Development team
Architect
Eric Barker, of the award-winning firm Eric Barker Architects, has long been a vital part of Greater Victoria’s design landscape and is renowned for creating projects that combine meaning with pleasing aesthetics and quality design. Barker’s philosophy is that architectural designs must be appropriate, sustainable and have a long-term fit in terms of the ecological, social, cultural and historical contexts of the neighbourhoods of which they are part. His team conscientiously combines originality, integrity, and imagination to create successful projects; from the very beginning they identify and explore the potential to enrich the comfort and relevance of the design for homeowners, both today and into the future.
