Designing a Multi-family Building : Lessons Learned by Zulueta   Architecture Transcript of the video :  Right now I am at the front of the building and this is a building that I designed a few years ago. This is a four-story multi-family Residential Building. It has 16 residential units above ground and it has one level of parking. So this building is located in Calgary, Alberta. This photo shows the the back of the building. This photo shows the east side of the building. This photo shows one of the size of the building which is the west side. This shows the back of the building and as you can see it is right against the park. And so one interesting feature of this property is that it doesn't have any back alley, which also poses a challenge. So this is a shot of the driveway.   Originally the driveway was on the east side of the property and when we built this- The driveway was moved on the west side of the property.

The global pandemic has brought about how acutely our societies are interdependent with one another. At the same token, it has brought attention to each nation having to stand independent, having its own systems and infrastructure in place to sustain itself.

I usually lead them to check the CACB website - Canadian Architectural Certification Board .

The BEFA is a process where your experience will be evaluated  by the program, and their is an interview afterwards. When I was looking into getting registered as an architect, the BEFA program did not exist at that time. There
