Course: ARCS 4105 Instructor: Eric Archambault
Housing and site revamp proposal in the Deerfield neighbourhood of Ottawa, Ontario. Presented to the Minto Group.
Summary:
Focusing on multi-unit housing, BAS majors collaborated to redevelop large urban sites, covering urban design, site planning, programming, adaptive reuse, and community consultation. Students produced detailed building designs, emphasizing systems and envelope design, integrating structural, mechanical, and electrical considerations. The “triple bottom line” principle guides choices, addressing architectural questions through site analysis, program development, master planning, placemaking, and the logic of construction.

The “Ma. Maw Centre,” which translates to “all together,” provides an engaging experience for visitors to gain knowledge the heritage of Indigenous communities. The building integrates the cultural legacy of the First Nations community by utilising the distinguished compass symbol from Ottawa’s railway station to signify Indigenous territory and their distinctive method of orientation. The integration of this symbol within the architecture and design of the building serves as a focal point, drawing in visitors and promoting interaction with the surroundings.
