EXTERIOR - Sustainable Architecture

Utilizing authentic and rare materials bespoke of sustainable architecture, the owner’s vision of a resilient home was masterfully executed by Billy Thistle of Point Break Developments, renowned for high-end residential construction of unparalleled quality. Clad in clear, wide-plank cedar siding sourced from Bella Coola, a wide copper belly-band girdles the exterior and anchors the intention to ecologically preserve the home. Topped with a slate roof sourced from Quebec, seamless copper gutters, downspouts, flashing and trim reinforce the resolve to create a home that will viably stand the test of time beyond expectations. The resilient concrete, floating staircase with recessed lighting invites you to ascend and explore.  Adding another dimension to the exterior by night the home is effectively illuminated by eye-catching "uplighting" that highlights the fine architectural details.

A RARE BEAUTY IN SOUTH OAK BAY

"This modern masterpiece, inspired by European, Asian, Middle Eastern, and Indigenous architectural styles, captures and celebrates the essence of diversity.  By blending these varied cultural influences, the home radiates a dynamic and distinctive identity rooted in its rich cultural fusion."
