RE: CLADDING TORONTO’S SKYLINE: METABOLIC DEVELOPMENT UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO TORONTO, ONTARIO As Toronto continued to become denser and denser, the development of residential towers began to raise unethical problems for the users. Unit sizes became non-sufficient, the performance of these assemblies was inferior, and specific building assemblies required frequent maintenance. The city of Toronto continued to have a gradual increase of units every year. However, with this new type of “luxury” lifestyle, the demand for these shoeboxes continued to rise significantly. As more units were being constructed, the average size of units started to decrease. The median sized unit delivered between 2016 to 2017 is 39.53% smaller than those made during the 1990 peak. As of 2019, 40% of people live in low rise while 60% live in a high rise. It is also projected that Toronto will have the most high-rise condominiums in the world very soon as young single professionals between the ages of 25-35 prefer the downtown core as their desired location to live. As well, amid COVID, these unit types became more troublesome. According to the Financial Post. “Tiny Condos are now the biggest losers in Toronto’s real estate market.”

With the rise in the current condominium development, this thesis explores the number of carbon emissions of a traditional, contemporary condo, explicitly focusing on aluminum, and the various possibilities to reuse and recycle the metal to credit the building’s carbon emissions. By reusing the material, new spatial and architectural opportunities are improved.

THE CRYSTAL THEATRE UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO TORONTO, ONTARIO The design of the Theatre for the Port Lands is a new landmark that will be an anchor point in a new cultural path in Toronto that will draw visitors from the city down to the Port Lands. Our design takes strong reference from the site setting and cultural development of Toronto. The desgin builds on the language of connecting the public and the private throughout the entire experience of a theatre.

The Crystal Theatre will house various forms of entertainers beginning with dancers, opera singers, actors and many more.

Located on the edge within the Port Lands, the views towards the city and the water became a tool to organize the masses of the building. The two larger masses represent the theatres, while

In plan, the building takes on a crystal-like form comprised of four different masses. The communal gathering space becomes the main focal point for the overall structure, while the two theatres site beside the main area, with grand views towards the water and the city skyline.

47 THE CRYSTAL THEATRE

The exterior finish of the building consist of a four faced prism-like module. Consideration to natural light and visual comfort is heavily controlled as the prisms on each facade are selectively placed. Within the west facade, the facade becomes transparent near the bottom while it slowly progresses to become opaque.

The prism panels provide essential acoustic baffling for internal walls, and for acoustic ceilings.

49 THE CRYSTAL THEATRE

The type of HVAC system chosen for the theatre is the variable air volume system (VAV). The variable air volume system is an excellent system for serving facilities with occupiable interior spaces, because a VAV system can be designed with an air side economizer to provide winter cooling to the interior spaces without having to operate the chilled water plant.
