Calgary, Alberta
This is an elegant condominium development concept, and is one example of our sensitive urban in-fill housing work. Being new to Calgary, Spanish developers Montecanal Group wanted to make a statement in the local real estate market. The original design of this 13,627 sf. condo building needed some rethinking. So in 2011, together with Hribar Design Group, we designed a four-story, nine-unit residence with a price tag of $3.3 million. Signature features include a dramatic glass entrance with a striking red chandelier hanging from lofted ceilings that catch the eye of passers-by. It would be a truly charming residential address and landmark in one of Calgary’s trendiest suburbs. The site is perfectly situated on 10th Street NW in Kensington Village, with a strong street presence and a clear relationship to Riley Park across the road. The concept also features enclosed heated parking; rooftop gardens; and high-end boutique interiors that accommodate posh, modern executive living close to the downtown business core.
