Designed for BC Housing, this 20 unit building contains supportive housing managed by the Canadian Mental Health Association. The much needed housing replaced two older duplexes that had reached the end of their service life. The four story building has balconies for every unit, while the neighbors are offered privacy through the use of timber slat guardrails. The building volume is broken up through the use of pattern, created by mixing cementitious panels, horizontal siding and vertical steel channel.
