温哥华 ─ 通过采用免费的标准化设计，卑诗省民众可以加快进行规划，并以更低成本建造小型多户房屋。
房屋厅长柯议伦 (Ravi Kahlon) 说：「从对公共住房的历史性投资，到打击投机者，再到简化不同类型住房的繁琐程序，我们的政府正在不遗余力地为各地民众提供更多房屋。规范住房设计，使人们能在所属社区内加快建造更多漂亮的房屋。」
大部分设计基于可以组合搭配的「建造单位 (building blocks)」，以增加车库或卧室等结构，并可叠加至三层楼高。这些建造单位包括双排屋、三连屋、四连屋和城市屋设计。其中还包括各种屋顶形状和外部涂层，令所有设计都可以与现有社区无缝融合，与增加住房密度的小型多户住宅的主旨相一致。此外，设计还包括附属住宅单元 (accessory dwelling units，简称 ADUs) 的设计，例如后巷屋和适合居家养老的全面适应性住房。
每项设计均符合 2024 年《卑诗建筑规范》(BC Building Code)，并且可以根据卑诗省不同的地块大小和布局进行定制，还能配合需要进行部分修改，以适应特定的场地条件。设计文件可以免费下载，同时已经汇编成目录，以便于查看。
随着地方政府和建商逐渐了解这些计划，标准化设计将节省时间和成本，从而加快审批和施工。这是《人人安居》(Homes for People) 行动计划的一项关键策略，旨在通过创造条件加快房屋建设，以更快提供更多房屋。
该项目是省府正在进行的部分工作，旨在交付更多小型多户住宅，同时修改一直阻碍房屋建设的过时的土地分区规定。
自 2017 年以来，卑诗省府持续采取行动，为全省各地民众建造住房。迄今为止，全省有近 8 万套房屋已建成或正在建设中。2023 年，省府推出《人人安居》计划，该计划中的行动预计在未来 10 年内交付数十万套房屋。
- 设计包括七种不同概念的小型多户住宅 (small-scale multi-unit housing，简称SSMUH)，以及三种不同概念的附属住宅单元 (ADU)，以上所有设计均可定制高度
- 基于组件的标准化设计是一套工具，可以根据用户需求进行组合搭配。该系统由可互相替换的平面图组成，可以分为两至三层，包括车库和更多卧室的选择。房屋可以个性化选择涂层和屋顶材料，以及不同遮阳设备，例如遮阳篷或前廊这些设计符合第 5 气候区 (Climate Zone 5) 的能源第 4 阶梯 (Energy Step 4)，可以在卑诗省大部分社区中推行。根据当地的能效要求、日照情况和其他因素，这些设计可能在较冷的情况下推行
- 这些设计由一个多领域团队创设：
o Leckie Studio Architecture + Design负责领导设计工作，并创建了线上设计文件和信息目录，供后续设计师参考和修改
o BCollective Homes负责建筑成本分析，并帮助优化了最终的预制式设计
o Carbon Wise Consulting进行了能源建模，并创建了模板化的能源建模文件和合规性检查清单，为后续能源建模员创造了领先优势
o Christine Lintott Architects在设计阶段为Leckie Studio提供了额外技术支持和反馈
o Wiser Projects负责领导早期咨询，并设计了项目要求，以满足地方政府和建筑部分的反馈

People building small-scale, multi-unit housing can plan faster and at a lower cost by using free standardized designs now available to the public.
“From a historic investment in public housing to cracking down on speculators to cutting red tape for different forms of housing, our government is leaving no stone unturned to deliver more housing of all kinds for people everywhere,” said Ravi Kahlon, Minister of Housing. “Set housing designs mean that people will be able to build more beautiful homes in their communities, faster than ever before.”
Most of the designs are based on “building blocks” that can be mixed and matched, to add features such as a garage or bedrooms, and stacked up to three storeys high. They include concepts for duplex, triplex, quadplex and townhouse designs. Also included are a variety of roof shapes and exterior finishes, so all the designs can blend in seamlessly with existing neighbourhoods, keeping with the intent of small-scale, multi-unit housing to add density. There are also designs for accessory dwelling units, such as laneway homes, and a fully adaptable cottage suitable for aging in place.
Each design complies with the 2024 B.C. Building Code and can be customized for different lot sizes and configurations for use throughout B.C., recognizing that minor amendments may be required to manage specific site conditions. Design files are available for download and have also been compiled into a catalogue for ease of viewing, all at no cost.
Standardized design will result in time and cost savings as local governments and builders become familiar with the plans, leading to quicker approvals and construction, which is a key strategy of the Homes for People action plan to unlock more homes faster by creating the conditions to encourage faster housing construction.
This is part of government work underway to deliver more small-scale multi-unit housing to neighbourhoods and fix outdated zoning rules that have stopped these homes from being built.
Starting in 2017, the B.C. government has taken action to deliver homes for people in every part of B.C. To date, nearly 80,000 homes have been delivered or are underway. In 2023, the Province launched the Homes for People plan. Actions included in the plan are expected to deliver hundreds of thousands more homes over the next 10 years.
Quotes:
Dan Winer, executive lead, Small Housing –
“As an advocate for gentle-density housing for several years, Small Housing is thrilled to see the release of standardized housing designs in British Columbia. These free designs will not only provide faster, more affordable housing solutions for residents across the province, but will also encourage industry and financial institutions to get behind modular and off-site construction. We applaud the provincial government and look forward to seeing these homes built in communities across our province.”
Chris Hill, president, BCollective –
“We are excited to see this project come together and potentially create future demand for off-site construction. While these homes don’t necessarily need to be built in a facility, the systemized approach aligns well with the potential for prefabrication. The first standard home project will be like every other home but, with repetition, the entire supply chain will become more efficient, leading to reduced costs and faster, more affordable delivery of homes.”
Michael Leckie, principal, Leckie Studio Architecture + Design –
“Our designs for the Standardized Housing Design Project are intended to be modern interpretations of the local building vernacular across the province. The designs are highly adaptable to a range of site and contextual conditions with multiple options for total floor area, roof form and esthetics. The highly systematic approach to both the design and construction of these small infill housing typologies will complement the streamlined development approval process, providing a co-ordinated effort towards housing attainability in British Columbia.”

Details on B.C.’s standardized housing designs made free to public
- Designs include seven different concepts for small-scale multi-unit housing (SSMUH) and three different concepts for accessory dwelling units (ADU), all of which are highly customizable.
- The component-based standardized design system is a kit of parts that can be mixed and matched to suit users’ needs. The system is composed of interchangeable floor plans that can be layered two- to three-storeys high and includes options for garages and an increased number of bedrooms. The blocks are then paired with a variety of roof shapes. Homes can be personalized with cladding and roofing material selections, as well as optional solar shading devices such as window awnings or a front porch.
- The designs meet Energy Step 4 in Climate Zone 5, making them viable in the communities in which most British Columbians live. They may be viable in colder scenarios depending on local energy-efficiency requirements, sun exposure and other factors.
- The designs were created by a multi-disciplinary team:
- Leckie Studio Architecture + Design led the design effort and created the digital design files and the informational catalogue for subsequent designers to reference and modify.
- BCollective Homes performed construction costing analysis and helped optimize the designs for eventual pre-fabrication.
- Carbon Wise Consulting performed the energy modelling and created templated energy modelling files and compliance checklists to give subsequent energy modellers a head start.
- Christine Lintott Architects provided additional technical support and feedback to Leckie Studio during the design phase.
- Wiser Projects led early consultation and designed the project requirements to meet feedback from local governments and the construction sector.
