Paula Pintos — Fri, 26 Aug 2022 18:00:00 +0000

Sitting at the foot of Vancouver’s North Shore mountains the Bridge House represents a regional adaptation to a modern aesthetic by incorporating a West Coast sensibility into its clean modern design.

Lonsdale Avenue Commercial Building / Hemsworth Architecture

Hana Abdel — Sat, 20 Nov 2021 19:00:00 +0000

The property at 1 Lonsdale has been owned by a local family for three generations. When the existing building was reaching the end of its lifespan, the family chose to use this as an opportunity to develop a new three-storey, Passive House building that would serve as a sustainable benchmark for the fast-changing Lower Lonsdale District.

Polygon Gallery / Patkau Architects

chlsey — Mon, 26 Jul 2021 18:00:00 +0000

The Polygon Gallery is the rebirth of the Presentation House Gallery, which has been a passionately independent photography and media institution in North Vancouver for more than forty years. More site-maker than site response, the building stands at the front of urban waterfront renewal where infrastructure is reimagined and culture outgrows an industrial past.

Berkley House / RSAAW

Pilar Caballero — Fri, 21 May 2021 17:00:00 +0000

A thorough mid-century interior renovation, taking a tired inefficient house with good bones to a contemporary home on another level. In a market trending towards disposable fixtures and finishes, where it has become commonplace to demolish to make way for the latest trend, RSAAW’s renovation ensured the home stayed rooted to its origin, simply adapting to perform to superior efficiency levels and to accommodate future generations of family life.

Pipe Shop Venue at the Shipyards / Proscenium Architecture + Interiors Inc

Rayen Sagredo — Sun, 23 Jul 2017 09:00:00 +0000

Proscenium worked with the City of North Vancouver to renovate the Pipe Shop Venue at the Shipyards into an adaptable and desirable community event space. On a tight budget and schedule, we sought to bring out the best in the 1940’s Pipefitter’s Building by using white paint to focus attention on the heavy timber structure (and pair well with wedding dresses!).

North Vancouver House / Scott & Scott Architects

Daniel Sánchez — Tue, 10 Nov 2015 14:00:00 +0000

The project draws from the architects and clients (two history professors) shared interest in traditional materials and respect for the original details of the house.

Houses at 1340 / Office Of Mcfarlane Biggar Architects + Designers Inc.

Cristian Aguilar — Mon, 24 Aug 2015 13:00:00 +0000

The Houses at 1340 are a set of three, modern, turnkey homes in North Vancouver designed by mcfarlane biggar architects + designers (omb) for Harbourview Projects. Harbourview wanted to increase the density from the one, past-prime family home on the property, and to maximize the site’s unique characteristics: its unobstructed city views to the south and lush ravines — long-admired by Harbourview’s principals — to the north. They also wanted to gear the project towards a buyer who wants to partake in North Vancouver’s active lifestyle and natural amenities, as well as someone who wants a contemporary design — to stand apart from the typical, north shore bungalow — but without the hassle, cost or time commitment of a custom commission.
