Modern Triplex

Situated in the Grandview Heights neighbourhood of Vancouver, this jewel of a home was the first home on the block to push the envelope by melding density and architectural beauty into a detached home with a separate suite, backed by an auxiliary laneway home.

Taking advantage of the site contours, the architectural firm of Nick Bray Architecture put their best forward to create the best site lines for the end user.

Constructing this home was a fun challenge for our firm as we utilized Structural Insulated Panels (SIP) to construct the outer shell. The inner walls and roof were insulated with 2 lb spray insulation, creating an air-tight home of energy efficiency.

Among its accolades, this home was awarded the following:

  • Built Green Platinum Certification
  • Ovation Award Winner: BC Housing Award for Excellence in Innovative Housing Choices
  • Ovation Award Winner: Best Townhouse/Rowhome Infill Development
  • Georgie Award Winner: Best Multi-Family Townhouse Development (Infill)
  • Georgie Award Finalist: Best Multi-Family Kitchen – New
