PARK AVENUE 6- GREENVIEW Matthew Ferguson
My proposal is a reaction to the evolution of the site over time. Before being settled the Portland area was full of marshlands and rich nature, a condition juxtaposed by the recent history of the industrial sector. Now the area is to house residential development, and plans are in place to create manmade parks and canals. Due to my site’s location across from the southern parks, I chose to pursue a form which takes inuence from nature and topography, mimicking the gestural beauty of the landscape. I then developed a rational system in which the curved cantilevers clad in wood rest on a strict geometric layout of concrete walls and columns. The interaction between the industrial and natural site conditions becomes manifested in the building through the dichotomy between natural wood and engineered concrete, and the contrasting curvilinear appearance and linear envelope.

MIDRISE RESIDENTIAL Rawan Muaddi
Designing spaces that correspond with Biophilia principles will create built environments that are illuminated with natural light and filled with plant material that is cleaning the air and inspiring users. Biophilic design encourages human’s connection with nature, resulting in an active lifestyle, and improvements in health and productivity. The form of the building is driven by the golden ratio, a characteristic of a fractal. The laws that govern the creation of fractals are found throughout the natural world. I sought to take advantage of the surrounding site by extending the park to the project both externally and internally, blurring the definition between interior and exterior spaces. The greenery on the terraces extends to the atrium, which is climate controlled throughout the year, providing residents with thermal comfort during the winter season while giving them a sense of being in a natural environment.

The Port Lands have been Toronto’s primary industrial hub and has been powering the city for years while its value has only decreased with its usage and it has never acquired proper recognition. This “growth” is shown through three interconnected buildings. The lower bar on the south side of the block is portrayed as a continuous form which transforms into slabs and planes,and further develops into the tower which is composed of solid volumes protruding out of the core. The buildings incorporate different energy systems to create a unique identity, and educate the community: algae screens, solar ducts, and an internal atrium that connects the three buildings and encourages social interaction.

HOUSE 28 Stephanie Tung
To provide a residenital complex unique to site, this complex aims to transform the historical site programme, i.e. Toronto Harbor Commissioner, in which its duty was to monitor and regulate transportation and overall condition of the Portlands. With this background, the concept is to transform this oberservant behaviour of the old program to a living condition in an affordable housing complex that encourages healthy living through pedestiran circulation stimulated by visual insterest of different hovering comunal spaces. The complex mainly consist of families, therefore providing a lot of communal spaces for interaction amongst family members as well as between neighbours. To reect the dynamic circulation, peforated metal panels with changing sizes of holes create a visually changing facade as pass-byers walk along the perimeter of building, it also works as a sun shade for units on the west facade.

On the southern part of the site has the entrance to the retail units on the interior of the podium. There is a subtracted portion of this volume which extends the sidewalk into a public open space. The stairs connect this public space to the open terrace above. In between the two volumes there is a more private open space in which people of the units have access to. As you move up in levels, there is a series of terraces which become increasingly more private as you move up. For example, on the top floor, each unit has a private balcony, while on the first floor everyone in the building has public access to the open space. The building is clad is fibre cement panels. The darker fibre cement panel frames the vertical public to private relationship.

PORT LANDS 35/ THE FRAME Adrian Man
The primary concept is to create individual spaces which frames the Toronto city skyline as well as addressing local interaction with neighbouring communities. By integrating movement and shifting into the design as a response to the fast pace city, the mass of the building articulated into 2 components connect with 2 glass bridges. A signiďŹ cant space is the private roof garden above the podium, this community zone is a great space to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The commercial units are along the west and south side of the podium as a result of vehicular and pedestrian circulation.

26 ASHBRIDGE’S STREET Alborz Razavitousi
Lot 26 is a multi-residential building. The location of the building makes it different from downtown Toronto condos. The design and the concept of the building are based on the view of downtown Toronto and the water front. In addition, the concept is based on Toronto’s multicultural communities so it variety is shown in different sizes and scales that creates the shape of the building. The design is similar to the agora a meeting place, to help create partnerships and alliances between the people that use it, it is a community in a box, with a sense that people here are doing things they care about, have familiarity with the people they do business with, they know each other, and they live together.

LOT27 Andreh Custantin
LOT27 is a mid-rise condominium building that is primarily focused on identity, resident interaction and healthy living. The treatment of the corridor with the implementation of windows, planters, and facades further enhance the corridor atmosphere and contributes to identity and resident interaction. The owthrough units promote cross ventilation, while the generous terrace-styled balconies provide ample outdoor living space. Indoor amenities dedicated to active living are provided and consist of a pool, ďŹ tness centre and large recreational space for indoor sports. Vegetated roof-top amenities provide magniďŹ cent views to the canal and the city while receiving maximum sun exposure. The landscaped internal courtyard encourages resident interaction while providing views the adjacent dwellings.

INDIVIDUAL/COLLECTIVE Andrew Harvey
13 Park Avenue is a celebration of the individual as both a private entity and a member of a collective. Visually identifiable as both a unified modernistic expression and a sum of individual parts, it mixes private residential units with common amenities which are placed throughout the complex, and aims to appeal to the sensibilities of both private and socially minded residents. 13 Park Avenue makes compact urban living comfortable through the use of smart storage and an array of informal common spaces for residents to use both socially and individually. Atop the 2-storey podium is a whimsical “outdoor living room” and “outdoor dining room” for residents, with overhead lightingand heat lamps (suspended from cables between the towers), play areas for children, and outdoor seating areas that resemble indoor furniture typologies. Through its unified yet individualized identity and an array of informal common spaces woven into residential areas and their circulation routes, 13 Park Avenue is a comfortable place to live both on days when a resident desires to socializing with neighbours and in the moments when one wants to unwind alone after a busy day.

OVERGAAN Clive Fernandes
Situated at 16 Park Ave., Overgaan is designed to reflect the benefits of suburban life; gardens, fresh air, natural light and privacy within the urban environment. One unit’s roof becomes another’s terrace or garden. The secondary design intent is to obscure the economic differences of the inhabitants. This is achieved by units similar in appearance. Overgaan’s form is born of maximizing the potential natural light penetration into the units. The shallow units are also a result of capturing maximum natural light.

The Vertical Village Daniel Carey
The Vertical Village seeks to connect its occupants with both each other as well as the natural environment with which it is surrounded. In order to create this connection, the design takes its form around a walkable, pedestriant oriented community.This is best embodies in the community green roof ramp which wraps around the building and extends towards th adjacent park space to the south. Community terraces break up the buildings facade and creates a step-like form. The elevated pedestrian street gives a unique condition and allows the townhouses to be elevated to the third storey while still maintaining the typical street-front entrance.

SHORELINE MARKET Greer Stanier
The intended use of this project is as a co-op housing complex. The south facade is devoid of any strong indication or emphasison particular living units, while the north facade is created by the expression of the units as extrusions that protrude at varying lengths; an attempt to try and create a dynamic, interesting sensory experience without giving pride of place to any one unit. By lifting the bulk of the program off the first two floors, an accessible yet defined courtyard is created. The Space underneath the building is a dynamic retail/market space that gives the opportunity to smaller, more local vendors to sell goods and create a more pedestrian-friendly area.

PORT LANDS RESIDENTIAL Jin Won Kim
The idea is to create a tower-and-podium type condominium that offers several green spaces where residents can enjoy a space that is more private than the park and enjoy the view of both the Portland canal which is and the park that is south to the condo. The main concept was to not give only the wealthy balconies but to provide equal amenities by making semi-public terraces for all residents to use regardless of their social class. The condominium offers several rooftop terraces at different oors for a more private and enclosed space for casual lounging.

MID-RISE COMMUNITY LIVING Karen Grubb
The residential node of Toronto is very dense. As individual people, we all have our own thoughts and feelings about how we like to go about our daily routines and the spaces that interest us most. The presented proposal deals with these individual preferences of living. It is composed of a number of ‘pods’ of living types each with different characteristics to feed the imaginations of their dwellers. The living units offer a range of options from unit size to how one would go about travelling to the unit and where they may stop along the way. The entire complex is layered upon a retail strip at the street, a parking garage below, and an elevated walkway to townhouses at the back. There are several entrance opportunities into the centralized courtyard space where an aboveground, glazed pool is a gathering element for all users. As a whole, this complex controls diversity in the sense that it gives every being a fair chance at living the way they prefer while creating a sense of togetherness and community within the residents of the building. g

PORTLANDS VILLAGE Khaliq Azizi
The Portlands Village is a new way of residential living within North America. The concept is to encourage a stronger relationship between the users of the building and the public using the lower spaces. This intent drove how the spaces and functions of the building were to be. Each level on the residential units contains an outdoor space which brings the users of the building closer together. The volume and overall function of the building can therefore be interpreted as the pulling and peeling of unnecessary spaces which can be seen as psychological and visual barrier between users.

TORONTO’S “CASA delle COLONNE” Marcus Parisi
Bringing the European style courtyard to Toronto, the Casa delle Colonne serves to interact with the public and private residences stitching the city life with the life at home. Drawing those walking across the bridge into the retail spaces located on the ground floor, meandering past the landscaping and fountain inside the courtyard. People are spatially divided as the columns encircle the courtyard space. Lifting these columns draws the eye away from the intensity of the line and encloses a safe, semi private zone.

1 PARK AVE. Marta Lehzdyn
The 1 Park Ave. form derived from accounting for site conditions such as sun and shadows, wind patterns and views, while taking advantage of the corner lot. The building rises gradually from the west edge (beginning of the community of mid-rises) to meet the height of its neighboring building to the east allowing for a welcoming transition into the community. East cardinal corner has a height that decreases from North to East, and from South to West. This form allowed for a breakdown of string winds, most solar perpetration into the building, while giving the majority of units exible views of the lake as well as the city.

LOT 27 MID-RISE HOUSING Mike Mulvey
The initial idea for this project was to provide every housing unit with a view of the Toronto’s skyline. This idea was changed when the perimeter block building type was chosen. In the center of the building is a large courtyard beginning from the ground plane. To achieve this courtyard it would result in sacriďŹ cing large amenity spaces. Using stepped terraces inspired from precedents studies, this building manages to put amenity spaces on the different levels on the roof which is accessible to every resident. It brings a community closer together and providing a space for fun and relaxation.

THE BOARDWALK CORNER Samantha Turchyn
Located on the northern strip of the master plan for Toronto’s Port Lands district, lot 35 envisages the idea of creating and educating people with dynamic features in order to reconnect the community with what the site fails to include. By linking the site’s surrounding man-made qualities with nature, residents and the local passersbys will be met with a healthy green architectural environment. This design will therefore act as a clean and green filtering break from the rest of the industrial context in which the site is located and known for.

PORT LANDS MIDRISE Dana Gurevich
The idea of bringing the site up and through the project is very much a central focus of the design. Surrounded by a park, and a water front the idea of the form comes through the experimentation with mimicking the fluidity of the water, as well as incorporating landscaping into the podium, much like the park. Therefore the mid-rise brings its surrounding conditions into the building itself, as well as up into the tower through the use of the facade of undulating green roofs, which provide a sharp contrast with the white stone. The residents of this building are artists, which is acknowleged through the gallery spaces at grade level, as well as artist studios through various floors, and the “landscaped” portion of the podium which looks on to the waterfront and provides ample space for activities such as sketching. The materiality of this building is also kept very clean, and simple to act as perhaps a blank canvas, showing off the garden ribbons permeating the facade.

PIXEL BLOCK Emily Mutch
Through the analysis of different floor plan arrangements of high density housing prototypes, perimeter block apartment configurations differ with their ability to facilitate courtyard circulation. This allows for the main access zone of the apartment units to be naturally lit, and for the avoidance of claustrophic, never ending hallways. By applying different permutations of unit configurations to the apartment block, a porous quality was achieved. This alleviated the dense built periphery often associated with perimeter style blocks. The zones exterior and adjacent to the units can be utilized as voids allowing light, or as balconies. A communal courtyard operates as the core of the block, which allows apartments to be equipped with views within and to the exterior; maximizing flowthrough units for the majority of apartment layouts. The grid structure of interlocking forms also allows for a sense of unit separation from your neighbour, providing a more individual living quality within a high density block.

36 CO-OP COMPLEX Jing Yi Liang
One of the advantages of the perimeter block type is its opportunity of creating a strong contained community within the central courtyard. However it can also be a drawback to the community if it is too contained. The aim of this co-op housing is to create a perimeter block situation that’s in dialogue with the surroundings. The corners of the block is carved out to allow the activities within the block ow out of the building and into the streets, allowing an exchange of events within and outside of the building. The central courtyard within the perimeter block is being dissolved and is spread across the corners of the site. These corners become smaller courtyards that are shared both by the pedestrians and the residences of the housing.

THE MOUNTAIN Jonathan Day
The mountain is a midrise condominium that is part of the Port Lands Development. The building supports a mixed use program consisting of commercial tenants and a variety of residential accommodations. The condominium is designed to support an active environmentally conscious lifestyle; creating a sustainable community nestled along the Port Land Canal. The location The Mountain provides a unique opportunity as the surrounding waterways bound a large portion of the site; providing scenic views of Lake Ontario and the Toronto Skyline. As a result, context became a driver for the architectural expression; ensuring that each unit is privy to a view of the water and the surrounding environment.

14 PARK AVENUE Ryan Fernandes
The proposed building aims to impact the well-being of its residents by establishing a closer connection to the natural environment. With large terraces, a sensational courtyard, and amenities including a ďŹ tness centre and at grade bike storage, this is a building catered to those who live actively and have an afďŹ nity for the great outdoors. The building responds to its surrounding context in several ways. It rises gradually from the park on the south to optimize light, and it offers fantastic views of the city and canal to the north. Centrally located within the building is a lush courtyard which provides a great amenity for residents to use year round.

[LOGR]ESIDENCE CO-OP COMPLEX Shivathmikha Suresh Kumar
{LOGR}esidence is designed for middle class families. The concept for this construction was derived from a logarithmic spiral. This concept allowed for unique courtyard spaces and unique human interactions in those spaces. The logarithmic spiral concept also provides connections between residences in different storeys. This concept allowed for a unique spatial arrangement that allowed for different unit sizes to be adjacent to other unit sizes, ultimately enforcing stronger interaction between different age groups and different types of families. The stepping is derived from the “Podium with L-Shaped Tower� form. The unique interaction provided by these spaces potentially acts as a catalyst for community building within the residence.

11PARK Sylvia Rodas
The 11PARK residence was designed with a speciďŹ c user in mind, this user being dogs and their owners. The initial driver for the design was creating the opportunity for users of each residential oor to have access to an outdoor area. Through the development of this idea, other aspects of the design became essential and the exploration of visual interaction both within the interior and towards the exterior allowed for this intent to move forward into the physical design of the building. This project aims to create and react to interaction within different layers of the project.

WATCH TOWER Wang Chiu
This project was designed specifically for photography clients. The exterior facade for the pedestrian and service lane where the entrances and exits are located are the towers’ sides with the aluminum panelled “folded” wall, which interacts with the street. This subtle change that isn’t very noticable until light hits it and it creates a shadow where the fold is. The front and back towers’ walls slant back slightly as opposed to the fold as a different subtle change in order to address the different programming that take place there. There are also bridges that create a ‘focusing’ effect creating different shadows and different spaces. Lastly there are several vantages points spaces allowing different views out to the park or canal.

PORT LAND’S HERITAGE Daniel Petrocelli
The Port Lands has a rich history in industrial usage. My conceptual thought was that the heritage is celebrated in future buildings. Communities occupying the building as well as the many people passing by should be reminded of the site’s history. With reused bricks from the old buildings in the area, the facade represents the architectural impression of industrial buildings that once occupied the site. The switch in form and material in the building bring fourth that transition from brown wi `Ã Ì Àià `i Ì > ÉV iÀV > `iÛi « i Ìà in the Port Lands. The development gives the opportunity for Torontonians to engage in the new community being created; not by incubating and disengaging that community up in a typical apartment, but to involve the community with the newly re-purposed location. The location of pathways in the building encourage people to move about the building, while the retail spaces are positioned on the boardwalk to drive people up and into the central podium levels. Residences are placed in multiple ‘additions’ over the building, with alluding forms of the Port Land’s past, combined with the ‘accumulation’ of forms. With these forms, the building exhibits its multiple iterations with additions throughout the design process; paralleling the transition of the Port Lands throughout Toronto’s history.

> i } L ÕÀ ` Ì >Ì Ã w i` Ü Ì ` À Ãi ÕÃ } complexes, a person can become overwhelm with being enclosed by the height of buildings or the dramatic transition from being between two large buildings to the vast open street or water. The increase in human density in this area also raises concerns of possibilities of activity and interaction at street level. This project aims to react to these concerns by bringing the building down to the human scale as well as providing to the need for public and private spaces. A pocket of open space provides a pause in the heavy presence of housing complexes allow for and provides a transition from street to building.

TRANSITION MIDRISE Giancarlo Franzoi
The intent when designing the mid-rise residential building was to capture its surrounding views. With the location of the building located southeast of the site (23), views to the north-east of the city and to the south of the park are clear. Beginning with the perimeter block, the building is angled in a way that isolates both views and captures the essence of the setting. The building is lifted so that viewers can look past the building and are able to see a transition between the cluster of the city and the open park.

MARSH CO-OP COMPLEX Ivana DiGirolamo
The Toronto Port Lands has lent itself to many past lives. The constant state of reinvention which dictates the site’s identity has caused it to transform from a freshwater marsh to industrial parkland, and now a large housing development. The aim of this project is to capture glimpses of each of these past lives through the spatial ordering of the marshlands, while inspiration towards materiality and physical texture is taken through the site’s recent state as an industrial park. The project will signify and pay homage to these past lives of the site as it is reinvented again.

[CALM]LAND Mashroor Ishraque
The launch of [CALM]LAND will provide the Portland community with commercial needs like sportsbar, grocery store, and pharmacy; modern amenities like a pool, gym, and greenhouse; however, primarily ensures the delivery of a safe, comfortable, and blissful living experience.The goal for the [CALM]LAND project is to create a community that is in direct relationship with the context of the site. Use of views and lighting contribute immensely to realizing the residence’s potential. It is to fully understand the healthy, rejuvenating factors of green spaces on the South, and the fresh, tranquil presence of the canal on the North, thus activating programs within the premise of the property such as the Sky Pool and Greenhouse Commons as tribute to further deepen the site’s natural richness.

coTERRACE Nivin Nabeel
This housing project is geared towards individuals that are aware and willing to live cooperatively with others. Cohousing provides personal «À Û>VÞ V L i` Ü Ì Ì i Li iwÌÃ v Û } a community where residences share resources and community living. The idea of shared housing is new to North America; it only arrived in 1988 from Denmark. Through this project, the idea of sharing will be manifested through the use of shared terraces between units. These terraces will provide a beautiful link between neighbours and help bring communities together. The social interaction and shared resources varies based on the desire of the group of people who actively create their bond. The ideology in North America regarding the desire to be more practical and independent has lowered the value of sharing between communities which is very unfortunate to see. This project will provide hope to our often disassociated society and a loss of sense of community arises.

INNER HAVEN Yunhyung Kim
The premise for this project is the fact that the Port Lands’ site is a continuously developing area. Thus there will be many residents moving in and out constantly. Therefore, the aim of this housing complex is primarily to provide a place to eat and sleep, while the days are spent outside attending to personal matters. As such, a tenant’s primary motive as they return home is to retire back into the privacy and comfort of their own homes. The Ì Ûi v À Ì Ã Õ Ì V w}ÕÀ>Ì Ã Ì V ÌÀ > ` moderate the human interactions around the building to give residents an easy and swift, yet welcoming journey from the public to private. The relationship between height and privacy is a core functional idea behind the project.

ATHLETIC COMMUNITY Alex Fown
Catering to an athletic clientelle, this Residential complex fully brings out the potential between Residence and Park. Acting as an extension of the park which is just south of the block, the courtyard is open up to the street. Following the courtyard a track cuts through the residential mass to bring forth an alternate choice for runners aside from the dull at land of the park. The track cuts in and out of the building creating an experience that keeps the runner wanting more and promises to deliver all worth while views, including the Boardwalk, the Landscape Courtyard, and a different perspective of the Park. The Peak provides an step up landscape providing spaces for atheletes to take a break from whatever they need.

THE THIRD PLACE Alvin Yonatan Tanoko
A good living is not solely about having enough light or good view to every units. More importantly, it is about having a good neighborhood; a neighborhood that grows and cares. This is where the idea of the ‘Third Place’ occurs. After living and working spaces as our first and second place, a third place becomes a welcoming and comfortable public facility where community can lose themselves and relax. A “Third Place” becomes the “Anchors of community life and creative interaction” within the neighborhood. The mixed-use residential is designed aiming to tie the community together by having shared leisure and communal rooms, integrated green space, and continuity inside out.

LINE HOUSE Dana Salama
Line House is derived from the pre-existing linear relationships in the site. It draws the public through its porous podium and brings them from the water, to the park, and vice versa. The residential ‘lines’ act as suspended streets, raising the urban fabric in the air, and encouraging encounters between residents.
Porosity of the interior versus a monolithic exterior
Line House is a miniature vertical city—with a clear hierarchical relationship, always emphasizing the importance of the residence first. Those elements which are closest to the ground are given height, and direct circulation to the park and boardwalk.

27 ASHBRIDGE’S STREET Jessica Hoang Chen
27 Ashbridge’s Street is a housing block designed to suit the needs of young families, young couples and middle-aged local workers, along with a growing number of elderly people. The main goal of the building is for various and diverse implications of interconnectivity within each individual’s own social boundaries (i.e., varying levels of privacy). Because there are more young families and therefore more children and the elderly, 27 Ashbridge’s Bay is especially devoted to keeping this high density living setting as diverse and fluid (flexible) as possible. By setting rules and principles for which units in the building have extended or receded exterior living spaces and allowing a mix of these ’’semi-public, semi-private’’ spaces dictates the type of reaction from the street scape in a way that offers different types of interaction.

SOCIAL HOUSING FOR ARTIST COMMUNITY John JinWoo Han
The focus of this project was to experiment with a unique condition of living, where spaces and intended interactions are brought down in scale, whereby an active communal neighbourhood is established. First movement was breaking of perimeter block typology into nine buildings, each of distinctive characteristics. These buildings are connected through a series of horizontal connectors , where vertical masses are connected as one whole. Within the building, destination and nondestination communal spaces are spread throughout the building for random and unprogrammed events to occur. The destination programs are ammenities such as retail on ground level (supply store, paper store, ower and cafe, and bar), and a large communal workshop space. These spaces become the functional attractors of the building. The nondestination spaces include the communal kitchen, painting areas, meeting spaces, etc, which sometimes are double storeys in height creating vertical link between the tenants.

MAKARIOS Joseph Oh
The main concept driving the overall design is to create spaces of blessings; areas where the occupants would appreciate the given spaces. Two considerations were made regarding the enhancement of community life and dwellings: connection to the community and connection to the natural environment. To make this project integrate with its surroundings and its community, it was decided to provide several open terrace spaces in addition to several enclosed, double story spaces. These areas function as a hub where community gatherings are encouraged and where connections to the site can be addressed visually. OPEN + GREEN SPACES VISUAL CONNCETION NATURAL LINE OF SIGHT

MIXED-USE CONDO Jue Wang
The project is focusing on connections, connections between people, and connections between private spaces and public spaces. A community is made up by individuals, the idea is brought to the composition of the building. The community for this project is students and young families based. Therefore, creating public spaces that accommodating the needs of different groups of people is the goal. Units and public spaces are grouped together in a solid and void rhythm. The public spaces, such as the lounge, library, communal kitchen, and the gym, giving people opportunities to meet and collaborate, and the voids help create a space that is always changing. As it is getting more light and better view as the building goes up, trusses are used to allow spaces to be cantilevered to achieve better living experience.

PORTLANDS VISTA Nicola Augustin
The Portlands Vista caters to the addition of play within this live-work environment and is derived from its unique site conditions, between two bodies of water, by places a high priority on continuous views through the building to connect both waterfronts. This is first accomplished through raising the high density cores of the building up off the podium level so that the views are brought back down to the human scale. In addition to this, the podium is transformed into a rolling terrain which embraces exploration and pedestrian movement over the site as well as generating a more dynamic environment for its residence. By utilizing flow through courtyards on each floor continuous site lines through the building on the upper levels is also provided.

[in]STREET Ruslan Ivanytskyy
Within this given development a housing project was designed with an aim to provide a thriving community for small business owners. The community will be based around a mixed use building that features many live/work spaces as well as a wide variety of retail spaces that would be owned by the residents. While there are not enough retail spaces to accommodate every individual small business owner within the development, the podium is designed to function as both a market space and a lively public space. To welcome people into the podium, the main residential building is lifted off the ground to create a void in the podium which functions as a street, providing ample space for retail and circulation. The podium is comprised of an organic landscape that allows people to weave through the small businesses and explore the building. The main residential building is supported by two grounded masses that are comprised of aggregate blocks that form the live/work townhouses and owthrough units. The slab building also features extrusions from its mass that indicate live/work residential units within, drawing a connection to the aggregate blocks that support the main structure.

PEAK PLACE Ǥ ƥ
This mixed-income condominium celebrates the diversity of urban life while highlighting the “spaces between” within the dense fabric. The lower podium is physically divided, creating two components, one designated for townhouse units, and the other for retail and commercial space. Above, this division is emphasized by a curtain-wall walkway in between the two residential towers. This walkway creates a solid-void-solid pattern that grants visual access to the water conditions on either side of the site. The mountainous shape creates a natural landscape in order to incorporate nature into city life. Resting on top of the lower podium is a green space that is programmed for gardening. The residents are encouraged to grow their ownvegetables that can be sold in the marketplace on the ground level, thus forming a community within the residence.

PORTLANDS ATELIER Sarah Lipsit
The live-work studios of the portlands neighbourhood has a strong focus on the collective community, and collaboration with neighbour artists. As atypology, the perimeter block is a continuous bond linking residents together around a common courtyard. Circulation spaces are treated as gallery spaces for residents to project their work; memarquaded by a change in floor material and acting as a ‘frontyard’ within a multi-residenti building. There is always a link back to the courtyard in the centre, with communications stairs entering the void.

INDIVIDUAL HOUSING Stefan Miller
This project seeks to utlize one unit type that can potentially behave as any of the six required unit types needed. Through this individual housing the idea of what it means to be an individual is worked into this architectural type. Providing something true to its nature, the individual housing seeks to ensure comfort and an appropriate solitude/home for any individual living here.

ARTISTS’ RESIDENCE Hriskesh Tailor
The main idea here is to create a vertical neighbourhood dedicated to various types of artists. The duality that exists between “art” and “design” is taken as an inspiration. Art is expression, design is function. This idea has been incorporated, as the expression of the building provides it’s functional aspects. The large open spaces is used as multipurpose space for the community to gather and promote art. The circulation space is used as a gallery where residents’ artworks are displayed. And each apartment has indoor/outdoor space to practice their art also which can be expressed Ì À Õ} VÕÃÌ âi` ÕÛÀià } Û } Ì i >ÀÌ ÃÌ the liberty express his/her creativity.

ARTIST RESIDENCE Kiente Sanipe
The design for the mixed use residential building was based off of the bar shaped unit typology as well as the tower podium. The structure is designed to facilitate the needs of members of various artistic communities. The parti is based off of the collaborative spaces between living units. The main collaborative area is located between the towers, It is a multi-use space that serves as a centre of social interaction and be adaptable to accommodate for different activities and functions. Artistic groups such as visual artists, dancers, and musicians will be able to Li iwÌ vÀ Ì i «i ë>Vià > ` Ì i V Õ > >ÀÀ> }i i Ìð >V y À v Ì i LÕ ` } >L Ûi the podium contains a mix of unit types to create an inclusionary atmosphere. Many of the units will be oriented in such a way to encourage social interaction with neighbours and create community. The lower levels will have communal balcony spaces that interact with the public space below. The event space is large adaptable room that can facilitate multiple users at one time. The retail along with the townhouse units Ü Li Ì i wÀÃÌ ÌÜ iÛi à v Ì i LÕ ` }° / i retail includes a cafe and an art supply store.

EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY Lorraine Okungbowa
A community that enables its inhabitants to be open the many ways in which the human mind can learn, through the means of “DOING” as well as reading about “DOING”. This is not to be considered a community that imposes its educative goals on its inhabitants but rather one that provides more opportunities for one to excel and improve oneself.

[MOD]ULAR RESIDENCE Michelle Friesen
My community is based around Health and Wellness. I believe that everyone is concerned about staying healthy, being active and eating well. Health represents proactive activity, while wellness is internal emotions. One of the major problems in Modern society is the creation of anonymous communities, with a lack of communication and interaction with our neighbors. This steams from the loss of the “open backyard� as an open public space where people can work together to achieving healthy lifestyles. By integrating urban agriculture, a diversity of people can be brought together, aid in promoting healthy lifestyles and sustainability through cooperation and social interaction.

Extra produce can also be sold to the general public to create a stronger relationship with the local community. Ecologically, Carbon footprints are also reduced since occupants aren’t as dependent on local grocery stores. With the garden viewed as a focal point, all gardens are public or semi-private to spark friendly competition as well as security for what can be grown. By incorporating agriculture and public green spaces into an urban development, a midrise with its own character can contribute back to the community around it, while creating one within.

HOUSING FOR THE COMMUNITY Roger Xu
The idea of community has been long lost and this project reintroudces this idea into resednetial living spaces. , The concept of having spaces overhanging and bleeding into double story heights creates a sense of enclosivity. These interlocking communal spaces create a sense ofscale within the large building of various small. In summary, the idea of this project is to create long term places of residence that gives sense of ownership and place to this residential unit Ì À Õ} Ì i À}> â>Ì v À Ì i LÕ ` } > ` communal spaces, inspired for the working class of downtown Toronto.

INDIGENOUS HABITAT Timothy Cheng
My design attacks the constant problem of anonymity in a large urban city. Compared to a sub-urban city, occupants would have at least some sort of interaction. Therefore my goal was to create an interactive community which would bring the sub-urban feel into this building. I believe in order to create a successful interactive community it requires some sort of privacy when needed. Therefore I proposed a design containing many small communal spaces for small groups to relax along with larger spaces shared with the entire community. The design of this building harnesses the advantages and works around Ì i ` Ã>`Û> Ì>}ià v Ì i à Ìi° Ì >Ý âiÃ Ì i use of the beautiful north city scape due to nonobstructing low rise townhouses. It also visually connects the podium with the south side park creating an extension with nature expanding the experiential feeling of the environment.

UNIT 21 Alexis Johansen
Providing a safe and welcoming residence building for graduate students of campus allows them to be immersed in the residential neighbourhood feeling provided by the Port Lands. Being a residence building for graduate students, the road to learning takes time and effort. There are many stages one must pass to fully understand a topic. Unit 21 provides space for the four major stages of learning: DATA,INFORMATION,KNOWLEDGE,andWIDSOM. The building has transformed those stages into the spaces of a Computer Lab, Study Hall, Tutoring Space and Lecture Space. As a student progressively passes through each step, they can climb a level to the appropriate work space they require.

ARTIST CO-OP COMPLEX Artyom Savin
As an visual artist co-op peer to peer collaboration and interaction with the public were two main social concepts of the design. Creating a boulevard that runs between the residences connects the water site condition on both the north and south side, while also bringing in the public. Large double storey shared work studio spaces revolve around the exterior of the main point tower. This allows for users to experience the unique light conditions of all four cardinal directions. The main public space is the combination of an art gallery and theatre for digital display. A square is created between the buildings as a public meeting place. The townhouses create a pedestrian friendly street scale while also allowing light into the boulevard. The water canal serves as a visual reminder of the waterfront condition and LÞ ÀiyiVÌ } Ì i v>V>`ià VÀi>Ìià > Ài >««i> }

HOUSING AND DAYCARE CENTRE Derek Beattie
The Housing and daycare centre aims to provide safe, and secure care for children within the new housing development. the daycare which is situated at street frontage, will accomodate for families within the residence, as well as those surrounding it. Townhouse frontage is provided on both the boardwalk and park sides of the building. The residents are provided with a large event space, as well as a state of the art exercise facility. Entrance into the residence is located in the parking garage, or via the pedestrian street. Once inside, the elevator core will disperses the residents vertically, whereas the fenestrated connection provides the needed horizontal circulation towards their respected units. two courtyards are located between the three bars, and provide outdoor gathering space, as well as more direct sun exposure for the single loaded corridor units.

9 PARK AVENUE Jamie Tong
The proposed development is located on 9 Park Ave, on the south side of The Portlands of Toronto. The building is designed to be a co-op student residence for undergraduate, graduate, and post-graduate students. With a bookstore and library accessible to the public, it also engages the community. The three towers contain different unit types, which branch off from the podium. The podium acts as a “middle ground� for students and the public. Townhouses to the north of the building have views to the Portlands Canal. The courtyard in the center of the podium allows for natural light to come into the building, and also connects with the park to the south side of the building.

PERFORMING ARTS CO-OP Lauren Kyle
The concept for the design originates from the late 19th c. theatres in Paris, like the Palais Garnier Opera House, which pay as special attention to the entrance lobby as the theatre itself. The theory behind this was to go to the opera for a show and also become apart of the social performace within the lobby as well; to see and be seen. This idea supports the success of the residents. With two organized theatres to sell shows, to provide the neighbourhood with classic entertainment plus a courtyard which houses a stage that all the residents can overlook from their stepped balconies.

CULTURAL ARTISTIC HUB 2014 Mehrdad Hassani
This building with its community will be home to cultural producers, artists and other creative minds. This is similar to the agora a meeting place, to help create partnerships and alliances between the people that use it, it has a sense that people here are doing things they care about, have familiarity with the people they do business with, they know each other, and they live together.
