In this episode, Cherise is joined by Phil Silverstein, Partner at Moriyama Teshima Architects with offices in Toronto and Ottawa, Canada. They discuss Limberlost Place at George Brown College in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

You can see the project here as you listen along.

Limberlost Place asserts itself on Toronto’s East Bayfront as a paradigm of contemporary sustainable architecture—an elegant synthesis of structure, performance, and civic expression. In addition to sustainability woven into every layer of the design, the structure employs a beamless system with exposed glulam columns and CLT slab bands that establish a rational yet refined structural grid, eliminating the need for deep beams and enabling large, column-free spans.
