The Architecture Foundation of British Columbia (AFBC) is excited to announce the launch of a walking tour program through Vancouver's downtown, highlighting key infrastructure that makes Vancouver what it is today, and discussing the role architects and planners have on building a good city.

The AFBC has been working on revamping and modernizing tours that were once hosted through the Architecture Institute of British Columbia (AIBC). We ran a small pilot program during Design Vancouver Festival 2024 and have been working diligently to build it into a full summer program.

Each tour is roughly two-hours in length, beginning at the Street Light sculpture at the roundabout on Marinaside Cresent and will end at the Vancouver Public Library. Look for the AFBC Banner and two tour guides waiting for you!

About the exhibition

Patkau Architects are known for their innovative and deeply thoughtful approach to architecture, with a particular attention to light and its role in shaping spaces. The use of light often reveals the unique characteristics of a place, enhancing the connection between architecture and its surroundings. Light can influence the perception of space and the sensory experience of a building and its materials. In this exhibition, light, a material source determined by the interplay of materials such as wood, steel, and concrete, becomes a performative source of the architecture it represents. The movement of light throughout the day changes the representation of the materials. 

The projects selected for this exhibition often emphasize the relationship between natural light and the built environment by considering how light interacts with materials and forms to create atmosphere and evoke emotional responses. In a way, the light performs with the built material to add visual layering to the structure.

We can enjoy being in these buildings and not know exactly why. Nevertheless, recognizing the consciously constructed relationship between the ephemeral qualities of light and the more solid materials employed by the architects is essential to our understanding of the multiple layers that make up these structures. By using light to define materials such as steel, wood, and concrete, the Patkaus initiate an ongoing and active interplay between the built environment and its natural context.
 

About the artists

Patkau Architects, founded in 1978 by John and Patricia Patkau, is a Canadian architecture and design research practice led by four principals, three senior associates, and two associates, all supported by a team of architects, designers, and administrative staff.

Working together with shared goals and ideas developed over the past 47 years, this team has led the studio on a great diversity of projects. Their portfolio comprises art installations and furniture, houses, medium-scaled community buildings, and major urban buildings. The commitment to the search for 'found potential' - those aspects of place, culture, and its people that can be gathered into an architectural form evocative of locale, circumstance, history, and landscape - is the through-line that distinguishes their work.

Patkau Architects also apply the search for found potential to materials themselves, looking for new ways to shape and combine familiar materials to explore new possibilities and applications. A guiding principle in this work is 'material + force = form', where form is simultaneously material, space and structure. Their studio’s design lab tests these ideas at full scale, both in-house and in workshops around Vancouver, conducting experiments that inform and inspire their building-scale work. Patkau Architects Material Operations, their most recent book, is a compendium of these research innovations (Princeton Architectural Press, 2017).

Deriving from this combination of architecture and research, Patkau Studio has emerged as a way to bring their deep fascination with materials, form, and craft into greater focus and accessibility.  Art and furniture ideas often emerge concurrently with architectural designs. Each piece develops out of an experimental process by which every detail is considered and refined, the design evolving through making. Their aim is to enrich spaces with elegant and articulate objects that invite visual, tactile, and emotional engagement, all made in-house in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

This exhibition is generously supported by the Patterson Rozee Family Foundation.

A 'startling' sight when built in 1936, St. James' Anglican Church would later be considered “the best building in Vancouver” by Arthur Erickson, one of Canada's most esteemed architects. Little is known about the Anglo-Canadian collective that shaped this bold example of early modernist architecture in the city, let alone how financing it was possible during the Depression. Even less obvious is how this building renewed the city's Anglican 'mother church' amidst a thriving centre of Vancouver's Japanese community. Drawing on archival research, architect and historian Elisabeth Kwan offers intriguing new perspectives about the transformation of this building's identity from local church to city landmark.

One of the latest avenues to help tackle the current housing crisis is the recently introduced 2024 BCBC revision that enables the construction of single exit stair residential buildings greater than 2 storeys. For decades the two exit stair code requirement has resulted in the ubiquitous double loaded corridor apartment design all over the country. The change is intended to increase flexibility in design to allow projects on smaller lots and in different configurations. Join us for a discussion on the technical requirements, design opportunities and challenges of this recent code change, and what they could mean for the housing crisis.

First, Corie Luben of Celerity will provide an overview of the new technical requirements and mitigating features that will allow buildings up to 6 storeys to have a single exit stair. Inge Roecker of AIR Studio and Associate Professor at UBC SALA will follow with a discussion of the architectural opportunities this code change will enable for housing design and insights from a 6 storey single exit stair project currently at the Development Permit stage in the City of Vancouver.

The presentation will highlight the significant requirements that architects must be aware of when evaluating the feasibility or schematic design of single exit stair buildings.

Learning Objectives:

1. Types of buildings that the new requirements apply to.

2. Assumptions for fire protection and emergency response.

3. Factors that restrict the maximum size of single exit stair buildings.

4. Design requirements for the exit stair that differ from conventional buildings.

5. Design opportunities and challenges for apartment building design with a single exit stair.

6. Collaborating with permitting departments on single exit stair projects.

The Architecture Without Borders – Polish-Canadian Architectural Exhibition – Vancouver 2024/25 exhibition highlights the significant contribution of Polish specialists to the development of architecture in the province of British Columbia. It was prepared with numerous architects of Polish descent working and designing here in British Columbia and around the world.

The exhibition showcases both the historical achievements and contemporary works of architectural bureaus in Vancouver, including examples of buildings, architectural concepts, and engineering solutions that have resulted from the collaboration between Polish and Canadian professionals. It also serves as a tribute to Mr. Bogusław (Bogue) Babicki, on the 100th anniversary of his birth. Mr. Babicki was an honorary member of the Architectural Institute of British Columbia. Showing his works emphasizes his substantial contribution to the architectural landscape of Vancouver.

The Royal Architectural Institute of Canada has bestowed honorary patronage upon the exhibition, while the Architecture Foundation of British Columbia has extended its support to our initiative. Owing to the collaboration of numerous esteemed partners, the exhibition features distinguished architectural projects from British Columbia, including competition entries recognized both in Canada and internationally.

Architecture Without Borders is a testament to the achievements of Polish specialists and the promotion of projects that connect the shared heritage of their creators.

The AFBC will be hosting the Architectural Achievement Awards for the first time this November to celebrate exemplary individuals who have made significant contributions to the field of architecture.
