Feature Docs. Short Films. Interviews. Lectures
Modern Art. Architecture. Design

Our Stay Home:Watch This compilation of feature documentaries, short films, interviews, and lectures about modern art, architecture, and design has exceeded 100 titles! Even as our communities begin to carefully open up to a new normal, it will still be important for us to stay closer to home than usual, and so we will continue building on this work. There are plenty of more films on the way so check back often

Link in bio for the list of films. Have any films that you would recommend to a friend? We want to hear from you. Email or DM us with the title and link to the film

An integrated extension to the restoration was sensitively placed immediately to the northeast of the original Pratt House. Constructed of heavy timber and cement-board, the space opens up through large glazed sliding doors onto an elongated pond pulling focus out into the surrounding landscape

A back-lit fibreglass panel, constructed of cardbo

A back-lit fibreglass panel, constructed of cardboard, polyester resin, and epoxy mediates the edges of the main entry, sleeping area, kitchen and dining spaces. The design of the panel was a collaboration of Ned Pratt and Ron Thom, with a colour palette devised by BC Binning, all while the three were working together on the BC Electric Building in Downtown Vancouver. For those familiar, you will see similarities with BC Binning’s tile mosaics on the BC Electric Building (The Electra)

You can find both projects on our website under “Places”

A cozy fire, for those grey rainy days on the west coast, in a modernist home that was designed as an architectural testing ground for practical, affordable, and accessible building methods for young aspiring families ⁠
⁠
This is the Pratt House designed by Architect Ned Pratt, of Thompson, Berwick & Pratt, built for his family in 1951. In 2010, this home was beautifully rehabilitated and extended by his son, Architect Peter Pratt ⁠
