RSAAW adds double-height library during Vancouver home renovation
Canadian studio RSAAW has renovated a mid-century house in Vancouver to include a double-height library, all-white interiors and a treehouse in the garden.
The project, called Berkley House, is a two-storey house with a dark facade surrounded by trees in North Vancouver.
The walls and ceilings have been painted bright white
Local firm RSAAW transformed the family home into a bright and airy space by connecting its previously separated two levels and painting the gallery-like interior in white.
A slanted roof features large skylights that emphasise the central atrium space of the open-plan ground floor. Prior to the renovation, this level was a mortgage helper suite.

Arsenic is more common in wells near fractured bedrock in southeastern Wisconsin
Wells located near ancient folds and fractures in the bedrock beneath southeastern Wisconsin are more likely to contain arsenic, a dangerous contaminant in drinking water, according to research just published by the Wisconsin Geological and Natural History Survey.
The findings come from an ongoing survey of the extent and causes of arsenic contamination in groundwater in eastern Wisconsin. By better predicting where arsenic will be found, the project could help municipalities and private well owners relocate or redesign wells or prepare to filter out the arsenic, which can cause cancer if ingested over time.

Architect Murray Barker and artist Esther Stewart renovated this two-bedroom 1960s apartment in Melbourne using colours and materials that pay homage to the original mid-century interior.
When the clients bought the walk-up apartment in the Australian city s s Brunswick neighbourhood, it had been empty for 20 years and still had original decor including linoleum flooring, carpets and salmon-pink walls.
The owners wanted to retain its character while updating the living spaces to suit modern life.
Built in 1961, the 65-square-metre apartment is split into two zones with a living space and kitchen at the front on either side of the entrance and two bedrooms on either side of a bathroom at the rear.
