DESIGN INSPIRATION

• Design concept: Flow, Flight and Fusion

• Approach: City Meets Nature

• Elements of curved and linear forms were taken

from the nearby Fraser River and the wild birds (the

heron) that inhabit its estuary. . Architecturally, the

curving roof recalls a heron’s wing. The roofline of

the Oval also mirrors the outline of the stylized

heron that is the centrepiece of the city’s logo

Heron symbolise

‘The graceful & elegant’

The two lower floors of the building are cast-in-place concrete. Extending through the floors

are massive, inclined concrete buttressessit sit on pile caps that distribute buttress loading to

pile resistance from which the great arched roof springs.

A number of wood based cabinets, counters,

displays and a variety of screening panels

have been created

through the business and special usage areas

of the facility.

Wood doors, moldings and trims have also

been used to accent the building.

Some of the wood incorporated into the

finishing details originated from the trees

harvested on the site prior to construction.
