Covered Multi-Sport Boxes
Lower Mainland, Mostly
Historically intended as covered lacrosse boxes, we have advocated the use of covered multi-sport boxes across the Lower Mainland as a way to extend the playing season while also lowering capital costs, operational costs, and minimizing our carbon footprint. (‘Cause we’re all in this together!)

East Van Residence
East Van, Yo
We think Jim Sutherland said it best about this project in Western Living:
Maybe it’s more prose than poetry, but Carscadden’s description of the project as “beautiful decisions that fit within the rules” is as apt a description of a successful urban renovation as is likely to be found. Leave it to the client to supply the poetry. “There’s nothing about it that I’d change,” says Cossever (client). “We got it all.”

Sunset Seniors Centre
Vancouver, BC
The Sunset Seniors Centre is an addition to the unique Sunset Community Centre completed by the late Bing Thom (currently Revery Architecture).

The project will reach the sustainability goals of the City including Greenhouse Gas Free, LEED Gold Certified, Passive House Equivalent and Rick Hansen Gold Certified.
