567 Clarke + Como,
Coquitlam, 2022

Rising from the highest point in West Coquitlam, 567 soars 49-storeys above the streets below – a new landmark as Coquitlam’s tallest tower.

Located in Coquitlam's Coquitlam West neighbourhood, and inspired by the converging angles of the streets below, the slim, the angular tower of 567 Clarke + Como is a sculptural expression in concrete and glass.

When the composition is viewed together a strong vertical glazed expression meets the horizontally glazed amenity, shifts fully to the opposite side of the tower where it culminates in a “lantern” form which has been integrated into the penthouse of the tower composition. Two types of glazing are employed to enhance this effect.

The corner vertical, amenity horizontal elements, and sky “lantern” in a flatter plane expressed glazing. When viewed in rotation, the different patterned compositions change creating a sculptural effect in the tower form. The total composition is a clean yet powerful expressive quality which is the hallmark of contemporary high tower design.

The commercial frontages have been designed in a composition of frames, planes, andglazing arranged in varying heights along street frontages. A steel supported canopy system integrated withthe commercial canopy system provides continuous louvered coverage throughout the site,knitting the public realm together.

Mirabel
Vancouver, 2023

Situated on the hillcrest overlooking English Bay, Mirabel was designed to highlight the dramatic sightlines to the West and the South.

The West End is a neighbourhood with personality and celebration, located close to cafes, bistros, parks and Vancouver’s seawall. Beautiful, old oak trees line the streets, and a short walk brings you to sandy beaches.

Envisioned by Canadian architect Richard Henriquez, Mirabel was inspired by the shape of a ship's bow. The extensive balconies were crafted for year-round indoor-outdoor living and close connection to English Bay.

Building upon his legacy in Vancouver’s West End, one that includes notable projects such as Sylvia Tower & Eugenia Place, the architecture at Mirabel is unabashedly playful, the balcony glazing reflects its proximity to the bay, and the integration of limestone gives the project an appropriate character for this area in the West End.

Tailor
Burnaby, 2024

Designed by Shift Architecture, Tailor is a sleek, twenty-seven storey tower with a sculpted base. Set back from the corner of Alpha and Alaska, Tailor is tucked away from the bustle of Brentwood Station.

The project’s public art, ‘Wind Veil’ by Catherine Widgery brings to our attention the universal patterns that surround us; how light and wind interact constantly with surfaces and animate our world with a delicate wonder.

The concept at Tailor is light and airy — the result of a lobby with forty-foot ceilings which doubles as a canvas for ‘wind veil’ along with 9’ ceilings on each floor, smart glass windows and open layouts which incorporate the abundance of natural light.

Designed with a modernist aesthetic, residents enjoy urban amenities with extensive millwork details designed to enhance daily living.
