Vancouver Urbanism: Tourism and the Seawall
Various images of Vancouver Urbanism: Tourism and the Seawall

Tourism is the second largest industry in BC, and Vancouver has always been a must-go. Despite the economic benefits it brings to the city, tourism has its setbacks.

Our fundamental standpoint is to find a balance between the two dichotomies: the image vs. the reality; the visitor vs. the resident; HERE vs. THERE. The project is an intervention of the seawall – a path that wraps around Vancouver where tourists and residents frequent.
