Dogfish Bay : structure and immersion Quadra Island wine

University of British Columbia

This project is a design of a winery and vineyard on Quadra Island, British Columbia. A precedent study of 2 vineyards and a site suitability study including soil, vegetation and shadow studies were conducted to determine the feasibility of wine production on the site. These studies also informed the placement of agricultural and built components on the site. The concept based upon tectonics (or structure) and the immersion into the working environment, guided the organization of site characteristics. The goal of this project was to design a landscape that can evolve through time while supporting the residents of the site. A winery and vineyard have the capacity to fill various niches. They can become an integral place within a community where private property can be welcoming and occupiable by the public.
