The Brief
Redesign a 2,150 sf penthouse apartment to accommodate a multi-generational family in the heart of downtown Vancouver.
A few simple gestures opened up the living area while reconnecting the space with breath-taking views of the surrounding mountains, oceans and city.
Multiple Personalities
As a gathering place for extended family members who work and travel around the world, the flat is fitted with all the transitional conveniences of a boutique hotel, and the welcoming atmosphere of returning home.
The linear plan flows fluidly from one space to the next, while a variety of intimate spaces are carved out so that family members can be alone when needed.
Materials & Finishes
A restrained palette of white oak, matte black, frosted walnut and Venetian plaster creates a grounded backdrop for enjoying the ever-changing landscape of familial life.
Custom Furniture
Haeccity Studio Architecture Inc. collaborated with award-winning industrial designer Ko Júbilo on the design of the entry bench and dining table, which provide a sense of permanence and playfulness. Made locally in Strathcona's Makerlabs, the solid walnut table features an inset quartz lazy susan, our modern take on the traditional Chinese banquet table.
