Laneway House

After a lengthy permit process, our first laneway house is under construction. Compact but efficient, the project contains 500 square feet of living in addition to the single car garage.

Andrews House: In Progress

The foundation walls are poured at our latest Point Grey house. It’s difficult to tell by the pictures, but the forms are massive!

Next up: suspended slab podium with infinity pool.

West 9th House

The second West 9th Avenue house is moving along well. The exterior envelope is just about complete, with the cement board and custom aluminum trim flashing installed. The limestone tile has been installed in the ensuite shower room.

Final design renderings are done for a new custom house in Vancouver. The upper two floors of the house sit on a concrete podium that forms a level base on the steep slope of the site, and creates a firm boundary for the extent of the building footprint. Two independent volumes are connected by a steel and glass structure, allowing for deep natural light penetration into all areas of the house, while helping to minimize the overall massing. Space flows horizontally, and steps down gradually from the south to north volume, following the natural slope of the site. The main level of the north volume contains the living, dining and kitchen areas, which connect seamlessly to the patio and swimming pool that form the roof of the concrete podium. Sliding glass doors completely open the interior to the patio space, offering an extension to the living space in the warmer weather. The swimming pool frames the north end of the patio, and its infinity edge results in an uninterrupted and reflective frame to the forest and views beyond.

Construction is scheduled to start in October.
