West Vancouver Memorial Library

Comprised of numerous additions over a 60 year period, the West Vancouver Memorial Library was suffering from inefficient building and mechanical systems and a lack of unified identity. SHAPE Architecture has now completed a four phase renovation process that will extend the life of this important community facility and pull together its various phases of construction with a cohesive material palette.

SHAPE Architecture undertook a detailed building assessment to determine the most effective phasing of integrated building envelope and mechanical system upgrades, emphasizing passive strategies.
