3 CASA LOMA I City of Toronto, Cultural Assets I $16.25M CDN Conservation principles have guided the staged restoration program for the intricate masonry envelope including the research and development for the use of a proprietary precast roman stone. The design of this stone responded to the original mix and modernized its manufacture aligning it with contemporary standards while preserving its most signifi cant properties. The building is a laboratory for the understanding of masonry construction principles. The goal of re-establishing equilibrium of distressed masonry assemblies informs every decision and choice of restoration methods. Toronto s climate is varied and demanding and exacts a heavy toll on building elements. Correspondingly, detailing of traditional materials, such as lead sheet, is unapologetic and robust.

5 LAKESHORE CAMPUS WEST LIBRARY, TORONTO I Humber Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning I $5.45 M CDN The introduction of a long sloping glass wall across the original building plan reorganized the entire space, resolving geometries and generated a series of events and spaces that re-energized the library program. This gesture coalesces the reinterpretation of light within the library: an enigmatic arrangement of globes; a side lit clerestory lantern; borrowed light and views from the rest of the building. The interior re-structuring expresses itself coyly as a set of new apertures that are clearly legible within the fabric of the original 1970 s brick building. The design aesthetic of the Library expresses Humber s ambitions as a progressive, forward-thinking institution, open to re-interpreting itself for future students and staff.

6 URBAN ECOLOGY CENTRE, TORONTO 2007 I Humber Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning I $3.5 M CDN The Centre for Urban Ecology is an outpost in a garden distant from other suburban educational buildings: a place of contemplation and study for ideas relating to the advancement of technology in the service of the natural world. Viewed from the garden it transcends its setting. Upon arrival, it is transformed into a lens from which the complexities of the urban landscape are revealed through instruction and interaction. The teaching program now uses the building s innovative systems as a demonstration of what can be achieved through intelligent use of building technologies.

7 R.C. HARRIS WATER TREATMENT PLANT, THE BEACHES TORONTO I Toronto Water, City of Toronto I $25 M CDN This designated heritage site was built in the 1930 s and still produces over 45% of the drinking water for Toronto and its burgeoning region. It is a stunning example of forward thinking and its supreme utility is matched only by the sensuous restraint of its Art Deco masonry detailing. These infrastructure projects are important civic utilities and cultural markers. In this case, the necessity of updating the existing technologies has been matched by a corresponding initiative to conserve and restore the building fabric, re-establishing the equilibrium between envelope and fi ltration processes.

8 ALDERLEA HERITAGE ESTATE & ADDITION, BRAMPTON 2010-Present I City of Brampton I $9 M CDN In 2009, Taylor Hazell Architects were retained to restore and adapt the property to so that it could serve as a conference and wedding reception venue. The design exceeds LEED silver standards and features geothermal heating and cooling, triple glazing, radiant heat fl oor, natural ventilation, and a 100% permeable landscape. Limestone, clay brick, ornamental plaster and white oak are used extensively in both the addition and the heritage building. Designed with an eye to low operational costs, the site uses innovative and advanced information technology, maximum fl exibility of programme through a large span structural system to allow for open space planning and events, sustainable technologies and building systems that are easy to operate, and durability of fi nishes with low maintenance, to provide a contemporary addition that will guarantee high value revenue generation for private use. The landscape is designed to enhance the estate qualities associated with the property, while emphasizing its importance as a cultural heritage landscape. It integrates the programmatic role of the site as a private venue, with options for tents and occasions of a public nature as they use and enjoy the site as an integrated part of Gage Park.

9 BUILDING ON HISTORY, EXHIBITION 2008 I Harbour Front Centre The exhibition gave an opportunity to celebrate our collaboration with a local Ontario supplier that developed a new restoration clay brick for general commercial use and the architectural project for extensive renovations to a Catholic monastery in central Toronto. It is a core principle of this position that the recovery of our communities, the design and planning sensibilities that perpetuate these communities, begin with a conservation ethic that seeks to protect these achievements. The installation explores forms for brick masonry and compiles the various pursuits of design, construction and convalescence in the service of reinforcing the threads of history as we move forward.

10 NORTH ST. LAWRENCE MARKET COMPETITION 2011 I Toronto Taylor Hazell Architects submitted a design in cooperation with Montgomery Sisam Architects and Denmark s Gehl Architects. The fi rms design was selected as one of the fi nal fi ve submissions in the competition process. Taylor Hazell Architects developed a contemporary marketplace design with a scale and with materials that refl ect the site s historic attributes and represent a contemporary and sustainable structure. The design that emerged out of the competition is an acknowledged new typology for marketplace design in Toronto. Taylor Hazell Architects interpreted the competition as a regenerative tool for Toronto with respect to transportation, community development and quality of life. The ideas explored in the North St. Lawrence Market competition have been used in subsequent projects and will continue to inform the fi rm s efforts to create sustainable cities and promote quality of life for the communities that live within them.
