Structural Concept

Core Walls Columns

A sloping column scheme may be used to mitigate the challenge created by the rotating and shifting boxes. This approach responds to the cantilevered forms as well as the programmatic requirement to position perimeter columns for a more efficient floor plate.

Social Sustainability

Bicycle FacilityThe facility is located at grade to meet the needs of building users. It incorporates 195 bike stalls, a bike storage, a repair / bike workshop, showers and change rooms.By being transparent and highly visible, it promotes bicycle use and allows natural light to brighten the lower floor. Interior finishes will be designed to meet the standard of high-end fitness clubs and will include spa amenities like chroma-therapy showers.

Roof Level Sky-Garden

To maximize the use of the Sky-garden in our West Coast weather, a wind screen and an partially opened roof top are employed. It allows people to enjoy the dramatic view rain or shine. The experience will be en-hanced by a unique sloping roof top and bamboo plant-ings that relate to the opening to the sky.

Outdoor ProgramThe outdoor program has been an integral part of the design approach from day one. In addition to the Pocket Park, occupants have access to 7 outdoor decks that are partly vegetated. The decks are varied in nature: expansive open terraces with plantings, two-storey high loggia space, a cantilevered deck over the pocket park and a Sky-garden. The intent is to dissolve the boundary of an office space and invite all occupants to enjoy the outdoor throughout the work day.

Viewing Decks

Unit concrete paving, outdoor seat-ings and planters with flowering ev-ergreen trees, shrubs masses and ornamental grasses are proposed to enhancing biodiversity. Trees help screen views to adjacent neighbor-ing building and provide a more inti-mate experience.

Lighting Strategies

Elegance and implicitly Streetscape Dynamism

ConceptThe lighting concept enhances the unique character of the shifted - rotated boxes and creates a striking silhouette against the backdrop of Vancouver Skyline. Sky-garden pavillions in the middle and at the top of the tower together with illuminated soffits highlight the City’s Landmark Architecture. The strategy outlined on the next page aims to achieve the objectives below.

• Toleverageindirectlightingwherepossibletoreducetheimpactonsurroundingbuildings

Lighting Strategies

Top | City Skyline Experience 1133 Melville is a key element contributing to completing the Vancouver Downtown Skyline. The building is visible from various parts of the city.

Lighting Strategy: Elevating the shape of the boxes by light is the key approach. The Mid and Top section of the building draw the attention of the viewers towards the heart of Downtown from distance. Top is created by highlighting the lower side of the soffit and the landscape.

M id | O ccu pa nt E xp e r ie n ce The users in the tower and residences of the surrounded buildings have direct view towards the open terraces and soffits of the Melville building. Creating soft and harmonic, yet exciting and aesthetically pleasing illumination of the patios and soffits are the key element in providing point of attraction at night.

Lighting Strategy: The illuminated soffits elevate each box. They additionally provide opportunities for the public art at higher elevations, seeing from distance. Illuminated interior walls and ceilings create depth and draw the view towards the inside of the building at key locations such as Level 16.

Lighting Strategy for Terraces: The softly lit terrace spaces create a general glow, viewed from the top. Illuminated trees, handrails, furniture and floor finishes contribute to this type of lighting.

Ground | Pedestrian Experience The lower elevation illumination contributes to the urban life of the downtown core.

Lighting Strategy: The goal is to create an open, safe and welcoming space with light. The well-lit lobby, exterior paths, and garden attracts pedestrians, and visitors to the building and amenity areas, including the restaurant. Illuminated garden creates a place of relaxation and connection. Lighting along the south patio and building front provide opportunity for outdoor dining and socializing.
