Projects

This project for the Self Storage Depot is a significant regional resource with nearly 500,000 sf in both phases of development. The high density of use resulting from a 5 storeys plus sub-grade utilization deploys an innovative circulation system for the loading areas which are internal along a one way directional route. This internal space is a two storey high utility area allowing for large vehicles and enclosing all of the loading bays internally, protected from the weather and away from the city streetscapes. This also maximizes the on-grade storage unit count to increase the value of the leasable space. Designed with insulated precast panels, curtainwall, brick veneer towers and conventional steel structure. To be constructed via a Construction Management process.

This four-storey self storage building is a virtual zero lot line development in east Vancouver fronting Clark Drive. It is extremely efficient in space utilization and resolves significant challenges in planning this light industrial use in direct proximity to a residential neighbourhood. It is a very minimalist and modern building design well suited to its urban context. The principal materials are insulated metal panels, conventional steel construction and curtainwall.

This five storey urban self-storage facility occupies and very compact land parcel and provides high visibility from a significant retail and industrial neighbourhood. This is an owner built project utilizing conventional steel and precast panel construction Curtainwall is used to allow view into the building as part of the marketing strategy.
