The Lakeberg Residence by Thompson, Berwick & Pratt Architects is now live online and will soon appear on international newsstands. As the story reveals, “A modernist icon that has been hiding in plain sight for the last 68 years.” Built in 1957, “A Vancouver time capsule preserving an unpublished mid-century modern landmark.” Once considered “one of Vancouver’s most expensive homes to be built at the time,” the Southlands estate remains remarkably intact — a study in symmetry, slate, and sunlight. Read the full story online and discover why this rediscovered landmark is captivating audiences worldwide.
