Quote:The proposed building’s exterior consists of brick façade with dark grey metal siding, punched windows cantilevered balconies and assorted variations in glazing. The ground floor is distinguished with a deep red coloured brick with arched walls, transparent windows and doors associated with the office space and the residential lobby facing the internal driveway with direct walkway connections to the public street (Wilson Avenue).

Arched walls on the ground level that house the office space and the residential lobby were intended to accentuate the uniformity of the building and to display building programming. The varying size and scale of the arches around the corners provide relief and playfulness to the more rigid articulation of the frame to the upper storeys.

A simple monochromatic design is chosen to contrast with the buildings that surround the complex. The colour palette of the building is comprised of light cream colour for brick exterior, accentuated with deep red coloured brick for the ground floor and to frame the protruding metal balconies painted in dark grey to match the metal siding.
