The Trans Mountain oil pipeline system is expected to operate at full capacity in April and into May as a result of energy disruptions caused by the war in the Middle East. The pair of pipelines transport oil from Edmonton to a terminal in Burnaby, B.C. Typically, the majority of the exported oil is destined for China and other Asian countries, which now have a growing appetite for energy as global supplies are constrained by the conflict. A full pipeline system would represent a milestone that Trans Mountain was only expecting to reach in a few years. The pipeline was operating between 80 and 90 per cent capacity 12 months ago.

Lakeside House, Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada,

The home is a showcase of an architect who greatly admired and took inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright, not just in style but also in principle.

In 1951 Hollingsworth met Wright who invited him to join Taliesin but he declined, preferring instead to stay in Canada to further develop his ideas of Canadian west coast modernism through a Usonian lens.

The Lakeside house can be seen as a crystallization of Hollingsworth’s principles where craftsmanship, proportion, livability, and deep site-responsive consideration all coalesce into a timeless, organic form.

Designed by Fred Hollingsworth in 1988,
