BIM provides architects the opportunity to pioneer new delivery processes, opening possibilities for resolving long standing issues mired in the past. On the Museum, we radically altered our approach to maintaining the design intent through digital prototyping, enhanced contract documents to a hybrid of 2D and 3D for a superior level of trade scope isolation and quantity take-offs. Results include lower construction costs in addition to the integration of design and construction into one process complete with an integral feedback loop.

Kerchum Residence

Frits de Vries Architect Ltd.

Ville: 
Vancouver
Province / Territoire: 
BC

Frits de Vries designed the Kerchum Residence focusing on integrating efficient environmental consciousness with a modern architectural aesthetic. The home has received LEED® Platinum for Homes Certification with its energy consumption, finishes, and landscape design all working together to push the boundaries of sustainability. Yet the architectural focus has not been compromised: it explores the potential for a diversity of spatial experiences in a home, as well as accommodating a multitude of expectations and functions.
