Four thoughtfully designed residences to inspire your home in retirement
MONTREAL, Que. (14/05/2023) - Caitlin Phillips, her partner Mikkel Paulson, and their daughter Margaret Paulson pose for a portrait in their solarium in their home in Outremont on May 14, 2023, in Montreal, QC. The Solarium was a whole new addition on the roof of their home. Phillips and her partner hired ADHOC Architectes to help make an addition to the century home that they purchased in Outremont. Keeping the original home, ADHOC worked with the family to make the home more accessible, particularly in the details. Building an elevator in the home, an uneven countertop space, accessible faucets and oven, and a custom made shower space are all details that had to be taken into account and tweaked while building and renovating the space.
