Deloitte Summit is a 24-storey office tower made up of several clusters of four-storey steel-framed cubes arranged around a central concrete core. The office will feature glass floors overlooking the city, roof terraces under overhanging volumes, vertical gardens framing views of the mountains and the largest rooftop amenity in Vancouver.

The character of the work space at Deloitte Summit is designed to be open, fluid, flexible, but also diverse. This new, creative work environment elicits collaboration, creativity, and spontaneity. The boxes create natural compartments within a continuous floorplate, allowing offices to be variously partitioned while also staying close to the façade. The floors and ceilings of the cantilevering portions are glazed to visually link the garden, the offices, and the street below. The resulting diversity of spaces is complimented by the diversity of views, whose orientation is not only horizontal, but also vertical.

Habitat Horticulture was hired to design and develop a living wall system that was non-combustible to meet Vancouver's fire code requirement.  This project was the impetus for creating our Growpro (link to https://www.habitathorticulture.com/our-systems) living wall system.  After a value engineering exercise and access feasibility study, the living walls were changed to a vine trellis system using perforated laser cut metal as the trellis.  Habitat Horticulture consulted on the vine species for each facade exposure as well as the planter build up and facade material.
