Vancouver-based architecture firm Bricault Design is developing projects not only in architecture, but also in interior design, graphic design and product development in playful and customized ways. Among their architectural designs are a Brooklyn brownstone renovation, a Regina convent conversion, and a home addition located on Brooks Avenue, which can literally be called a “green building”.
They basically maintained and remodeled an existing 2,000-square-foot building, while also supplementing it with the mentioned 1,700-square-foot space due to the need for more space for the growing family, flirting with many aspects of sustainable architecture: green lush living wall on three sides, green roof, and open courtyard.The grasses and shrubs that are watered with a combination of harwested rainwater and recycled domestic water, while cedar batten siding helps shade the interior spaces among with many other green design solutions.

This is a beautiful home. I hope more people realize the importance of creating a space that is not only perfect for a large family but works with the environment instead of against it.
