5aEPYukp69j6sQ1fCLOiTke01_TPMyGQN4J4DeHdAa4MSNx2YDRDpO>  sixth annual
home tour takes place Saturday, July 9th from 12pm to 4pm and features
five significant West Coast modern homes. 

 

>From the 1953 Plommer Residence by Fred Hollingsworth to a stunning
recently completed contemporary home by Mason Kent, this year's
spectacular line-up of homes offers participants an unique opportunity
to visit a diversity of private homes. 

Constructed like a bridge and spanning over a rocky outcrop, the 1983
Dan White designed Taylor House has breath-taking ocean views. 

 

Built by Lauder and Tate in a manner of Thompson Berwick and Pratt, a
1959 house sits on the end of a cul-de- sac oriented toward the
surrounding forest and illustrates early principles of mid-century post
and beam design. This modest house has been sensitively renovated by
architect James Hancock for his family.

 

A 1954 house, originally built on a gravel road, had fallen into
disrepair before being transformed into a unique modern house by
landscape architect Don Vaughan. Over many years, Vaughan renovated his
house to create a setting where architecture, art and landscape are
integral to the overall design.

 

Tour participants will receive a complete information package with
details of all tour homes when they check in. In addition to an
architect-guided bus tour, a self-guided option is available. 

 

Sponsored by the British Pacific Properties, a wine reception serving
appetizers donated by over fifteen West Vancouver restaurants will take
place immediately following the home tour at the Eagle Harbour Yacht
Club.

  

Home tour participants will have an exclusive opportunity to purchase
raffle tickets to win a limited-edition print, Tangled Beach, by Gordon
Smith. The raffle winner will be announced at the reception after the
tour. In addition, we will be giving away an iconic framed photograph,
B.C. Electric Head Office 1957, by Selwyn Pullan (printed and signed in
2008) to a one lucky participant.
