C4X - Infill Fast-Track for the City of Kelowna

C4X by Twobytwo Architecture Studio is an architecturally designed two-storey 4-unit infill development aimed at complementing and enhancing Kelowna’s existing residential communities. The thoughtful design aims to gently increase the density of single-family neighborhoods while blending into their architectural context through the use of familiar form and materiality.

C4X combines varying programme typologies to create a multi-generational development complete with four distinct ground-oriented unit layouts among two separate buildings. Two ground floor units are designed to support aging in place each with access to a private garden terrace. Two multi-level units cater to varying family sizes and include an additional and independent live / work space and rooftop terrace. The courtyard-style development incorporates a shared-use courtyard amenity space for residents to enjoy and gain a sense of community.

C4X is BC Energy Code Step 3 compliant and is equipped with HRV and heat pumps to ensure energy is used efficiently to heat and cool. The design uses conventional BCBC Part 9 wood framing techniques, with low impact and minimal site excavation and preparation.​

C4X is designed specifically to suit the new MF1 zoning in the City of Kelowna and is the first available infill fast-track design approved and promoted by the City of Kelowna Planning and Development Department. The design is developed and engineered through a full set of approved architectural drawings for both Development Permit and Building Permit application submissions. Through the City of Kelowna Fast-Track process this project expedites the Permit process substantially, with City permits approved within 10 days of application submission. More detail on the Infill Fast-Track Program can be found on the City of Kelowna's website here.
