About us
Our work creates spatial experiences–beyond buildings–to the city at large, capable of spurring transformation, engagement and renewal. We work with people who are passionate about building collective experience and memory–who understand that small interventions woven throughout the city can have as bold an impact on community as megaprojects. We work with people who believe you get the best results through taking risks.

PUBLIC’s new ground-breaking report reconsiders two-stair buildings for typical Metro Vancouver scenarios. Current building code requires two staircases in residential buildings above two storeys. What happens when there is just one? Our solutions for this small code change are more sustainable, livable, affordable, and socially resilient. Download: https://lnkd.in/dNPaY_YS Thank you for the incredible efforts of our project team: LGA Architectural Partners, GHL Consultants Ltd, and RTA QS; and, the support of our funding partners: BC Housing, City of Vancouver, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) Société canadienne d'hypothèques et de logement(SCHL), Balanced Supply of Housing, McGill University, and SSHRC-CRSH. #buildingcodereform #codereform #singlestair #pointaccessblock #urbanplanning #affordablehousing
