受传统商铺住宅类型的启发，梅约克住宅位于一楼，上面有住宅，他谈到了多伦多城市结构中的单一家庭住宅的另一种选择。与这种混合使用物业有关的具体挑战包括：狭长的地段、主要街道和后车道的噪音和隐私问题、建筑物中央缺乏照明，以及与室外缺乏连接。

Inspired by a traditional shop house typology of commercial on the ground floor with residential above, Mjölk House speaks about an alternative to the single-family residence in Toronto’s urban fabric. The specific challenges pertaining to this mixed use property include : a long narrow lot, noise and privacy issues to the main street and rear laneway, lack of light to the middle of the building, and lack of connection to the outdoors.

MJ lk House展示了如何以当代的方式对一座地标性建筑进行翻新，同时仍保持尊重，并与街道的物理特性保持一致。庭院和轻型水井被用来提供隐私，户外空间，自然光和空气，并允许莫约克住宅成功地适应城市中街区的选址，在那里没有传统的前院或后院。通过创新的设计，这座城市商店的房子展示了一个独立的建筑和业主如何能够为充满活力的街道生活和社区复兴做出贡献。

Mjölk House shows how a landmark building can be renovated in a contemporary manner while still respectful and in keeping with the physical character of the street. Courtyards and light wells are used to provide privacy, outdoor space, natural light and air, and allow Mjölk House to successfully adapt to an urban mid-block siting where there is no traditional front or rear yard. Through innovative design, this urban shop house exemplifies how an individual building and proprietor can contribute to a vibrant street life and neighborhood rejuvenation.

MJ lk是一家独立的设计商店和画廊，代表了斯堪的纳维亚和日本的设计师、艺术家和工匠。提供精心策划的设计精美的作品，Mj lk专注于功能，工艺和永恒的简单。在Mj lk House中，Mj lk和上面的住宅都受到北方美学的启发，那里的材料调色板是有选择性和克制的。由于主人重视手工制作的物品，木材被整个商店的房子使用，因为它无与伦比的温暖和与自然的联系。以这种方式，木材的个性是值得庆祝的。

Mjölk is an independent design store and gallery which represents classic and current Scandinavian and Japanese designers, artists and artisans. Offering a carefully curated selection of beautifully designed pieces, Mjölk focuses on functionality, craftsmanship and timeless simplicity. In Mjölk House, both Mjölk and the dwelling above are inspired by a Northern aesthetic where the material palette is selective and restrained. With owners that value handcrafted items, wood is used throughout this shop house for its incomparable warmth and connection to nature. In this manner, the individuality of wood is celebrated.

在Mj lk，黑白元素用木头的瞬间突出。木材因其天然的保暖性、通用性、便携性和预制性而被选中.设计、建造和安装的时限缩短了。采用计算机建模和数控切割相结合的方法，对特征墙、浮动C架和储存柜的胶合板单元进行了复杂的曲线拟合。这与传统的手工木工技术相结合，例如加工回收木材的接待处，以及白色橡木滑动屏风门。可持续的特点包括外部包覆炭化木材与天然油的完成。

In Mjölk, black and white elements are highlighted with moments of wood. Wood was chosen for its natural warmth, versatility, ease of portability and pre-fabrication. There was a condensed time frame for design, construction and installation. Computer modeling and CNC cutting were used for the complex curves of the plywood elements of the feature wall, floating c-shelf and storage cabinets. This worked in conjunction with traditional hands-on woodworking techniques, such as the crafting of the reception desk of reclaimed lumber, and the white oak sliding screen doors. Sustainable features include the exterior cladding of charred wood with a natural oil finish.

在内部，主要特征墙是重新使用以前的安装，增加了新的存储单元。包层材料是横切的：遗留在木头上，通常被放进垃圾箱和垃圾填埋场。接待处是从多伦多当地一家工厂回收的道格拉斯冷杉。屏幕墙框架是FSC批准的白色橡木，玻璃重新使用现有的结构玻璃隔板。

For the interior, the main feature wall is re-purposed from a previous installation, with the addition of new storage units. Cladding material are offcuts : left over wood often relegated to the waste bin and landfill. The reception desk is reclaimed Douglas fir from a local Toronto factory. And the screen wall frame is FSC approved white oak, with the glass re-purposed from existing structural glass partitions.

在Mj lk住宅，用来组织和加强住宅的设计元素是庭院、自然光和木制品。白橡木整个厨房，岛屿，橱柜和浴室，楼梯，警卫和装饰。板条门，双折叠门和固定窗户，包住内部庭院和光线良好，也是FSC批准的白橡木。宽木板道格拉斯杉木来自不列颠哥伦比亚省是用于地板和起居室搁置单位。

In Mjölk House, the design elements used to organize and enhance the dwelling are the courtyards, natural light and woodwork. White oak is used throughout for the kitchen, island, cabinetry and bathrooms, stairs, guards, and trim. The slatted doors, bi-fold doors and fixed windows that wrap the inner courtyard and light well are also FSC approved white oak. Wide plank Douglas fir from British Columbia is used for the flooring and living room shelving units.

在整个设计和施工过程中，我们一直在努力思考和有效地使用材料和技术。庭院和轻巧的驱动设计允许大量的自然日光。双折门、遮阳窗和室内光线在夏季利用自然交叉通风系统。

Efforts have been made throughout the design and construction to thoughtfully and efficiently use materials and technology. The courtyard and light well driven design allows a large amount of natural day light. The bi-fold doors, awning windows, and interior light well take advantage of a natural cross-ventilation system in the summer.

加热和冷却由可调散热器和无导管空调区域组成.在这个当代的空间里，有很多手工制作的木材和传统饰面的实验。磨坊通常用肥皂片、碱液或水性清漆来完成.庭院的外部装饰包括在粗糙的松树上涂法轮漆，以及在砖墙上洗石灰。

Heating and cooling is organized by zones with adjustable radiators and ductless air-conditioning. In this contemporary space, there has been much experimentation with hand crafted wood and traditional finishes. Millwork is often finished with soap flakes, lye or a water-based varnish. Exterior finishes at the courtyard include falun paint on rough pine, and a lime wash on the brick wall.
