Tuxedo Park Duplex

Tuxedo Park, Calgary

Designed for an inner-city neighbourhood

Two complete homes within one balanced residence.

The Tuxedo Park Duplex brings two mirrored family homes and two secondary suites to a compact Calgary site. Each principal residence has open living spaces on the main floor and three bedrooms upstairs, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and ensuite.

The paired front gables give the building a clear residential scale. Arctic white and iron grey fibre-cement siding, black detailing and warm wood accents create depth while keeping the overall composition calm and cohesive.

Design priorities

Increase housing choice without losing residential character.

01

Two homes, one composition

Mirrored planning and paired front gables create a balanced street elevation while giving each residence a clear entrance and identity.

02

More useful living space

Each principal home is supported by a separate basement suite, making efficient use of the inner-city site.

03

Respect the neighbourhood

Familiar roof forms, durable siding and a landscaped front setback give the duplex a contemporary but contextual character.
