A sustainable home with all the bells and whistles
The next time you’re driving along Holland Street West in Bradford, Ont., take a hard right at sculptor Ron Baird’s shining, kinetic dragonfly, and drive past the big pond. And just like Mr. Baird’s sculpture is hard to miss, since it’s perched atop a nine-metre pole, the house in question, just off Summerlyn Trail, recalls a famous Sesame Street song, One of These Things (Is Not Like the Others).
Indeed. Hiding in plain sight among the unnecessarily complex roof shapes, pediment-topped garages with oculus windows and columned front porches, 8 Downy Emerald Dr. is a horse of a different colour.
