One significant emerging construction typology is mixed-use commercial development. My 3rd semester project is to design a mixed-use commercial development on Bowness 46th Street in Calgary that is classified as MU-2, with FAR -4.5 and height restrictions up to 22 m. My property was a corner plot, which has a total area of 1782 m2 and a total buildable floor area of 8000 m2. The parcel is in a busy street that had undergone an area development plan proposed by the city of Calgary. My proposal includes a 2-story commercial complex with ground-floor units designated for commercial purposes and the top floor designed for office uses.

The project’s total area is approximately 2100 m2. The design rational for my project was based on the redevelopment plan proposed by the city, where the focus was given to promoting a sense of community and creating spaces for gathering and social interaction. Keeping this in mind, my design was involved around the concept of having good gathering spaces and interaction areas that can help boost footfall into the commercial units and also provide an interactive space for the tenants using the office space above. At the moment, the project is in the schematic design stage, where I tried different approaches or layouts to implement my design with the concept.

One significant emerging construction typology is the mixed-use residential building. My project for the second semester is to design a mixed-use residential structure on Kensington 19th Street in Calgary that is classified as CN-1. The property has a 563.659 sq. m total size with FAR – 1 and a height restriction of 10m from grade. The residential and commercial markets in Calgary are flourishing, which makes a mixed-use building design along 19th street Kensington, which is closer to SAIT and other educational institutes, and downtown Calgary, a viable option. This neighborhood could drawstudents looking to rent studio apartments as well a working-class residents and has a high likelihood of producing successful commercial establishments.

The site’s placement between two other commercial properties on each side was a significant design problem since it made it difficult to provide cross ventilation for the residential flats. I have attempted to give a bigger commercial area by minimizing circulation space, taking into account the market value that commercial spaces receive more rent per square foot compared to residential apartments. This has been taken into consideration when designing every conceptual designs.

For our capstone project we’re focused on documenting the development planning drawings for the “Francesco’s Mixed-Use” urban project by DAAS Architecture and turning them into a complete set of construction documents. Along the way, we’ll be adding elements such as a 3D model, renderings, detail sets, material planning for both the interior and exterior, and much more. The modelling and construction plans, and details will be done usin Revit and we plan on using Lumion for detailed renderings. We plan to explore drawings that we haven’t yet been able to in previous semesters, to name a few, floor finish plans, slab plans, much more in depth stair plans, window installation plans, and many more. Additionally, we plan to use the mindful materials website for finding materials that meet our sustainability goals. This project is particularly exciting for us because it’s not just about the technical work, it’s a chance to explore creative solutions to late stage design problems and learn new skills from a challenging design.

We decided to pick this project due to its complexity and the opportunity it offers us to document a mixed-use design unlike the members of our group have worked on previously. The process of combining multiple types of residential units and commercial elements all into one development won’t be easy, but it’s a great way to build our skills and think about how architecture can solve real-world problems.
