Cameron Garden Suite

The Cameron Garden Suite was one of the first ‘garden’ suites in Edmonton, Alberta. Built on a quiet lane in the neighbourhood of Westmount, the majority of the living space was built at-grade, alongside a double car garage, which makes it ideal for ‘aging in place’. This 520 square foot suite features structural insulated panel construction, which allowed us to maximize the height and openness of the interior space to for a sleeping loft, while keeping the height of the whole suite to a minimum and under the zoning height regulations at the time. The suite also uses in-floor heating and fibreglass windows for a high level of comfort. The design is contemporary and open, with floor-to-ceiling glass facing the family’s rear yard. The exterior is a combination of stucco, corrugated metal and cedar siding for an inviting yet relatively maintenance free envelope.

This project has been featured many City of Edmonton videos on garden suites and ‘aging in place’, as well as featured in Avenue Edmonton Magazine.
