Sargent’s Bay, Sunshine Coast, BC

Located on a waterfront site in Sargent’s Bay on the Sunshine Coast, this project was conceived by a client how had held onto two 8’x20’ containers from their home renovation several years back. We repurposed these containers by placing them with an atrium space between; located a shed roof over the atrium and placing the containers’ open ends facing the views. The sides facing the atrium were cut open to create an open floor space plan. The resulting new structure is now an AirBNB available for nightly rental. Clear cedar clads some of the building while the raw steel of the containers becomes a feature where open to the exterior. Even the doors were repurposed creating a unique yet still very west coast retreat.
