1661 Freeman Avenue Townhomes, Victoria BC

The design aesthetic for 1661 Freeman is inspired by Arts and Crafts, with a modern interpretation of the style. High quality and durable materials such as brick and shakes, together with tasteful trim detailing, pitched roofs, and a monochromatic colour pallet, give homes a classic timelessness.

The homes facing onto Freeman have prominent brick porticos that clearly delineate unit entrances, while a brick upstand wall with iron fence detail visually separates private and public realm. Brick planters with plants separate unit patios.

Careful attention is given to details such as keystones in brick arches, dentil trims, decorative vents, classical light fixtures, and window mullions to ensure the quality of design stands out.

Paved walkways connect homes to the proposed new public sidewalk, activating Freeman’s frontage, while still being separated from public with the boulevard lawn and proposed trees.
