PROJECT SPOTLIGHTS

BRITISH COLUMBIA

ALL GROWN UP

Built more than a century ago, the Kitsilano Heritage Home, located in Vancouver, British Columbia, was a single-family, then multi-resident dwelling. Now it has been transformed once again, back to its traditional purpose and glory, with a twist of modern flair.

ALBERTA

A PLACE TO HEAL

The new Arthur J.E. Child Comprehensive Cancer Centre in Calgary, Alberta, was designed with patients and their healing and wellbeing as the number one priority. In fact, early conversations pondered, “what if a building could give a hug?” Team members from every organization involved set out to make that hug a reality.

SASKATCHEWAN

A GRAND PRIZE PROJECT

For nearly a century, proceeds from The Kinsmen Home Lottery have supported the needs of people living in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The lottery’s grand prize show home has always been one of the most sought-after wins, and this year was no different as ticketholders vied for a million-dollar home with a Nordic design in a well-established neighbourhood.

MANITOBA

A VISION FOR RECREATION AND ENTERTAINMENTE

Steinbach, Manitoba’s Southeast Event Centre will be a downtown hub of activity for residents of this growing city. From concerts to curling to being the new home for the city’s junior hockey team, the centre is designed to elevate every spectator’s experience.
