Pink House & The Octopus Salon: An intimate afternoon at MA+HG’s 2020 Pink House & The Octopus
VANCOUVER: Completed in 2020, the Pink House & the Octopus stand as a gleaming example of a modern/heritage hybrid restoration with a contemporary infill befitting the historic eclecticism and multi-cultural fabric of its Vancouver neighbourhood. Designed by MA+HG Architects, with landscape by Hapa Collaborative, the project undertook to restore and modernize a century old character home while creating “Missing Middle,” multi-generational housing. A total work of art for an art-aligned owner in an artistic community, the home has been dubbed the Pink House & The Octopus for its historical reference to colour and the multi-limbed series of intersecting infill dwellings along the laneway.
On June 8th, the West Coast Modern League invites you to join us for an exclusive opportunity to explore MA+HG’s 2020 Pink House & The Octopus, to engage in conversation and camaraderie with fellow design aficionados, and to enjoy appetizers, wine, and cider from the Bowen Cider House. Guests are encouraged to arrive early to catch remarks about the project from architects Marianne Amodio and Harley Grusko, as well as landscape architect Joseph Fry.
Pink House & The Octopus Salon is a fundraising effort of the West Coast Modern League. All funds raised from the event will support the League’s ongoing public programs and initiatives. We thank you for your generosity.
