West Vancouver, BC
Client: Private
Under ConstructionSite:
An
approximately 0.6 acre site with a modern style renovated dwelling
located in a residential neighborhood in West Vancouver. The site
slopes steeply on the south side to a cul-de-sac and the view opens up
onto the Burrard inlet.

Problem Statement:
To
create integrated usable outdoor spaces adjacent to the house which
relate to the site while reconnecting the site to the southern
cul-de-sac.
Design Solution:
We
worked with the client to create spaces with different characters in
the landscape with connections to the indoor spaces. A small bamboo
garden with water features on the north side of the house was designed
to be more intimate and meditative in character. A more active outdoor
space was designed on the south side of the house which includes the
outdoor seating area on the patio, a vegetable garden, builtin BBQ,
outdoor pool and seating area by the fi re pit which is connected to
the pool deck. An entry from the cu-de-sac to the site was designed
with series of stairs up the south yard.
