The eastside upside project is taking shape and our favourite feature is the living spaces on the top floor with an amazing deck overlooking the Burrard Inlet. As our Client said “the masterpiece is coming together” and we couldn't agree more. #nickbrayarchitecture #vancouverarchitects #vancouverarchitecture #architecturedesign #architecture

Featured in the Vancouver Sun and the Province. Thanks again to the team, but especially to my incredible wife who was a big part of the project’s success. #robinsonlightingandbath #pacificrimcabinets #harmonysenseinteriors #designsbykaterinasilvie #jdlhomes #blackthumbcontracting #wirechiefelectric #naturaseal #vettabuildingtechnologies #westecopanels #vancouvericf #pacificaerobarrier #daltile #midlandappliance #kayucanada #sherwinwilliams #ecospacanada #rjsstonetops #vancouvergasfireplace #kingliving #audioinsider #martinknowlesphotograpy

Initial concept for a 36 unit apartment building on an very challenging site (narrow and steep) in Colwood. The intent being to design a bold, high-quality building that provides significant value-for-money. #colwoodbc #bcarchitecture #vancouverisland #vancouverarchitecture #cityofcolwoodbc #cityofcolwood

It was such an honour to win in all 4 of our nominated categories at the Havan Awards! Thanks to Marita Luk @bcit, Einar Halbig @e3ecogroup, Reza Kamrani @federatedins and @dickslumbercanada for sponsoring the awards and presenting them to us. The “Passive Narrowtive” project was such an amazing experience for us and we'd like to once again thank all of our incredible team! #robinsonlightingandbath #pacificrimcabinets #harmonysenseinteriors #designsbykaterinasilvie #jdlhomes #blackthumbcontracting #wirechiefelectric #naturaseal #vettabuildingtechnologies #westecopanels #vancouvericf #pacificaerobarrier #daltile #midlandappliance #kayucanada #sherwinwilliams #ecospacanada #rjsstonetops #vancouvergasfireplace #kingliving #audioinsider #martinknowlesphotograpy

Roses are red, violets are blue but Marigolds are the coolest of cool! Especially this newly proposed development for the northern phase of the Marigold Lands masterplan, consists of a 6-storey rental-apartment building, along with eight 2-story townhouses and six 3-storey townhouses. A sense of community and diversity (with the wide range of unit sizes ) played a big part in the design. Aren't Marigolds your favorite flower now too? #nickbrayarchitecture #architect #architects #vancouverisland #architecturedesign

Recently test-drove the amazing new Landrover Defender. Like all great design, it’s respectful of its heritage, but discernibly modern. And there’s a hybrid version on its way. But... there’s something irreplaceable about rattling around in the original! @mclmotorcars #defender #landrovervancouver #landroverdefender

Ahhh the 90's! It gave us the Simpson's, Doc Martens and Blockbuster. It also gave us beepers, backwards baseball caps, curtain bangs and a poorly built house in Kits. Working with DesignsByKS, Miskimmin Engineering and Forte Projects, we stripped this house back to the frame and while adding a basement suite, rebuilt it as a modernised, air-tight, low-energy home. Some things are just better in 2021! #nickbrayarchitecture #designsby_ks #forteprojects #vancouverarchitecture #vancouverarchitects #architecture #architects #miskimmineng

Sometimes it's our little ones that inspire great ideas! Nick designed and built for our latest client (and quite frankly our most adorable), a Multi-Use Learning Tower that soared into high demand. So we are now using it to raise funds and support Habitat for Humanity Greater Vancouver. We encourage you to make a generous donation to receive our Learning Tower design. Plans include a cut list along with detailed assembly instructions. This project is very cost-efficient to build as only one 4’x8’ sheet of finished ½” plywood is required! Minimum donation is $25 and 100% of proceeds go directly to Habitat for Humanity Greater Vancouver.

Smack dab in the middle of Langford’s growing sports hub is where we are building Boxing Canada’s new home. The building will have two levels: a gym on the ground floor that will be a training centre as well as a showcase for events with stackable bleachers and offices on the upper floor for the national teams. It’s definitely a one – two punch knockout! We are excited to collaborate with Victoria Design Group, Verity Construction and the City of Langford on this fantastic project. #nickbrayarchitecture #architecture #langford #vancouverisland #vancouverislandarchitecture #architects #boxingcanada
