If you've spent any time in the Railtown district

If you've spent any time in the Railtown district of Vancouver, you've likely stumbled across the undeniably unique landscape surrounding the Settlement Building. ⁠
⁠
Atelier Anonymous created an "experimental design for an area between a renovated warehouse building and the sidewalk. The recycled wood (burnt) blocks recall the historic wood paving which is layered under Dunlevy Street and is still visible where the asphalt has broken away. As a reference to the local landscape, Kinnikinnick and poplars are used as native vegetation cover within the wood blocks.⁠ Though intended as a temporary work, the installation remains today with the blocks breaking down and the Kinnikinnick flourishing." – Atelier Anonymous⁠

On behalf of our Board of Directors, thank you to

On behalf of our Board of Directors, thank you to everyone who joined us last Saturday for Carmichael Salon at Ron Thom’s 1957 Carmichael House. It was a wonderful afternoon of conversation and camaraderie with fellow design aficionados, appetizers and wine, a wonderful selection of ciders from the Bowen Island Cider House, inspiring remarks from author Adele Weder and internationally-acclaimed architect John Patkau and, of course, some truly remarkable west coast architecture. While, in true west coast fashion, it rained again, it was just another reaffirmation of how beautifully this architecture is designed for our rain forest climate.

Your continuing generosity and support is greatly appreciated!

The Carmichael House is one in a collection of hom

The Carmichael House is one in a collection of homes designed by Ron Thom utilizing a hexagonal planning approach, a departure from the usual rectilinear plan. This unique approach was pioneered in Frank Lloyd Wright's Hannah House (1936) in Stanford, California; Thom brilliantly harnessed this strategy as an effective way to design homes on West Vancouver's famously irregular topography. Not only has the Carmichael House been sensitively updated for contemporary standards of living, but it is one of Thom's few remaining 30-60 houses in the region.

Other 30-60 houses include the Southworth House (constructed, 1956; demolished, 2017), the Dawson/Purdie House (constructed 1956-57; demolished, 2021), and the Case House (constructed, 1964; updated, 2022).

TOMORROW, we spend an afternoon with design aficionados at Ron Thom's 1957 Carmichael house, with appetizers and libations, remarks from author Adele Weder and architect John Patkau, and some truly remarkable west coast architecture.
