The Argyle

 

The Argyle: 2140 Argyle Avenue West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

 

A slender tower of glass and stone, The Argyle is a fitting tribute to the last true waterfront site in West Vancouver. Nine expansive homes merge indoor and outdoor spaces with unbroken views across the deep blue waters. Responding to the quiet beauty of this site, the architect designed a translucent structure receding into its surroundings with an ethereal sense of light & airiness.
A wall of water flows from the dramatic curving rooftop into a reflecting pool in the garden, a soothing soundscape that captivates the eye. The Argyle by Quigg is rare in every respect: a living experience that can never be replicated.
