Planning: Proposed Senior's Housing Project

Working a fine balance of health inspired-environmentally responsible land use planning while achieving maximum site use, this 2.5 acre proposed senior's housing project has a gentle terracing strategy accessing views while providing lots of pedestrian thru-ways.

Tendon on the Landscape

The first vertical erection on Trevor Street. Pre-fabricated steel is flown using a medium-sized crane onto concrete piers and bolted in place; efficient and strong. Now known as 'Little BOB', a reference to Nelson's 'Big Orange Bridge' which is a framed viewed by the Carport uprights. This structure will serve as both a construction staging area and eventually a carport with studio office within the framed struts below.

An amazing project that is both an art project and an adaptive performance architecture precedent. Nestled in the trees in downtown Smithers, this passionate project has been the brain child of an amazing Owner and the intense dedication of an excellent builder. Spending time on this site is like stepping into a forest rich with discovery and marking time at a much different speed than the world surrounding it. This project tells a story that many will find to be compelling, educational and enriching: stay tuned for details.

Christina Lake Arts Centre: Ribbon Cutting and Dignitaries Tour

August 6th, the CL Steering Committee and Artisans invited the core government dignitaries to the Welcome Centre and Solar Aquatics Buildings. Although the building is not ready for occupancy, the building was filled with natural light and refreshingly cool. It will be a wonderful and life-filled center-piece for this great community very soon.

Truscott Farms, Creston BC

This project involved a major renovation to an old warehouse building once used as a fruit stand and farmer's supply store. Programming included a contemporary and welcoming design for a fruit stand and a grower's supply store.  The turn-around time on this project from inception of design to construction completion was just over 2 months.
