Kicking Horse Residence










Spearhead worked closely with Bohlin Cywinski Jackson Architects, Cascade Engineering and HR Pacific Construction to strategically design and detail this project for off-site fabrication. A kit-of-parts approach enabled the simultaneous manufacturing of multiple components via a single integrated digital fabrication model. The structural heavy timber and steel frame system was completely fabricated and pre-finished prior to delivery, as was a broad range of finish and cladding components throughout the home. This project has won multiple design awards and has been featured in several acclaimed publications.
