Integral House [Toronto, Canada]
The Unique Canadian House
The two-storeyed Integral House located near to countryside of suburb Toronto (Canada), belongs to Dr. James Stewart (the Canadian professor of mathematics, famous violoncellist). The Canadian architectural studio «Shim-Sutcliffe Architects» became authors of the project of the unique house.
From Curvilinear Exterior to Curvilinear Interior
The top part of a building is created as a translucent structure with glass facades. The bottom level consists of strong oak walls. This variety of the vertical glazed apertures and the natural oak's exterior cover is a maximally harmoniously integrated into a natural Canadian landscape.
The passion of the client to «curves» was a starting point for design of the future house. These curvilinear interior details with doubled integrals and unusual architectural corners provide to the Integral House the unique spatial form penetrating all architectural project. Besides it, for a house interior the furniture from the legendary manufacturer is used.
Definition «the frozen music» — the fully describes this unique country house. For this reason all elements of exteriors and fragments of interiors perfectly sounds in the general symphony of an interior and appearance of the wooden Canadian house.
The main place in the house is the concert zone in which simultaneously can arrive more than 150 persons. At top level the dining room and a drawing room which is carrying out also function of theatrical balconies.The house is designed taking into account power of innovative architectural technologies and the good acoustic characteristics necessary for the ideal sound effect of a violoncello. Thus, it's possible to declare with confidence that a home renovations are the innovative architectural standards of housing construction.

North America: Archaeologists say climate change is destroying Arctic artefacts
Archaeologists say climate change is destroying the historical record of the Arctic people. The artefacts being received by the University of Alaska Fairbanks’s Museum of the North are more deteriorated than those unearthed decades ago, curator and professor Josh Reuther told KUAC, and he attributes that to the changing climate.

“It’s kind of a whole series of problems coming together at the same time to sort of create a perfect storm,” said Max Friesen, a University of Toronto archaeologist working on a dig in Canada’s Northwest Territories.

Friesen said he’s alarmed by the rapid deterioration. Until recently, he said, organic artefacts made of materials like wood or animal hides, were abundant around the region because they were preserved by permafrost or silty soils.
“It’s a very rich data base that’s being lost all across the Arctic,” he said.

Heritage: Permafrost thaw threatens Arctic archaeological sites
Climate change is threatening archaeological sites in N.W.T.'s Mackenzie Delta, says University of Toronto professor Max Friesen. Pingos in N.W.T.'s Mackenzie Delta are unmistakeable evidence of permafrost activity
in the soil. University of Toronto professor Max Friesen says thawing permafrost
due to climate change is endangering archaeological sites in the area
[Credit: Karen McColl]He says thawing permafrost is endangering sites and artifacts dating back thousands of years.
"Instead of having the archaeological remains and the houses and whatnot being stable, they're actually eroding out of the cliff face," he said.
"As you walk along the beach, you can actually see all the artifacts, animal bones, and even pieces of houses that are slumping down the slope and will eventually wash out into the ocean."
Friesen says researchers need to act quickly and prioritize which sites should be excavated before their contents are destroyed.
