A Good, Solid, Community-Minded Building. [Vancouver, Canada]
Globe Real Estate; May 2008
Description of King David High School by Vancouver's Acton Ostry Architects, awarded a Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia Architecture Award from the Architectural Institute of British Columbia. Design partner Russell Acton summarizes the "simplicity and modesty" in the school's design this way: "Spare and durable architectural finishes were selected to convey mass and permanence: poured-in-place concrete, integrally coloured concrete block, Jerusalem stone, heavy glulam columns and beams, cedar siding, coloured glass panels, birch plywood, timber benches and anodized aluminum window frames."
It is not only this palette of materials but also the logical sequence of spaces and tight floor plans that makes King David the best school built in the province in several years.
