So let me tell you a few features of the property that may help:
- There will most likely be running water features at the front and back of the dwelling.
- The property is surrounded by 8 120ft+ tall cedars (fortunately they are generally to the North West to block the evening summer sun that would otherwise overheat the house)
- The house will be built to a Passivhaus theme (ie. very well insulated and air tight with high performing windows)
- We will have a very low slop roof (almost flat)
- The theme of the design will be 'Modern West Coast' and will involve a lot of natural woods.
- We are located in North Vancouver near the Capilano River but do not have a view (except will have partial view of mountains - Grouse - once we have a second floor.
- The rear (west) and south side of the dwelling will be flower gardens, vegetable and fruit gardens, paths, arbours, waterfall, man made stream, pond, bridge, etc. No lawns.
- The property is flat.
I reserve the name "Singing Waters" and would love to hear your take on this choice.
I look forward to your input.
