JAPAVARIAN 3992
2024 | VANCOUVER, BC | DEVELOPEMENT PERMIT
​
Introducing Japavarian 3992, Longpre Architecture's latest residential marvel in Vancouver, executed in partnership with a local developer. This exclusive fourplex stands as a new benchmark in blending cultural architectural elements with modern living, creating a distinct urban sanctuary in the city's dynamic heart.
​
Nestled in a vibrant neighbourhood, Japavarian 3992 showcases a unique architectural synthesis of a Vancouver Special and a Bavarian farmhouse, interwoven with the refined touch of English manor-style brickwork. The design philosophy behind Japavarian 3992 extends the ethos of our signature 'Japavarian' style—focusing on a central house form that gracefully integrates supplementary structures, not as mere extensions but as integral components of the overall aesthetic.
​
The central feature of Japavarian 3992 is its imposing gable structure, reminiscent of a cathedral, which anchors the building both visually and spiritually. This central element is surrounded by additions that peel away and reveal themselves in brick, ensuring that the material adds texture and depth without overwhelming the design's core. This strategic use of brick enhances the sense of discovery and privacy, encapsulating the sacred space within which residents can retreat from the external world into their own secluded haven.
​
Each unit within the complex boasts thoughtfully designed rooftop patios, seamlessly incorporated into the structure, offering residents private outdoor spaces that feel like a natural extension of their living areas rather than an afterthought. These spaces provide a panoramic view of the bustling city while maintaining a sense of seclusion and peace.
​
At Longpre Architecture, we don't just build homes; we sculpt environments that foster well-being, privacy, and a deep connection to one’s surroundings. Japavarian 3992 is a testament to this vision, presenting a lifestyle that harmoniously blends community interaction with intimate living spaces.
