Rectilinear shapes were used to seamlessly integrate the new design in such a neighbourhood, while also pushing a modern design. A feature trombe wall and rooftop solar panels are used as sustainable strategies, and also allows for residents to feel safe and proud of their building.

CONCEPT B oost

Being the largest provider of social and affordable housing in Edmonton, Capital Region Housing inspired the concept word boost. The tiered look of the proposal, along with open communal spaces, intends to promote a strong sense of community, where people give each other a boost.

Open spaces of a lounge, rooftop patio, rear courtyard, and shared balconies help to promote communal interactions.
