THE LOFT YALETOWN BOUTIQUE HOTEL

Vancouver is a constantly growing major city in western Canada, located in the Lower Mainland region of British Columbia. With its breathtaking natural attractions, business, active nightlife, and cultural activities, Vancouver is on the list of places to go for many travelers, whereby, it lodges many different types of tourists.

After a site and cultural study, a boutique hotel is to be designed. Located on the edge of Yaletown, a historical commercial and industrial neighborhood in downtown Vancouver.

Yaletown was zoned in 1920 for commercial and light industrial use. It was until the late 1970s and 1980s when young urban professionals discovered that Yaletown’s old warehouses were convenient, inexpensive, and attractive transforming and adapting Yaletown into a trendy social, and livable area.

Most of the hotels in the area are big chain hotels leaned into a more high-end luxury lifestyle. The Loft boutique hotel is designed and planned to attract and serve a specific group of visitors which necessities are not currently fulfilled by the hotels in the area.

The Loft is a trendy and reinvented option for young adventurers and on-the-move travelers. Potential guests are mostly looking for a casual trip without losing the commodities and facilities a business or family hotel may offer. The hotel would be ideal for people on a weekend getaway as well as for people traveling around BC. The design goal of this project is to make the hotel experience one more reason for young travelers to come into the city.

To accomplish that, the hotel offers a wide range of activities, from an international cuisine restaurant with live music to a private karaoke and game room.

BRON ANIMATIONS BURNABY OFFICES

BRON Animations is an animation company focused on high-quality-length animated films with headquarters in Burnaby, British Columbia. Their work environment is casual and emphasizes teamwork. They define their team as skilled individuals in all aspects of animation from design, modeling, rigging, and lighting to visual effects.

The company really values and cares for their crew, they provide different types of social events since those keep the crew excited and active, helping them to develop different skills behaving under the motto of “work hard and play just as hard!”. As part of the BRON culture is very important to celebrate their team and thank them for their contributions and dedication so they do monthly activities to thank the crew.

The goal of this project is to design a headquarter office that expresses and communicate BRON values and lifestyle through colors, materials, finishes, and design while providing an efficient and adaptable plan that fulfills BRON’s space necessities.

The approach for this project is inspired by a futuristic concept, having as key points motion and movement. The goal is to make the crew feel as if they were inside an animation itself, enhancing creativity and ideas. BRON is not a usual type of office, whereby, the new facilities are not meant to be common either.

LADURÉE PASTRY HOUSE KITSILANO

Laduree is a unique luxury pastry house founded in Paris that first opened as a bakery in 1862. A fire in 1871 created the possibility to reinvent themselves, so they opened again as a pastry shop/tea toom.

The brand carries lots of social and cultural history with them since they are pioneers in their field.

The decoration of their first renovated pastry house was assigned to the famous turn-of-the-century painter and poster artist, Jules Cheret. Inspired by the painting techniques used on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel and the Garnier Opera House, Jules Cheret added depth and relief to the ceilings, which notably influenced the brand’s “angelic” graphic identity.

This new store is located in Kitsilano, a very trendy neighborhood located on the West Side of Vancouver, along the southern shore of English Bay. Kitsilano attracts people of a wide rank of ages, from families, teenagers, and young adults to adults.

The goal of this project is to create a welcoming layout that allows clients and employees to enjoy the space. The above, by providing them with the necessary rooms and facilities to accomplish an efficient use of space.

This new location aims to bring a little bit of Paris to Vancouver by celebrating Laduree’s legacy and history. The interior design of the store is warm, delicate, and luxurious, serving, like the original store, as a safe place to gather and enjoy their varied list of macarons, cakes and pastries, tea, chocolates, and confectionery

RESIDENTIAL HOUSE

For this project, a house that fulfills the necessities of a young and artistic family has to be designed.

The family consist of a couple of designers, an architect, and a painter, and their 3 children. The older son is 16 years old and he is driven into music and sports. He is currently taking singing lessons and plays the drums. On the other hand, his 12-year-old twin sisters enjoy making art together and share similar interests like painting and writing.

Both parents work from home. The mother needs a studio inside the house where she can work on her projects and store all her materials, while her husband needs the basement to be the architecture office for his six employees and himself.

The purpose of this design is to create a comfortable and welcoming living space that showcases the family’s taste. As mentioned before, considering the amount of time the family spends inside the house, comfort is key. All the materials ad furniture pieces fulfill the family’s needs in matters of space, style, and efficiency.
