EDITOR’S NOTE Welcome to the inaugural issue of Structure, an architecture and design magazine focused on the luxury residential real estate market in Canada. Structure is a showcase of creative work from coast to coast and a blend of historic and contemporary designs used to create spaces called home. In this first issue, we feature three high-end homes across Canada – a house by the sea in Nova Scotia (which is also on the cover), a classical and contemporary mansion in north Toronto and a 6,000-square-foot “play house” in Deep Cove, B.C., owned by Herschel Supply Co. co-founder Lyndon Cormack. This mix of dwellings highlights the different style of homes being built across Canada, and how they’re being developed with the owners’ personal tastes top of mind. The magazine also features some of the latest design trends, including the blending of interior
00_Structure Spring 2018_D36.indd 5
and exterior spaces to allow Canadians to spend more time outdoors, even when the weather turns cooler. We also show the latest kitchen looks, including hidden appliances and smart storage to provide a cleaner look in the cooking space. We also interview two designers doing different things in their respective industries: mantel maker Mark Vanderpost is turning his love for creating the hearth of the home into more of an experience on his property in Norfolk County in Ontario. Meantime, out in Vancouver, well-known architect Michael Green continues to shake up the profession with his continuous push to add more wood to our buildings.

Both views looking towards the great room (living/dining/kitchen) to the left and the master wing to the right, and the patio between. “The canopy supports echo nautical components found locally on boats and marinas and help add to the seaside theme,” says architect Stuart Watson. He says the simple sloped roof forms of both of the wings enable the interior space to open up and out to the views and create a subtle transition from the lower ceiling hallways and interior rooms to the big wide-open skies outside. The L-shaped form creates a more intimate courtyard space

of smaller buildings huddled together against the sometimes stormy coastal weather,” Watson says. His team also stayed true to the character of the area by using the same local shingle as the home’s primary exterior cladding material. “It feels natural and appropriate within the local architectural context and further softens the contemporary architecture,” Watson says.
This clothes peg was selected for its whimsical nature. “We wanted to soften the feel of the interior architecture and what better way than to have fun with this whimsical object? Is it sculpture? Is it furniture?” says Stuart Watson, an architect and owner of Toronto-based Drawing Room Architect Inc.
W
hen it was time to build her home away from home on the Nova Scotia coastline, Stuart Watson’s client had two key asks: it had to respect the sea and blend in with the local architecture. “She has a deep love for the area and felt it was important that we were sympathetic to the local culture and vernacular, while still creating a comfortable contemporary place for a modern family to live in,” says Watson, owner of Toronto-based Drawing Room Architect Inc., which designed the home. (The client requested anonymity and to keep the location of the property under wraps.) “She also felt that the home would need to relate strongly to the rich, diverse nature evident throughout the heavily forested lot.” Since the local architecture is mostly modest-sized, shingle-clad houses and small buildings that serve the fishing and tourism industries, Watson chose to design the home into smaller, bite-size pieces instead of a large, imposing structure. “The goal was to make it seem more like a series
To prevent the home from feeling disjointed, Drawing Room designed a long organizing wall that extends from the front-entry canopy, garage and parking areas through the house to the rear pool and patio areas that point towards the ocean. “The hard concrete wall serves as a foil for the lighter shingle-clad structures,” says Watson. “The concrete forms were created with thin planking and we were able to transfer the wood veining onto the finished concrete to create a more natural feel.” The boundary between the inside and outside was also intentionally softened. “We didn’t want a great separation between the inside and the outside,” says Watson. “We wanted the house to reach out into the landscape.… One way we thought we could reinforce that was to continue the interior material palette outside and vice versa.” The smaller buildings are joined together with floor-toceiling glass walls, which allows for a continuous view of the surrounding forest and sea. The view is perhaps the most captivating at sunset, Watson says. “Our client felt that the setting of the sun on the local bay could be a primary focus of the house, creating a daily ritual with nature.”

He says there were also several views that were important to her. That meant orienting the various building wings to take advantage of the different vantage points. “In doing so, we hoped the house would become more deeply tied to the site in a very direct and personal way.” One special feature is the location of the pool, designed by Nova Scotia-based landscape architect Edward Versteeg. It is recessed about three feet lower than the house, alongside the ocean. Watson says the idea is that the pool is part of the landscape. And for more privacy, it’s barely visible from inside the house, unless someone were to stand against the glass walls and deliberately peer down. Much of the interior was also designed by Drawing Room, including some of the custom furniture in the master bedroom, most of the doors and cabinetry throughout the home, and the entire palette of wall and ceiling panels, tiles and plumbing fixtures. Kiosk of Toronto supplied the Poliform kitchen cabinet and the large bookcase cabinet in the great room. Schumacher Design helped in selecting some of the unique furniture. A giant wood clothespin in the front hall, called the Molletta, by Riva 1920, was sourced from Toronto-based Italinteriors.
Overall, Watson says designing the home was a welcome challenge and took several iterations to ensure it was oriented in a way that allowed it to feel like a natural extension of the local environment. “The challenge was, how do you get a place to be really connected to the landscape, and not just a house that’s sitting there with a pretty view?” he says. “It’s really a balance between beauty and practicality.” Mission accomplished as far as Watson and his team are concerned, which also included Black Diamond Builders. “We could not have done this without them,” says Watson. “There were a lot of custom details both inside and out that was executed beautifully.” Most importantly, the client is thrilled. “A lot of people think if you put a house in the middle of the woods you’ve done your job,” says Watson. “I think it’s more involved with that. We were with a client that completely understood this. I can’t overstate how great it was to work with her.” S

New Foster Martin towers offer White Rock buyers luxury living
N
ew real estate project Foster Martin is setting records in the White Rock community, having sold multiple homes priced at over $3 million. The three towers were designed with the sea in mind, favouring scenery-heavy architecture, luxury amenities and both traditional and modern interior design options. The Landmark Premiere Properties development and Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing endeavour is at the forefront of the downsizing trend in White Rock, targeting affluent families and retirees set on living well on the west coast. New market trends “Like a movie producer, we bring in the architect, the interior designer, the finance people and the developer,” said Scott Brown, president and CEO of Fifth Avenue Real Estate Marketing. “We all work together to create a vision for the community.” Downsizing has become a large trend in the real estate industry. Multi-family products like Foster Martin needed to be small to appeal to first time buyers and investors. “We read the downsizer trend early on,” said Brown. “People wanted to move into multi-family units—older buyers, baby boomers, retirees—but weren’t doing it because no one was offering them a product bigger than 1,000 square-feet.” White Rock apartments and condominiums had traditionally been lower quality, and Fifth Avenue foresaw that an affluent market would be willing to pay premium for seaside views. “No one was giving them the Rolls Royce, Jaguar, Aston Martin-type product they wanted,” said Brown. White Rock’s changing community Brown has been a White Rock resident for about 17 years and has witnessed massive cultural change in his community.
00_Structure Spring 2018_D36.indd 11
“Originally, White Rock was quite a sleepy little retirement community,” said Brown. “When I look at my son’s photos from 14 years ago when he was in grade two, and I look at his grade 12 photos, I see that White Rock has become extremely multi-cultural.” The local market is filled with successful people with flexible schedules that are interested in living year-round or six months a year in White Rock. Sixty-five per cent of Foster Martin buyers lived within 15 to 20 minutes of the three tower structures. “Over the last five years the single-family market has been dominated by people moving out of Vancouver and Richmond to White Rock for lifestyle and schools,” said Brown. Fifth Avenue’s strategies Prior to the creation of Foster Martin, Fifth Avenue conducted about a year and a half’s worth of research, and continue to do so every month and quarter in partnership
with the Urban Analytics firm. They also poll their relators. “Foster Martin’s success is an organization priority for our company,” said Brown. “These kinds of projects are challenging to market, so they make you better at everything you do.” The towers provide indoor and outdoor pools, a large common area and a Jaguar and Mercedes shuttle bus to commute buyers between the community’s pier and beach area and the towers. Inside Foster Martin Over 100 homes have been sold so far, amounting to between $100 and $110 million. An option to combine homes at Foster Martin was intentionally designed within the architecture. The project also allows a maximum of six neighbours on each floor, making the living situation more intimate. Every one of Foster Martin’s homes—even the north-facing ones—have been designed to capture the famous White Rock ocean view. Extra-large terraces and patios allow buyers to live holistically both inside and outside. The Lower Mainland will most likely see a rapid increase in the multi-family market within the next three years, especially within B.C.’s dynamic and adapting real estate industry.

he Italian Renaissance may have had Michelangelo and Lorenzo Ghiberti, but modern-day Canada has Mark Vanderpost. While Ghiberti spent nearly three decades sculpting a pair of bronze doors for a cathedral in Florence – which Michelangelo called the “gates of paradise” – Vanderpost takes three months, tops, to create his hand-carved marble mantels. But to the modern eye, Vanderpost’s intricately sculpted stoneworks are
every bit the masterpieces of those Old World masters who give him much of his inspiration.
And like any good Renaissance man, the founder of Trumeau Stones is a man of many talents – an architect, artist, master carver, sculptor, stonemason, entrepreneur and, most recently, a vigneron, relocating his studio to a vineyard in Norfolk County, some 90 minutes outside of Toronto. “Recently we bought a 20-acre farm and built a shop and showroom, so my clients can come

MANTEL MAKER
In medieval art and architecture, a “trumeau” is the central pillar that separates a pair of doors in Gothic archways. It is often sculpted and highly decorative. In 18th-century France, trumeau came to mean an ornamental structure found overtop of a mantelpiece, often carved out of wood or plaster, and sometimes including a mirror. Vanderpost’s first mantel was a replica Tudor Jacobean-style piece for an old home in Toronto’s affluent Rosedale neighbourhood. “It was very period-specific. Tudor Jacobean is later Gothic. It was an interesting thing to kind of jump into as a kid,” says Vanderpost. “I’ve moved on and I’ve kind of fallen into what I really, really appreciate, which is 18th- and 19th-century French and English style. That’s my forte now.” Vanderpost’s recent projects include a floor-to-ceiling, 25-foot-high fireplace for a residential home in Niagara Falls on the U.S. side of the border. He’s also completed a major restoration project – a mansion in southwestern Ontario. The stonework included multiple fireplaces, a wine cellar and a 70-foot-long stone facade.
In this luxury country retreat, the client wanted a custom stone fireplace to match the grand scale of the great room, which looks out over their beautiful landscape. Complementing the outdoor greenery and the warm, textured interior, this Renaissance-style mantel was done in an earthy honed black finish. The mantel was layered in stages to attain the height of the room, while also achieving the goal of covering up existing structural and mechanical details underneath • WANDERER DCP
from the city or wherever,” says Vanderpost. “We built a guest house; they can stay and drink wine from the property and get the full experience.” Vanderpost’s background is in architecture and art history, which he studied at the University of Toronto. He switched gears after discovering stonework while travelling throughout Europe after university. Vanderpost then took up limestone casting, cutting and carving, got certified in architectural technology – and has been creating stunning stone mantels, kitchen hoods and doorway reliefs for high-net-worth and ultra-high-networth clients ever since. His first love, though, is the hearth of the home – the fireplace. “I really took a liking to mantels because, when properly executed, they are as much work as designing a facade or a building. Design, sculpting, everything that I wanted to be doing. I just fell in love with building really elaborate pieces; some are very, very elaborate.”
“They’re always very big, elaborate homes,” says Vanderpost of his work, noting that the southwestern Ontario project took eight months to finish. While Vanderpost is protective of the identity of his clients, he is open to sharing his roster of high-end designers and architects with whom he works, including Lori Morris of Toronto-based Lori Morris Designs. The most expensive mantel Vanderpost ever built replicated a period French mantel from the 18th century, cost $120,000 and took three months to painstakingly sculpt and carve by hand. It’s not the 27 years of toiling that it took Ghiberti and his crew to build the “gates of paradise” doors of the Florence Baptistery, but that was 600 years ago. Even the more relatively modern-by-comparison workmanship of the 18th and 19th centuries is disappearing, laments Vanderpost. “That old craftsmanship, it’s something that’s lost today,” he says. “I just don’t think most projects would ever get the budget to execute those kinds of buildings and details anymore. They involve so much sculpting.”

2018-03-05 9:35 AM
Vanderpost’s Trumeau Stones also offers cast stone masonry – a manufactured product that simulates natural cut stone, which is millions of years old. “It’s more cost-effective and it’s still realistic-looking,” he says of cast stone. Cast stone blocks start around $3,000. By comparison, a 12-inch thick block of marble imported from Italy costs $10,000. While Vanderpost’s clients have sent him around the world to research and replicate designs, it’s the architecture of Paris and the landscape of the south of France that inspires him most. So it’s fitting that his new digs on Trumeau Farm overlook a quintessentially French countryside scene: two vineyards on either side of his window. “That’s my view, every day. It’s really inspiring. This area is a really beautiful area,” he says. Business has boomed since the move outside the city in 2014, reports Vanderpost. The rebranding with the

Smoke & Gamble wine label, along with the help of Instagram, has helped Trumeau Stones get noticed well beyond the Canadian market. He has recently completed mantels for high-end homes in California, Chicago and New York. Ultimately, it’s the personal touch and the intimacy of welcoming clients into his home that create a unique and successful experience, he says. Visitors love the ambience, the wine and the full-on Old World experience afforded by a trip to Trumeau Farm, he says. Smoke & Gamble Cellars produces VQA wines that have picked up numerous awards over the years. “It kind of adds a certain cachet to what we’re doing,” he says. “I think people feel that even if we’re doing a small job for them, they feel like it’s coming from the farm, and it’s coming from the vineyard, and they feel like they’re part of all of that.” S

rom the outside, this 25,000-square-foot home in north Toronto may appear very traditional with its classical French architecture, multi-tone red brick and limestone. But step into the inside and it’s clear the owners’ tastes are much more modern, glamorous – and even a bit whimsical. “They like energy,” says Neil Jonsohn, a principal at Toronto-based U31, which conceived the interior architecture, space planning and design and selection of all the custom-made furniture in the newly built home. “It has a youthfulness.… Toronto can tend to be a bit conservative. They were confident in what they wanted.” The owners, who wish to remain anonymous, were looking for a mix of private and public space where they could both entertain and spend time alone with their children.

The house sits on a mature, tree-lined street with large, traditionally inspired homes. “While the interior takes on a more contemporary esthetic, the clients made a conscious decision to use classical detailing on the exterior to remain within the context of the neighbourhood,� says Neil Jonsohn, lead designer at U31

The builder was Del Greco Project Management Contractors of Toronto. Jonsohn says it takes cues from classical French architecture with a combination of limestone and multi-toned red brick with slate roof. “Quite a solid, grounded home, the landscape repeats the geometry of the limestone detailing with a modern formality that’s contrasted with the movement of the tall grasses and softness of the hydrangeas,” he says
“They are very private and family-oriented,” says Jonsohn. “They wanted a home that was comfortable for the children, but where they can also entertain.… We created something large enough to host events, but that also had enough intimacy that it didn’t feel uncomfortable to live in.” Throughout the home, the backgrounds are neutral and contemporary, but many of the furnishings have more colour and sculptural quality in some places, Jonsohn says. “The forms are simple, but the materials are quite rich,” he says. “It’s almost like the little black dress that you pair up with the perfect jewelry to make it incredibly special.” S

LUXURY LUMINESCENCE What’s immediately striking throughout this north Toronto home is the lighting. Each room has a unique piece. “We had a lot of fun with lighting. To me, lighting is huge, not just the quality of the light but the light itself,” says Neil Jonsohn of U31. “The wrong chandelier, no matter how expensive, can ruin a space.” Here are some details on a few special pieces.

The Criss-Cross chandeliers were conceived to blend sculpture with light, says Dominique Bastien, executive assistant at Ridgely studio Works in Toronto, where the piece was sourced. “It is a unique piece that is composed of cut steel rod carefully arranged and welded in a seemingly random pattern. Although similar, no two fixtures are alike and [they] are built to the requirements of each project.” Bastien says the sculpture is lit from a canopy above, which bounces light from the polished nickel rods, creating interesting shadows below. The fixture is complemented by matte black framework that encloses the free-form structure

At the same time, Pugliese did want some outdoor space, but shied away from the traditional balcony. “In Toronto,
a balcony only functions for a few months a year at most, and we wanted a space that we could enjoy any time of the year,” he says. So, Pugliese designed a winter garden. The addition of the winter garden (or some call it a sky garden) forged a link between the garden and home. “The garden room created a way to move from inside to outside and changed the way we live in our home,” he says. “This room has become our favourite place in the home.… It’s where we go to relax as a family or to watch television.” The 225-square-foot room is flanked on both sides by French doors, a double-sided fireplace and two walls of oversized windows. Pugliese replaced the old windows with folding windows, which allows them to open fully, giving the illusion of an outdoor terrace. Because the

The idea of creating a common space between indoor and outdoor is growing, especially since it is versatile, convenient and a clever way to bring the outside in. Pugliese has managed to design a winter garden room that is at once sophisticated and elegant, but also comfortable – a very attractive combination. “Our winter garden truly enhances and seamlessly integrates with the main living space to make the most of our expansive views,” says Pugliese. “It is such a beautiful room that it’s where I chose for my workstation and desk.”

A
s an award-winning interior designer and principal of Project 22 Design, Denise Ashmore is in the business of bringing people’s dream home visions to life. When it came to her own west-side home near Vancouver’s Queen Elizabeth Park, Ashmore had a clear vision of what she wanted for her indoor-outdoor living space – to expand the home’s living and entertaining square footage. “We bought the property for the south-facing backyard and location,” she says, adding they tore down the 1920s home that once stood on the property because of its lack of character and multiple renovations. The backyard ground level is home to a 350-square-foot living room courtyard. It was designed to maximize outdoor-indoor living by incorporating floor-to-ceiling accordion doors that open to the home’s main living spaces, and to a lanai deep enough for mid-century, modern interior-inspired furniture and a built-in barbecue. By using consistent materials, such as natural unfinished concrete, and a simple palette inside and out, the spaces blur one into another.
Collaborating with architect Clinton Cuddington of Measured Architecture Inc., they could conceive a combination workspace and, on weekends and evenings, a tranquil retreat from day-to-day life. “This space functions really nicely as an outdoor boardroom and lunchroom for myself and my staff,” she says, adding her design studio is nestled in the laneway adjacent to the terrace. “In addition, we have meetings out there with clients, and they really seem to enjoy this intimate space.” It has also become a favourite family-and-friends gathering space. For Ashmore, husband Paul Rapp and their two teens, the outdoor room allows the family to enjoy lots of quality time together. Ashmore didn’t stop there. She also fashioned a small outdoor space on the north-facing basement level that features a small seating area with firepit. Ashmore says: “It adds warmth and provides visual interest.” S

he kitchen may be one of the most used rooms in the home, but it doesn’t have to look that way. The latest trend in kitchens is removing all of the clutter – or at least making it look that way. “For modern kitchens, we’re seeing clean, minimal lines with slab doors, sleek hardware, fully integrated appliances and hidden hood fans,” says Sandra Mendes, senior designer, corporate projects, at AyA Kitchens/AVANI Kitchens in Mississauga, Ontario.

The back-to-basics look doesn’t end there. A number of kitchens are going for a more rustic feel with the use of various types and textures of wood. Think very high-end farmhouse. “Some mid-century modern influences are popular such as walnut and textured wood finishes along with porcelain counter surfaces that mimic marble,” says Mendes. “For traditional, transitional kitchens we’re seeing chunky shaker doors, decorative hood fans, restaurant-style appliances, open floating shelves, farmhouse sinks and rustic influences.” Another, newer trend Mendes is seeing lately is the use of black finishes and accents, from faucets, surface hardware, appliances and even cabinets. An all-black kitchen would then be paired with white or similarly lighter shades of flooring or countertops. “You need to lighten up that palette. You wouldn’t want it all in a black finish,” Mendes says.

kitchen solutions include table pullouts and work surfaces. The two images show AyA’s table pullout in the open and closed positions
Some other trends she’s seeing include open shelving and storage; counter-height storage with lift-up doors for small appliances (“It keeps often-used items hidden, yet easy to reach,” Mendes says). She’s also seeing many new and different smart storage solutions, such as rollouts and pullouts for garbage and recycling – adding to the theme of hiding away what gets used in the kitchen. “There’s a lot of attention being paid to what’s happening inside of the cabinets,” she says. “Everything is clean, tidy and put away.” There are also more requests for compact kitchen solutions such as table pullouts and work surfaces for the modern family. That extends to designs to accommodate technology, such as smartphones and tablets, which are becoming a regular feature in kitchens today for watching cooking videos and referring to the hottest new recipes. Mendes says kitchens are now equipped with specialized charging stations for smartphones and other devices to make them even more utilitarian. Then there is the number of new smart-home technologies making their way into modern kitchen designs. Cleaning up the kitchen has never been so stylish and sophisticated. S

t was the ocean, the forest and the mountains that drew Lyndon Cormack west and it was the ocean, the forest and the mountains that led him to purchase his favourite home in the idyllic West Coast enclave of Deep Cove. And so it was with the natural world at the fore that the cofounder of the Herschel Supply Co. set out to transform the house and property into his forever home. “One of the reasons I live in the middle of the forest is to be surrounded by it,” says Cormack. “This is a house that my plan is never to sell, and my kids know that’s my intention that we do things now so that it only gets more beautiful with time. So I plug away at trying to create a very livable, a very playful house.” While his extensive renovation is far from over – may never be over, one gets the sense – he has certainly done much to achieve that goal. A life-sized chess set adorns the lawn. Cormack just

a weekend would wake up and figure out what they’re going to do that day.… Some people might say they’re going to stay home and do nothing. I want to stay at home and do a lot.” His role at Herschel takes Cormack all over the world. “I’m always abroad … and I love coming home. Having that sense of just coming home to somewhere you love is really important to me,” he says. “I love exploring new areas, I love seeing new things, I love taking inspiration from travels but I also love coming home.” Cormack and his brother grew up in Calgary. His pre-Herschel journey took him to Melbourne, Australia, then to Canmore and Banff, Alberta, and finally Kelowna, B.C., before making his way to the West Coast. In Vancouver, the brothers co-founded the Herschel Supply Co. in 2009 and have built it into a successful global accessories and fashion brand. Named for a small Saskatchewan village where their great-grandparents settled after emigrating from Scotland, Herschel’s stylish line of bags, wallets and accessories offer a modern take on classics. They are, above all, utilitarian, and the humble backpack remains the bedrock of Herschel’s brand. Inspired by classic design, Herschel is where nature meets metropolitan, and the same theme resonates in Cormack’s 6,000-square-foot home. Natural light and wood dominate a space that is both utilitarian and artful. A fan of Omer Arbel’s design work, Cormack has 300 individual Bocci pendants and counting in his home.

“I’m influenced by great design in my life, all the time,” he says. But his home is likely more eclectic than Herschel fans might expect, and less minimalistic. Cormack surrounds himself with the things he loves, first and foremost, and he finds a way for them to work in the space he’s creating. “I don’t necessarily want to live in a very stark, rigid home,” he says. “A house helps you understand a person. You get a sense of who that person is, you figure out what they care about. People would know that I care about lighting and I care

about fires and I care about comfort and fun.” Cormack was drawn by the flat waterfront on the property – a rarity in mountainside Deep Cove. The previous owners had built an expansive deepwater moorage on the ocean side. Behind the property was a four-acre parcel of iconic North Shore rainforest. The house itself posed a bit of a challenge. “I absolutely hate slate,” Cormack says with a laugh. Unfortunate, then, that the home was literally covered in it. The walls, the floors, the countertops. It was, he admits, beautiful in its way. It had been featured in magazines but Cormack “just can’t stand the bloody stuff,” he says. Yet he wanted to work with what was
there. “It’s easy to tear down and rebuild but I think the main part is, how do we keep what’s already existing and add to it in a responsible way?” When he first set out to renovate his goal was to get rid of all the slate but there was simply too much of it. In the end he worked around it where he could and removed it where feasible. Along the way Cormack discovered a new love of area rugs – everywhere fur rugs, hides, traditional Persian carpets and bright runners are draped over slate.
The breathtaking property features Japanese maples, rhododendrons, azaleas and magnolias that aren’t commonly found in this region
The sprawling garden is another focus of his design, a perpetual work in progress that he is planting now for the garden he wants in 20 years. “It will just continue to evolve and change and look

beautiful,” he says. “Maybe eventually in 50 years when I die I’ll look back at it being a life’s work. I think I’ll just tinker away at doing interesting things.” Cormack says he has no specific design inspiration or style in mind as he reworks his property. He’s created multiple zones not just in the house but throughout the property where he and his family can settle in to enjoy a day on the outdoor putting green,
His favourite features are not design features so much as activities – wakesurfing for the day or curling up in front of the outdoor fireplace. “My passion is to be outdoors all of the time,” he says. The forest, the ocean – these are the beauty of this property and of Vancouver in general, not architecture or design, he says. “All that stuff came for free in Vancouver. It’s a beautiful place – much more beautiful before we decided to come put stuff around it,” Cormack says. “My goal is to continue to give back to the beauty of what was given to us for free and make sure that decisions are thoughtful and considered and, in some way or another, my residence is giving back to something that already existed and was very beautiful. “The house is meant to exist with nature.” S

GREEN’S WORLD
Architect Michael Green’s focus on sustainable building is shaking up the architecture world. He talks to Structure about the crossover between nature and buildings that shapes his work WORDS • BRENDA BOUW | PHOTOGRAPHY • EMA PETER
Michael Green’s house: known

as the Samnani Green House,
or as long as he can remember, Michael Green wanted to be an architect. “I have always been interested in making things, in art and building,” says Green, who was born in Nunavut before moving with his family to Ottawa at age five. He later studied architecture at Cornell University in New York.
the half duplex in Vancouver’s Kitsilano neighbourhood was a collaborative project by SMD and MGA (Michael Green Archictecture)
It wasn’t until he was well established in his career that Green’s passion for the profession kicked into high gear. For years, architecture didn’t seem to quite connect with his other love – the great outdoors. As a kid, Green couldn’t spend enough time outdoors hiking, kayaking and mountain climbing. In fact, a good chunk of his 20s and 30s was spent climbing mountains around the world. “For a long time, I struggled with how the two came together,” Green says of nature and architecture. The two eventually converged when Green moved back to Canada from the U.S. about 20 years ago and settled in Vancouver, where he now runs his namesake architecture firm with a focus on sustainable design. Green has since made headlines with his eyebrow-raising 2013 TED Talk, “Why We Should Build Wooden Skyscrapers,” and he recently co-authored Tall Wood Buildings: Design, Construction and Performance. Structure spoke with Green about what inspires him and his work: HOW HAVE YOUR EXPERIENCES TO DATE, INCLUDING YOUR LOVE OF THE OUTDOORS, SHAPED YOUR WORK?
Approaching my work with an adventurous spirit has been a huge asset to my career. Travelling around the world, to
unique places, has also allowed me to see and experience other cultures. For instance, I’ve been to a lot of developing countries, where I saw a different perspective and how architecture is serving people with different needs. That became a really compelling aspect of who I wanted to be as an architect. There is this convergence of these different worlds; being in the wilderness and climbing mountains and bringing those values into the way we run our business and the kind of work we do. I find that really interesting. YOU’VE WORKED 0N DOZENS OF AIRPORTS AROUND THE WORLD IN YOUR CAREER TO DATE. WHAT DRAWS

out people’s personalities. That means what they own. There’s a story behind many things they own like a piece of art or an object they found on a trip. When you design a house, you design to those things that are those people’s story. You mix their story with the site you’ve chosen. Together you create a great house that matters. Architects have a duty to deliver on the story. WHAT DOES YOUR OWN HOME LOOK LIKE?
I used to live in a heritage home in North Vancouver that I renovated many times over about 18 years. It was great, but it was way too big. It held too much stuff. A couple of years ago, I decided to move to the Kitsilano neighbourhood [in Vancouver] to be closer to the beach. When I did that, I bought a half a house. It’s a half of a duplex, very skinny and about half the size of my old home. I cut away half of my belongings – sold or gave away most of what I owned – and built a simple house for my kids, my girlfriend and I and our cat and dog. It’s a very simple house. We did a major renovation to make it energy-efficient. It’s a beautiful space. We have stuff, but everything goes away so you can’t see it. I much prefer living in that environment. We are outside, we are more part of our community, living small and going out. I think we are practising what we preach, which is simplicity, not overbuilding and living more efficiently.
The second-level living space has storage positioned cleverly like nautical architecture to ensure a simple, quiet esthetic where everyday clutter has a home. Douglas fir stairs were manufactured off-site and dropped into place. The solid Douglas fir stringer is so thin that it required a knotless slab to structurally span the floors without touching the walls. The gap between the stair and wall

values. Buildings, and the way you develop cities, can help or hurt dramatically. An airport, as a signature of a community, was an interesting way to start my career. Airports took me to interesting places such as Uruguay; Montego Bay, Jamaica; Moscow; and in Canada to places like Ottawa and Prince George, B.C.

I’ve heard architects say, “If we’re going to design a house for you, you’ll need to throw away your belongings and buy new things that are nicer.” I see the world completely the opposite. To do a house isn’t about my signature, it’s about the signature of the place and the people. This is true with a big building or a house. The place and people are the story. As an architect it’s your job to listen and learn and to observe and to find the story that draws
WHAT’S NEXT?
We have become quickly known for working with more wood and building more carbon-neutral buildings, as well as bringing wood into the urban context in the big cities. I was an outlier when I started talking about building tall buildings and skyscrapers from wood years ago. People thought I was crazy. In 2013, I gave a TED Talk on building skyscrapers with wood and seemingly overnight the concept has become global. The concept isn’t only taught in architecture schools around the world, but architects are proposing it. It’s a revolution in architecture that I believe is just beginning. The natural world has solutions we are only just starting to understand. The more time we spend in nature, the more we find the answers to our problems are all found there.
