1550 Alberni Street Tower
Location: Vancouver, Canada
Program: Residential, Commercial & Hospitality
Year: 2023
Team: John Jiang
Info: Mixed-use High-rise Tower
The 1550 Alberni Street Tower is a landmark mixed-use development in downtown Vancouver that redefines the city's skyline. The design features a distinctive sculptural form with curved facades that respond to the surrounding urban context and optimize views towards the harbor and mountains.
The tower integrates residential, commercial, and hospitality programs within a unified architectural expression. The building's form is carved to create unique outdoor spaces and terraces, while the curved geometry helps to minimize wind impact and maximize natural light penetration.
Sustainability and user comfort are central to the design, with high-performance glazing, green roofs, and innovative mechanical systems. The project demonstrates how high-rise architecture can contribute positively to the urban fabric while creating exceptional living spaces.
