Designing for Family: CoStar’s Multi-Generational Multiplexes in Vancouver

In this session, Louis (Louie) Nguyen of CoStar Construction pulls back the curtain on building multiplexes that keep families close—grandparents on the ground floor, young families above, everyone with their own space. Louie walks through two active East Vancouver projects (Killarney’s We Kalani on E 54th and a five-plex on E 40th), showing how thoughtful details—step-free ground-level suites, 36" doors, accessible bathrooms, optional in-suite elevators, work-from-home nooks, triple-pane windows, heat-pump HVAC, and real storage—turn multiplex living into true multi-generational living.

You’ll see exterior and interior concepts (modern farmhouse/West Coast with brick accents), learn how private gardens foster grandparent–grandchild connection, and hear candid notes on power service choices (PMT/LPT), parking trade-offs, safety practices, and warranties (2-5-10 plus extended appliances). Louie also shares CoStar’s design ethos—simplicity with purpose—the influence of the classic Vancouver Special, collaboration with Jamie Banfield Design, and the team’s Georgie Award–winning craftsmanship.

Perfect for buyers, homeowners, and developers exploring multiplex potential—especially those aiming to age in place, support parents, and create resilient family compounds—this talk blends practical specs, site walk-throughs, timelines (targeting 2026 completions), and an open invitation for early-stage customization and buyer tours.

Have questions or want to explore how multiplexes could work for you?

Whether you’re a developer, buyer, investor, or homeowner, I’d love to connect.
