Operation SEED has begun and it's been an immense success with the residents. The sense of community is overwhelming and we could't be happier with how a simple architectural notion has brought people together!

At long last, the landscaping and rooftop planters are finally taking shape!

The Developer is ICM Group

Hey guys, just came across this thread. We're actually the architects on this one and O2 is the planning consultant that submitted the Land Use. This will be purpose-built rental, 170 units. Land use was approved and after a Covid-induced delay, things look like they might pick up on this one again.

Not to hijack this thread, but Hive (the original in Inglewood) has resurfaced! Negotiations and costing are ongoing. There is some discussion about adding a third floor. This one looks like it may just happen after all!

No updates, but the owner is still optimistic about the project going ahead. Just unsure of timelines given the current state of the economy and the pandemic.

The meeting got postponed until this afternoon...

Meeting with the CEO tomorrow. Fingers crossed we're back on track with this latest injection of $$$.

Thanks guys for all the kind words! Glad to see the excitement being generated around this one. We're awaiting board approvals and fund raising so it'll be a bit of a slow burn but we're hopeful we can get this one going in 2021!

The wood we used on Junction 9 was sourced from a 100 year old granary in southern Alberta so it was well acclimatized and virtually guaranteed not to warp or check. That's how we were able to leave it untreated and allow it to grey naturally over time. Very cost effective and sustainable and...

Covid has definitely slowed progress on this one, mostly on the client's side as they continue to fundraise and grow the business, which is not easy during a global pandemic. We're still hopeful on this one but fall is looking like a pipe dream.

This is true, and while RNDSQR is no longer involved I'm happy to say that the new owner is committed to completing the building to its original vision complete with urban farming on the rooftop. We met with the new contractor and an urban farmer on site on Friday and the plan is to plant in...

Yes, unfortunately (for us) RNDSQR decided not to proceed with our Village project and subsequently sold the property to Eagle Crest Construction who are now developing the project with FAAS. I have yet to see what the project looks like.

The project is still in the DP stage with multiple stakeholders. We're hoping to break ground next fall.

Really excited and proud to share that we presented this project last week at the World Architecture Festival in Amsterdam and it won World Future Office Building of the Year!

Hey guys, thought I'd give a bit of an update. This project just received approval from Nav Canada and the YYC Airport Authority. Next step is applying for the Development Permit which will happen early next week!

@UrbanWarrior much appreciated!!

Hey everyone, loving the dialog on this thread! I've always seen value in architecture that generates discussion and stirs debate. Nothing worse than architectural apathy. As Alex_yyc mentioned, we're a finalist for the Architizer A+ Awards and we just found out that this project is also a...

And here are a couple more examples of great skylit atria around the world: Olympic House in Lausanne Museum of Liverpool ;-)

Unfortunately, this project is currently on hold. But we're hopeful that it will resume once the economy picks up!
