Canada House was originally purposed as the home of Team Canada during the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. Designed by Nick Milkovich with Arthur Erickson, the low-lying towers prominently feature on the coastal shoreline as a pair of duelling fish scaled forms set against the rippling foregrounded waters of False Creek. The complex is composed of buildings flanking the east and west edges of a sunny, central courtyard. The fish scale silhouette is generated by the gentle rotation of each floor upon one another in conjunction with glass and stainless-steel cladding. Since 2010, the complex has served as a residential building.
