OASIS - GREEN ADAPTIVE REUSE HUB
Role : Design, Visuals and Drafting
LOCATION: Mississauga, Ontario
PROGRAM: Commercial, Residential
COMPLETED: ARCH 34231- Summer 2025
The Oasis is conceived as a serene yet vibrant urban intervention—an architectural response to the need for a balance between density and livability. Drawing inspiration from the natural elements of water and greenery, the design weaves together lush landscapes, calming water features, and light-filled spaces to create a refreshing contrast to the surrounding urban fabric. At its base, the building fosters public life through active commercial frontages in the form of a plaza. Above, residential units are elevated into the light, framed by generous glazing and green buffers that enhance privacy while maintaining a visual connection to nature. Vertical stacking of uses maximizes the constrained footprint, while integrated planters, green roofs with water features, and water-inspired materials echo the project’s biophilic nature.
THE SITE
1150 Lorne Park Road
Nestled in a well-established Mississauga neighborhood, the site offers a unique blend of residential charm and accessibility to local amenities. Surrounded by mature trees and situated near schools, parks, and small businesses, it provides an ideal canvas for a context-sensitive development. My project responds to the site’s suburban fabric while introducing new spaces that enhance livability and support community engagement. Embracing sustainability, thoughtful massing, and walkable connections.

Architectural wall details are the essential components that bring a building’s design to life, bridging aesthetics with performance. These details illustrate how walls are constructed—showing the relationships between materials, structural elements, insulation, air and moisture barriers, and finishes. More than just technical drawings, they ensure a building is durable, energy-efficient, and visually cohesive. Thoughtful wall detailing addresses thermal bridging, weather protection, and sound insulation, while also reflecting the design intent through textures, depth, and shadow. Whether it’s a rainscreen system, a brick veneer, or a curtain wall, each wall detail tells a story of craftsmanship and precision. In architecture, great design lives in the details.
