The Geometry of Grace

The design of The Properties is one of pure simplicity and understated naturalism. No man-made structure could ever compete with the grandeur of this landscape. These seven buildings nestle on this sloping site just below the treeline, where forests climb toward the peak of Hollyburn Mountain. Every detail is deliberately reserved, letting nature hold centre stage. Each building is terraced into the slope and surrounded by evergreens; each building level is terraced so that views remain as magnificent as the sea below. Soft palettes of textured concrete and honey-toned ledgestone frame broad glass walls and windows, letting the buildings retreat into the landscape. Expansive rooms with soaring ceilings open onto massive decks and terraces, erasing boundaries between indoor and outdoor living.
