Client objectives
Client objectives
The homeowner wanted a home design that incorporated the European design aesthetic of his family’s heritage with steel and concrete construction. Flintstones collaborated extensively with the architects and engineering firm to meet and exceed the homeowner’s vision. Complete with cornices, chimney caps, quoins, a grand fireplace and timber beams the home has an impressive chalet feel.
Project challenges
Project challenges
The initial approval process with the Municipality of Cowichan involved a consultative, team-based approach between Flintstones, MJM Architects and Skyline Engineering. While the steel and concrete construction allowed for a unique and specialized design, it required a construction firm that had the masonry skills, expertise and confidence to realize the homeowner’s vision
