Modern Love

A downtown Toronto house and its front garden work together to offer a clean-lined, current look

Produced by Catherine Therrien
Words by Laura Muir

##THE INSPIRATION PALETTE## **1** Maiden grass (*Miscanthus sinensis* ‘Gracillimus’) is a soft, airy element that plays off the house’s linear architecture. **2** River rock in the front yard’s dry stream is organic and textural. **3** Stainless-steel accessories complement the house’s clean, contemporary style. **4** A dwarf American cranberry bush’s fresh green summer colour offers a living contrast.
