SHAPE presented "Demolition as Design" at Richmond’s Internal Workshop "Demolition to Transform." showcasing projects that retain building elements & salvage heritage materials. Rethinking demolition as an opportunity to reduce carbon footprints & enhance architectural intent.
Grange, a high-rise residential development underpinned by heritage, reconciliation, and accessibility principles. The project aims to restore and preserve the original timber-frame façade while integrating a new residential podium tower above the heritage structure.
At SHAPE Architecture, we are deeply committed to creating affordable rental housing to address the current housing crisis. Over the last twenty years, we have delivered thoughtful and humane housing options for scores of individuals, families, and groups in British Columbia.
On #WorldCancerDay, we're honoured to have worked with @cancersociety for the Centre for Prevention +Survivorship, uniting offices with state-of-the-art research, patient accommodations, and wellness spaces. Learn how to support CCS 👉📝 bit.ly/42HeFHu 📸 @emapeterphoto
We're dedicated to creating affordable rental housing to tackle the housing crisis. UEL Menno Hall, a 6-story mixed-use development with student housing + community spaces connects the UBC campus and surrounding areas through fragmented massing as shown in this diagram.
We are deeply committed to creating affordable rental housing to address the current housing crisis. Last month, residents moved into 1043 West King Edward Avenue, a 100% affordable rental development prioritizing natural light, fresh air, and open spaces. 📸: Brett Ryan Studios
Individual reading spaces are just as essential as the learning materials themselves. At Maple Grove Elementary School, mini compartments provide privacy while still allowing a connection with general hallway activity. A collaboration with @montgomerysisam / 📸: @emapeterphoto
“What a great small town library…We love to stop at local libraries when we travel around BC, and this is one of the best.” It’s rewarding to see a space continue to be well-received after its completion. The Columbia Valley Community Facility includes a vibrant public library.
We use physical models to bring our ideas to life. Placing a massing model within the site context allows the team to explore how the design's form relates to its surroundings, leading to solutions that are more thoughtful and well-integrated into their environments.
Cheers to a fantastic 2024! This year has been eventful, and we are grateful for our amazing team, clients, and project collaborators who have worked with us throughout the year. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! We look forward to seeing what 2025 has in store for us.
Wrapping up our Friday Design Reviews with a touch of holiday spirit.🎄🎁 Please note that our studio will be closed from December 24 to January 1. We look forward to reconnecting with you in 2025! Wishing you a joyful and restful holiday season!
A cyanotype is a slow-reacting photographic printing process that results in a cyan-blue image on paper. We incorporated cyanotyping into this year's holiday card by blending this age-old technique with SHAPE Architecture design aesthetics!
We recently attended @udibc's 40th Annual Awards for Excellence Gala! ✨ Our Cardero project was recognized as a finalist in the Innovation + Sustainability category. The heritage restoration reused original materials whenever possible. Learn more 👉 bit.ly/3ZCeJVw
Menno Hall received its Building Permit and construction is underway! This mixed-use development on the University Endowment Land (UEL) combines rental + student housing with academic spaces around a vibrant sustainable courtyard. Project info👉 bit.ly/45JY050

The UBC Applied Science Digital Design Studio will be an innovative facility shared between UBC's School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department. The design will emphasize "making," showcasing collaboration.
A new interdisciplinary space for the School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture and the Chemical and Biological Engineering Department is currently under construction! This laboratory will be a place to test innovative teaching, design, and making methodologies.
Exciting news! The Grange received unanimous approval from the Heritage Commission. We are thankful for all of our amazing partners and their collaborative efforts in reaching this significant milestone. More on the project and collaborators 👉 loom.ly/RF2grGI
