Winskill Aquatic Centre
The long-planned crown jewel of the City of Delta’s recreation facilities. We’re working fast and furious with our friends at Dialog – literally, their team includes two former Carscaddians, Edward Park and Stewart Burgess.
The band is back together! It’s amazing!
Lions Gate Community Recreation Centre & Library
North Vancouver, BC
A visionary strategy by the District of North Vancouver, this project spanned ten years to implement a community recreation centre into part of a much larger, high density development project at the core of the Lions Gate Town Centre. This community amenity was deftly planned to be opened at residents moved into the multi project, multi year, re-imagined neighbourhood – no small feat.

BCIT Campus Services Centre
Burnaby, BC
A major new project at BCIT in partnership with Moriyama Teshima Architects. The Campus Services Centre is the lynch pin for the new BCIT Trades & Technology Complex. Mass timber! Offices! LEED Gold! Logistics warehouse! Riparian remediation! Workshops! Low-carbon! Passive House targets! There’s even a kitchen sink.

Covered Multi-Sport Boxes
Lower Mainland, Mostly
Historically intended as covered lacrosse boxes, we have advocated the use of covered multi-sport boxes across the Lower Mainland as a way to extend the playing season while also lowering capital costs, operational costs, and minimizing our carbon footprint. (‘Cause we’re all in this together!)

Stainsbury Apartments
Vancouver, BC
One of only a handful of projects to make it through the City of Vancouver’s Moderate Income Rental Housing Pilot Project (MIRHPP, because that’s a mouthful) Stainsbury is a cost-effective, Passive House affordable housing project.

East Van Residence
East Van, Yo
We think Jim Sutherland said it best about this project in Western Living:
Maybe it’s more prose than poetry, but Carscadden’s description of the project as “beautiful decisions that fit within the rules” is as apt a description of a successful urban renovation as is likely to be found. Leave it to the client to supply the poetry. “There’s nothing about it that I’d change,” says Cossever (client). “We got it all.”

Sunset Seniors Centre
Vancouver, BC
The Sunset Seniors Centre is an addition to the unique Sunset Community Centre completed by the late Bing Thom (currently Revery Architecture). With the goals to complement rather than compete, the design quietly supports and references the design elements of the original phase. The project will reach the sustainability goals of the City including Greenhouse Gas Free, LEED Gold Certified, Passive House Equivalent and Rick Hansen Gold Certified.

Translink King George Bike Parkade
Surrey, BC
Translink’s first and flagship Bike parkade. This project was the prototype for both details and materials for our later work.

Circle Wellness Spa
Vancouver, BC
Born of a desire to improve people’s lives and an unshakable belief that wellness demands attention to the body and the mind and the spirit, the Circle Wellness Spa pods are a leap of faith backwards to a more foundational feature of what it means to be human.
