A Balance Between Boldness & Subtlety
Anthem Properties has submitted a development application to build a prominent 33-storey residential tower at the southeast corner of West Georgia and Bidwell streets. The team of Kohn Pedersen Fox Architects and Chris Dikeakos Architects have proposed a design inspired by the balance between boldness and subtlety of the mountains, aiming to bring a sense of nature to the convenience of urban living. Interlocking and stepping, the dynamic composition of the tower strongly portrays the character of mountainous rocks. Cascading greens on the upper terraces continue down on the tower facade before spreading out to the podium terraces, then to the ground level landscaping, depicting mountain foothills. A total of 127 market residences will be offered.
