INSTITUTIONAL WOOD DESIGN: LARGE Jennifer Marshall, Urban Arts Architecture T’it’q’et Community Hall + Health Centre, Lillooet, BC The T’it’q’et Community Hall and Health Centre project is con- structed entirely of wood with the exception of the foundations. The building is constructed using a combination of wood frame for the short span areas with a glulam post and beam with Cross- laminated Timber (CLT) panels infill for the large span spaces (Multi-purpose and Hall). Exterior finishes are a combination of rough-sawn vertical cedar siding, smooth face #1 grade horizontal cedar siding and pine soffits. Interior finishes consist of plywood paneling, exposed CLT and glulams, carved cedar doors, birch-faced doors, and pine ceilings. INSTITUTIONAL WOOD DESIGN: SMALL Dave McIntyre, David Nairne + Associates Ltd. Yunesit’in Health Centre, Hanceville, BC “Wood Tradition Continued” ‘Dramatic Douglas fir wood glulam columns combined with exposed Douglas fir ceilings and soffits, doors and millwork re- spect Yunesit’in cultural traditions in an important new community facility.’ The new 432m2 health centre developed by the Yunesit’in of BC’s Cariboo Chilcotin (known to them as the “Land without Lim- its”) is a contemporary interpretation of the Yunesit’in dwelling and evolves the Yunesit’in tradition of using wood to create struc- ture and finishes which define their place in their “Land without Limits”. INTERIOR BEAUTY DESIGN James Tuer, JWT Architecture and Planning Forest House, Bowen Island, BC Wood was used throughout the interior both as a finishing ma- terial as well as the primary structure which is exposed and cele- brated like a fine piece of furniture. The Douglas fir framing, posts and beams lends itself to the natural forest setting and connects the occupants to the surrounding nature. Over time, the fir will patina with age and create a soft and Zen-like environment. In se- lect areas the wood is painted bright red creating a wonderful cel- ebratory accent reminiscent of the Scandinavian heritage of the home owners The Canadian Design and Construction Report — Spring 2014 – 53
