[PARK]WAY takes advantage of the latest changes to the BC Building code by incorporating Single Exit Stair cores that allow for floor area efficiencies, accessibility and inclusivity. The simple context-based architectural form permits the use of pre-fabricated building construction systems that allow for economical and material efficiencies. The form and organization of spaces permits for future additions or re-adaptations to plug-in as either prefab or on-site light wood frame construction.
[PARK]WAY is driven by five essential considerations: (1) prioritizing outdoor spaces & activities; (2) incorporating efficient circulation cores; (3) ensuring a permeable and visible ground floor; (4) ensuring unit variety; and (5) integrating future re-adaptability measures.
