ROBSON SQUARE Reactivating the Cultural Heart of Downtown, Vancouver, BC Robson Square as it is lacks visual cues to encourage pedestrians to stay, this is exacerbated by the site elements that cause complications and confusion in understanding circulation through the site. Physical limitations in accessibility is also problematic for a site
Retrofitted lobby space, to allow visual connection at the street level
that is intended to be the cultural heart of the city. Vancouver Art Gallery intends to relocate and with this inhabitant change, the project becomes an endeavour to reprogram the space through porous cultural programming.
Series of colonnades to direct major circulation routes with vertical changes
This concept acknowledges the fact that Robson Square is very much a site where many people traverse through and the intention is not to attract all of these pedestrians, the motive is to create architectural elements that will respect the spectrum of temporal uses of the site.
Incisions to the underground to allow visual connection between ground level and underground Conceptual collages of free exhibits that offer a glimpse of what the Museum of Vancouver has to offer as the new occupant of the building.

MOCC An Experience of Temperate Seasonality, Vancouver, BC an abridged version: thesis project, April 2015 Seasonality was once a habitual part of how we inhabit and occupy spaces. And in a society where we increasingly spend our lives indoors, the acceptance of mechanically controlled interiors has eroded our understanding of, and inherent connection with our immediate climate. How do we begin to reintroduce ourselves to the seasons again? Rather than highlight the characteristics of indoors versus the outdoors, can the transition between indoor and outdoor be reimagined as active and habitable spaces? Continued reliance on controlled indoor environments mutes beneficial elements essential to maintaining wellbeing. Opportunities to encounter natural phenomena should be integral with human activities in an effort to foster a sense of place and connection with the surrounding context. A healthy environment should be accessible, welcoming, and stimulating.

COMMUNITY ENERGY EXPLORER www.energyexplorer.ca, Vancouver, BC a CALP team project, web development by Dave Peacock
Imagine a neighbourhood where efficient homes generate energy and share it with the community. Imagine a walkable community, with local services and convenient access to transit in a region that uses renewable energy resources instead of fossil fuels.
This website provides a set of tools for exploring community energy. The following is a snapshot, the website was designed to be experienced in its entirety to promote interactivity.
