Streaming video - 2015

With new innovative designs, including 2-storey units, the reinvented high-rise is changing the face of cities. 1. The Glassworks, by architect Barry J. Hobin, is a loft-style condominium containing 31 units in a prime Ottawa location. 2. MVRDV designed the Silodam, which uses modern materials and spaces to create a play on traditional Dutch architecture. 3. The District Lofts, Peter Clewes's new building in downtown Toronto, uses space and orientation to maximize the view and position of units in the building.
