Original Toronto Star caption: Artist Robert Bateman at work in his studio surrounded by a clutter of books, papers and sketches, above. On the easel is a painting entitled Orca, depicting a herd of killer whales, the most incredible, magnificent animal on the planet, says Bateman. Right, Robert and Birgit Bateman, with young sons Christopher and Robert Jr., enjoy the autumn view from the deck of the family home. Bottom left, during-room windows look out on woods and a small tea house, built to obscure the view of a distant building. Bottom right, Robert and Birgit relax overlooking the rolling countryside.

      Circular Bed is where Savo Bojicie likes to lounge, spread out his papers and do lots of his creative work. The large bedroom area is designed like a small apartment where Savo and his wife can escape from the children and be alone. The bed has subtle light flowing out from underneath and it makes you feel as if you're floating in space, he said.
