Archistar is excited to announce our partnership with Malahat Nation and DIGITAL as they embark on developing one of Canada’s leading master-planned communities. This project will harness Archistar’s proven 3D Generative AI Building Design technology to support Malahat Nation in revolutionising their building design and approval process.
About the Project
Malahat Nation’s land spans approximately 2,260 acres, located between Victoria and Mill Bay on Vancouver Island. Nestled beneath the Malahat mountain range along the western shore of Saanich Inlet, this landscape presents opportunities for housing development. Malahat Nation is dedicated to making meaningful progress in housing, health and safety initiatives.
Malahat Nation is one of many diverse communities in British Columbia striving to rapidly and effectively plan and develop new housing solutions to tackle the Nation’s housing challenges. By leveraging innovative digital technologies, this project aims to set a precedent for faster, more efficient, and sustainable housing solutions that incorporate the unique needs of every community.
With a strong commitment to sustainability, efficiency and community engagement, this project aims to set a new standard for urban development that blends technological innovation and a Nation-led approach.
