A pictorial journey through an incredible feat of construction.

Merrick juxtaposed just three simple materials when he built his iconic piece of residential architecture. Yet what emerged transcended any individual construction tool. Merrick created a 17-level majestic wonder with spatial gymnastics, an extraordinary sense of materiality, and powerful structural tectonics. Both eccentric and outrageous, it is also truly contextual, a multitude of flying structural wooden columns nestling amidst the massive cedars. Embark on a virtual tour of this remarkable building.

Tony Robins is an architect and writer living in Vancouver B.C., a recipient of numerous awards including the Canadian Prix de Rome, and Western Living's Architect and Interior Designer of the Year award in 2014. He is an Adjunct Professor at UBC's School of Architecture.
