000s building, which GH3* stripped back to its bare essentials.

The team revealed the original cast-in-situ concrete structure, and used a pared-back material and colour palette to create a "refined backdrop" for the owner's art collection.

"The space is reinterpreted through a restrained, rigorous logic that highlights the inherent beauty of its construction," GH3* said.

Tristan Burfield adds bushfire-resilient annexe to coastal holiday home in Australia

Architect Tristan Burfield used a palette of galvanised steel and Blackbutt timber to meet bushfire regulations at No. 23, a small annexe he has added to a holiday home in Australia.

Located close to Eagle Rock on Victoria's southern coast, the annexe provides additional sleeping areas for a larger holiday home on the site, which is set among bushland, surf beaches and limestone cliffs.

Burfield used what he termed an "agricultural" palette of timber and galvanised steel for the design, leaning into the area's mandatory bushfire design requirements rather than viewing them as an obstacle.
