From directors Ryan Mah and Danny Berish (Outside

From directors Ryan Mah and Danny Berish (Outside In), and producer Leah Mallen (Coast Modern), comes an exciting new documentary film capturing the life and work of pre-eminent Canadian architect Arthur Erickson. Beauty Between the Lines delves into the life and work of Arthur Erickson, a visionary architect first in Canada and ultimately throughout the world. With intimate interviews, unseen archival footage, and an exploration of his architectural masterpieces, the film weaves together the complexities of Vancouver-based architect's personal and professional life. It reveals a man who transcended traditional boundaries, who fused art, culture, and nature and in the process, redefined modern architecture.

Beauty Between the Lines will debut to Vancouver audiences on November 6th, during the ADFF:Vancouver Opening Night at the Hollywood Theatre, and again on November 9th and 10th at the VIFF Centre.

🚨 Completed in 1962, the Charles G. Brown Memorial Pool was designed by Blair Macdonald, then of McCarter Nairne and Partners, in Burnaby. In late 2022, after 60 years in service, the building was closed, and earlier this year it was demolished to make way for a new aquatic centre and arena.

Last night saw the Vancouver launch of a new publication featuring contemporary adaptations of West Coast Modernism reflected through the modern residential projects of BC-based architects.

"Decades after gaining international recognition through the work of practitioners such as Barry Downs, Arthur Erickson, and Ron Thom, the West Coast Modern style remains widely celebrated and highly influential for residential architects in British Columbia and beyond, even as its expressions evolve and adapt to contemporary contexts. What are the contours of its legacy today—and has a new regional style emerged?

Clinton Cuddington invited dozens of B.C.-based architects to share residential projects that exemplify their design process. Their responses range from palatial mountain chalets to cabins sitting lightly in the forest to oceanfront retreats to sensitive urban renovations. Each house is presented through full-colour photos and accompanied by short essays by curator and critic Michael Prokopow that draw on visits to each house and interviews with the architects to elucidate the many aesthetic and programmatic accomplishments on display.

As Prokopow details in an incisive essay, each house is necessarily also a response to the conditions of its creation, notably its site—locations include the Sea-to-Sky Region, Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, Southern Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands, and the West Kootenays—as well as its social and cultural context, and so is revealing of modern ideas about home and family, leisure and vocation, ecological concerns and communion with nature on Canada’s West Coast.

With thoughtful, deeply informed prose and over 300 captivating photos, Reside is an absorbing and inspiring tour of some of the most exceptional houses in the country, and a portrait of how the unique character of the region is expressed in built form." – Figure 1 Publishing

Reside: Contemporary West Coast Houses is now featured in the League's Resources section.

In the late 1960s, architect Roger Kemble ventured

In the late 1960s, architect Roger Kemble ventured away from the regional modernist influences of his early career, designing a series of “coloured box” houses in Vancouver and on the North Shore, projects that would garner attention both locally and with national audiences. Exploring the use of plywood as both a sheathing membrane and structural stressed skin, coated in a neoprene hypalon sealer, and finished in a vibrant palette of blues, reds, and yellows, among others, these homes were radically different from the predominant ideas of modern west coast design.

Meet Imu Chan, local Architect AIBC, and one of the next speakers at the League's On the Boards series on September 23rd.

Imu is a Vancouver-based architect practicing at the confluence of art and architecture. His portfolio spans personal sanctuaries, gathering places and public art. His works are marked by their simplicity, purposefulness and emotional affinity with us, often achieved by humble means and with affecting imagination.

Rejecting conventional approach to design, Imu draws inspiration from diverse sources beyond the realm of architecture, particularly films and literature. Recently completed projects include a private residence paying homage to Virginia Woolf’s To the Lighthouse, a laneway home designed from a feline perspective, and Cups – part of a group exhibit at Museum of Vancouver – that celebrates humanitarian design using mahogany harvested in Guatemala and Nicaragua.

Meet Andrea McLean, local Intern Architect AIBC and Interior Designer IDIBC, and one of the next speakers at the League's On the Boards series on September 23rd.

Andrea's design practice focuses on residential building design, interior design, and landscape design. She credits her time living in Japan, five years total, following interior design school, as pivotal in shaping her sense of place and understanding its relationship to design and architecture. During this time, Andrea became intimately familiar with Japanese life, art, culture, and language, which started her curiosity in looking deeper into how people live, and why. Since graduating from Architecture school in 2008, Andrea has been simultaneously engaged in her busy design practice and raising her two daughters, Pilar and Hana. Andrea’s projects have been frequently published and have won numerous awards including an Architizer Jury Award in 2018, and the Robert Ledingham Award at the IDIBC Shine Awards in 2022.

For Arthur Erickson, the home that he designed for

For Arthur Erickson, the home that he designed for Helmut and Hildegard Eppich was born from the landscape. "The landscape concept emerged even before the house. Part of the stream was diverted to form a small lake providing an intimate focus and to bring reflected light into the middle of the dark lot. Then a design was developed that placed the house on the worst part of the property as a retaining structure, and left the best to be enjoyed."[1] Crafted in his signature material, concrete, Eppich House I is often revered as one of Erickson's best residential designs.

Eppich House I is currently on the market in search of new residents who will appreciate and shepherd this remarkable architecture forward as the work of art that it is.
