Description

Griblin House by Hassell/Griblin + Associates is now live online and will soon appear on international newsstands. As the story reveals, “Designed to defer to the land rather than dominate, the house forms a sanctuary that captures and filters the shifting coastal light.” Originally designed and built in 1973 by Barry Griblin as his personal residence, this landmark tree house sits above the Fisherman’s Cove Marina. Conceived as a minimal cube stepping across six interlocking split levels, cedar, concrete, and expansive glazing frame sweeping views to the boats, ocean, and surrounding forest. Read the full story online and discover why this defining work of West Coast Modern architecture offers a rare opportunity to steward a piece of British Columbia’s design legacy.
