Echo Beach Residence

Sunshine Coast, BC

Located on a sloped site on the Sunshine Coast, this new single family residence project is comprised of a 3-storey main house and a detached guest house. The features of the main residence include a cantilevered roof, outdoor courtyard, deck, and infinity pool. The floor of the entrance area is suspended between the garage and the main building. A steel gravity frame system achieves the required large spans and cantilevers. The seismic system is comprised of a composite steel deck diaphragm with wood shear walls on the upper floor and concrete shear walls on the lower floor. The residence will be anchored directly to blasted bedrock which will help to resist high seismic loads.
