There are many things that fascinate us about Victoriarsquos West Queen

West domicile As always we are envious of any-body who can keep her space so organized And Victoriarsquos art collection is simply amazing (more on both of these points later) But what keeps us revisiting this turn-of-the-20th-century home in our minds is how easily everything flowsmdashgood food refreshing drinks and lively conversation are as much of the structure of the house as the walls and floors

Some of the good vibes emanating from the house were there from the start Victoria found

lsquoThe front window has its original old glass which is so beautiful when you look through itrsquo

it about 10 years ago ldquoI wanted a house that faced westrdquo she says ldquoand I wanted to be near Trinity Bellwoods Parkrdquo She heard that a friend had a sister who wanted to move ldquoWe did the deal privately over a glass of wine at the kitchen tablerdquo Victoria says ldquoIt was the best possible way to make a huge decision That kind of per-sonal transaction is very rarerdquo

As soon as she saw the place Victoria knew she wanted to open up the back elevation to the west - facing light Every space has creative potential she says but when you look for a home ldquoit defi-nitely helps if there are interesting existing histori-cal details to work withrdquo In the case of the main floor the original builder had used plaster and lathe to make a curve where the walls join ceilings to help direct heavy smoke from the rooms when people burned coal to heat their homes

One of Victoriarsquos favourite things is the assem-blage that sits above the Crsquoest Assez picture ldquoMy boyfriend makes these amazing pres-ents for me He has a farm and picked everything that was bloom-ing on the day of my birthday and turned it into this piecerdquo

covetgardencom 13

Victoria also stuck with simple and mostly natural materials for the surfaces

and a basic colour palette This simplicity also af-fects her lighting choices ldquoLight is an important element and at night sometimes having my fire-place going with a few lit candles is enoughrdquo

She considers the ground floor of her home to be the public space She works at home teaches and is active in the community ldquoI like spaces that are flexiblerdquo she says ldquoI had a meeting with a client here today and we did a great fundraiser this past spring in the backyard for my roof garden projectrdquo

At the same time she says ldquoI donrsquot want my whole house to be a work spacerdquo On our second visit we also socialized with Victoriarsquos friend and fellow landscape architect Joe ldquoVictoria has fantastic dinnersrdquo he says ldquoIn the late fall we eat outside and move back in for cocktailsrdquo

ldquoThere are a lot of different rooms in this space even though itrsquos a big open-concept planrdquo Joe says ldquoAnd everything opens up into the backyardrdquo

lsquoNow that Irsquom working from home Irsquom more aware of the space at different times of the dayrsquo

Which is another design superpower that Victoria possessesmdashthe ability to understand that the rooms and the objects and people who inhabit them all relate to one another In the bathroom for example a crimson-hued rug draws the eye down to the marble-edged detail of the tub

Upstairs the space is more private but no less wel-coming In the front is

Victoriarsquos bedroom Again the room is spare and uncluttered We asked her for tips on how to create such a fresh space She just shrugged and said ldquoThis is just how I live It kind of has to be this wayrdquo Then she adds ldquobut bookshelves storage space and a big basement helprdquo

Here as well she tried to preserve as many of the buildingrsquos features including the original floors

Victoria started working from home last January She quickly settled into her

office by installing some familiar objects The double-dropleaf desk was a gift from her grand-parents The lamp came from the Queen Street shop INabstracto The bookshelves feature a collection of books on art design and plants We actually stopped to smell the pages of a 1950s- era first edition of Landscape for Living the seminal tome on early modernist California design by the

American lansdcape architect Garrett Eckbo And guess what Books smell terrific

The office is part of an extension that Victoria added when she moved in It was important that the front and back of the house employed a dual-ity in both the built architecture and the garden design Through the office window a much-loved catalpa tree watches over her while she works It also provides shade and privacy ldquoOn the sum-mer solstice the flowers are as big as your facerdquo

Inspired by the planting vessels on Victoriarsquos rooftop garden we have come up with four simple steps to convert a plastic storage bin (such as those by Rub-bermaid) into a planter suitable for any deck patio or yard

These bins are avail-able in a range of

CONTAIN YOURSELF

Easy Growing Organic Herbs and Ed-ible Flowers from Small Spaces by Gayla Trail Save some green by growing your own foods year-round This guide features unfussy plants and ideas for fitting containers into your existing space

Small-Space Container Gardens Transform Your Balcony Porch or Patio with Fruits Flowers Foliage and Herbs by Fern Rich-ardson For urban dwellers with limited real estate this book teaches design basics and plant choices that prove you donrsquot need a yard to garden in

sizes are durable and are simple to convert into vegetable planters Most vegetables need at least a 5-gallon container to thrive in though yoursquoll need to use larger containers for growing multiple vegetable plants Small containers are suitable for many herb plants and are used the same way as the larger storage tubs

Four steps to converting a bin into a planter

1 Drill several holes into the bottom and about an inch up the sides of your bin for drainage

2 Line 15 of the bottom of the bin bottom with river rock for additional drainage

3 Fill the bin with soil and add plant seedlings

4 Top with mulch

Tip Choose opaque light-colored bins as clear and dark-coloured ones heat up more quickly which may damage plant roots
