Community Centre design project:
Designed for the Woodland Cree people of Beaver Lake in Northern Alberta, is Beaver Lake Community Centre. This community centre's main goal is to serve as a space for teaching and provide an opportunity for all to engage in traditions, values, and the teachings of the past to ensure their culture is not forgotten through the generations.

PUBLIC SPACES
In an effort to further foster connections with the community, the space functions as a gathering place to celebrate all that the rich culture has to offer.

FLOORPLAN
A strong focus on natural materials including wood, stone and other elements of biophilia that are directly reflective of the surrounding environment are essential to the overall success of the design, as the Woodland Cree's distinct history denotes a significant connection to the land.

REFLECTED CEILING PLAN
"This land is our spiritual, physical, and economic homeland.
We keep this land in honour of our ancestors and on behalf of our
future generations, so that as long as the sun shines, and the grass
grows, we can continue our traditional way of life."
- Beaver Lake Community Leader and Chief
