New Home 4, Yellowknife, NT

This is another project with Vince Barter & PSAV Architects.

Currently under construction, this house is a real modern gem on Yellowknife’s Latham Island. Vince’s & the home owner have worked together fabulously to come up with this design. It employs all sorts of passive energy strategies, has very modern massing and one heck of a great layout. Some interesting details arose around the framing of the roof decks and rear balconies but overall the framing was kept fair simple by designing with engineered lumber.

This is the first house I’ve tackled with flat roofs, cementicious panel siding and such a large amazing kitchen. Have a look at the drawings. I will probably add more comments when this project is completed.
