CONCEPT

Natural  Harmonious  Dynamic  Connected  Coastal

The community centre for the Kwakwaka’wakw Nations reflects the history of their culture and supports their contemporary cultural needs. The traditions of their culture are represented and supported through the aesthetics and functions of the space.

FLOOR PLAN

The floor plan was designed to mimic the dynamic curvilinear shapes in nature and foster connection and unity among the community.

REFLECTED CEILING PLAN

The wood ceiling in the potlatch hall highlights the importance of the ceremony and the connection to nature.

ELEVATIONS

A coastal vibe is established throughout with a natural colour scheme including blues and greens. Cedar wood is highlighted throughout the interior to represent its importance to the culture.
