Contenido parcial: Ulster House, our cover story, is the home of LGA Architectural Partners co-founders Janna Levitt and Dean Goodman—and also a prototype for missing middle housing in Toronto. Jaliya Fonseka reports on the project, which replaces a single-family home with five units, each with their own front door and thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces. - Halifax firm FBM has similarly used their own building as a prototype, in this case constructing a mixed-use infill that proves the viability of mass timber in the Atlantic Provinces. T.E. Smith-Lamothe visits the mid-rise, which combines three storeys of office space with a half-dozen apartments, topped with a shared roof garden. - Contributor Michael Carroll takes us even further east, reporting from Fogo Island, Newfoundland. He explores how local designer Kingman Brewster’s projects are continuing the legacy of contemporary architecture launched by the Fogo Island Inn and Studios a decade ago. - We also look back at Banff Centre’s Leighton Artist Studios, a set of eight retreats, built 40 years ago, each by a different architect—which continue to host visual artists, writers, and composers to this day. - This month’s editorial viewpoint considers the HouseEurope! campaign championing anti-demolition, pro-renovation policies for the EU—an effort documented in a current exhibition at Montreal’s CCA. Peter Sealy also visits the CCA to review an exhibition showcasing Arthur Erickson’s travel photography and letters. - Within our pages, the RAIC Journal includes two articles on sourcing bio-based materials to address upfront carbon, and a field report from Japan on design for an aging population. - Our issue is rounded out by a set of book reviews, including a new book on Toronto’s Casa Loma and Alberto Pérez-Gómez’s two-volume Alliterative Lexicon of Architectural Memories.
