Coast + Beam was established in 2014 to give visible and tangible form to the spirit of West Coast modern architecture on Vancouver Island. Think of it as a backlash to the Hardie Board clad, toxin producing, ozone depleting, disposable and disconnected way of modern life. A return to nature as it were.
We specialize in Architecture created from natural materials such as wood, stone and light. A connection to nature created by blurring the lines between inside and out. Protective places of refuge where roofs have deep overhangs and wide, folding glass partitions beneath. A natural habitat upon which we touch lightly, build respectfully and live fully.
