GAUDI INSPIRED BOUTIQUE RESIDENCE IN DOWNTOWN VANCOUVER

MODERN VANCOUVER ARCHITECTURE - CONDOS AND HOMES 

"The Developer James Schouw is known for creating developments which offer form, art, and design with inspiration from Gothic European structures"

"On my recent trip to Europe I toured some Gaudi works in Barcelona including the Casa Batllo, and I could see the influence on this building upon my return.  As you enter the building through the lobby towards the main hall, the walls are curved, and not symmetrical, and with high arched ceilings, leaving some mystery behind each corridor and door way."

The building exterior features large facades of marble, double height windows, opulent mouldings, classical style multi-pane windows, and a dramatic black-and-white floral mosaic entrance floor out front of the lobby. From the lobby to the suites there is beautiful compilation of curves, modernized gothic decorations, tall doorways and mouldings to give a grandiose feeling throughout.  Also the use of curves and intricate design, allows each suite in the building to feel individualized.

There is a noteworthy luxury property we have listed this week that I feel is Decoist worthy.  The architecture is very unique and there is a story behind the design.  It is in one Vancouver’s most dramatic architectural boutique buildings.  The 21 unit building was recently completed and named “Artemisia” after a 17th century Italian baroque painter.
