Summary
Eagles Nest is a four-storey 33 unit affordable housing complex for
low-income aboriginal people in Williams Lake BC. Primarily wood-frame
construction, the building sports a high-performance building envelope
and efficient mechanical system. In addition to the residential units 4
offices are provided for staff. There are several amenity spaces
including a lounge, kitchen, coin-operated laundry, and Smudge Room. The
Smudge Room is a quiet place where residents can reflect, meet with a

ventilation system. The fourth floor is entirely segregated for women in
