Creating the Neighbourhood

Located on the corner of Pepperell St. and Robie St in Halifax this mixed-use building transitions from the large-scale building context of Quinpool Road into what are primarily single-family residential neighbourhoods to the south and west. The primary density is located in the northeastern corner of the site to allow for a southern exposure to the internal courtyard.

The building steps down to walk-up townhouse units along the two bordering residential streets to integrate and activate the neighbourhood streetscape.

The corner has a double-height commercial space to create a neighbourhood anchor and an interesting corner address to the building. The use of human-scaled materials, formal articulation, and strategic massing result in a building that reinforces and improves the neighbourhood's character.

Fathom was responsible for planning approval, architectural design, interior design, brand development, wayfinding and signage.
