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 Self Storage Depot project is a ground breaking development with perhaps the highest density of any new built self-storage project in Canada. Currently planned to be 6 storeys tall in two phases developed vertically, this storage tower concentrates the use on the main level and allows an additional storage capacity below grade. The principal materials are curtainwall, spandrel glass, insulated precast paneling and exposed concrete. Various features on the principal eleva!ons contribute to the ‘cultural’ requirements at the City of North Vancouver. To be delivered via a Construction Management process.

This two phase development establishes an engaging and playful exterior design which is at once attractive and memorable making this self-storage facility a recognized destination in the town of Squamish and in the region. The warmth of wood grain combines with the strength and durability and security of tilt panel construction.

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.

Scope: Architectural Design Services

This three storey storage facility in Mission, provides a dual orientation. One to the access street and the other to the regional highway artery on the other side. This tilt panel construction project utilizes a playful distribution of ‘glass box’ elements on the highway frontage making its use clear visible from a significant distance. This project was delivered via the Design Build methodology.

This first phase of a two phase self-storage development in the City of Abbotsford fronts on a busy thoroughfare and promotes its business via a minimalist, elegant glazed façade showcasing its use to the street. The project was procured via a Design Build methodology. It is planned on a rigorous 5×5 modular grid resulting in significant utilization efficiency. Principal materials include concrete tilt panels, curtainwall and profile metal cladding.

The Kelowna Self Storage project is a mini-storage development with a total of 10 buildings constructed in 2 phases. The buildings are single-storey concrete tilt-up buildings.
