Little Mountain building clad in smoked glass screens, wood-glass panels

Holborn Properties has applied for a development permit for a six-storey market residential building on the Little Mountain site.

The upcoming development, designed by Arno Matis Architecture, includes:

  • 87 units
    • 41 one-bedroom and one-bedroom and den
    • 40 two-bedroom and two-bedroom and den
    • 6 three-bedroom and den
  • 104 underground parking stalls

The building’s architecture is defined by a curved façade, which is meant to pay tribute to the forest in nearby Queen Elizabeth Park.

The suites are concave, and the building’s exterior is highlighted by staggered, smoked-glass screens and curvilinear wood-glass panels. The screens and wood-glass panels enhance privacy for residents and also serve as a passive shading element.
