The Capers Building

This is a mixed residential/comercial low rise building in the heart of Kitsilano. It was built in 1993 and designed by Harold Kalke who had a philosophy that three development objectives must be met if a building is to be a success:

1. It must positively affect the occupants lives
2. It must make a positive contribution to the neighbourhood
3. It must show the development industry that there is a better way.

He achieved this by installing geo-thermal heating and built in water purification. He was also one of the first to install a double exterior wall system and thermally separated windows for better insulation.
All of the carpets in the building were made from recycled materials and added trees on the roof and surrounding area's of the building to make it an inviting pedestrian environment.

In terms of location, the Capers building is in the heart of Kitsilano, steps to shopping; Capers Market right below, Safeway across the street, Shoppers Drug Mart kitty corner, Market Meats and the list goes on.
