A brown Vancouver house against a grey sky, almost hidden by a tangle of trees, shrubs, grasses and an explosion of red, orange and yellow marigolds, zinnias, poppies and other September flowers.

Three storey Vancouver low-rise grey cement apartment building. A construction crane looms in the background against the blue sky.

A green and brown three-story low-rise apartment building in Vancouver BC. Against a light blue sky scudded with soft clouds, with a yellow Land Rover in the foreground.

A brown three-story Vancouver apartment building at night; the full moon glows in the dark sky and the windows of the building glow pink, orange and yellow, popping out against the shadows in the foreground.

The brightly-lit lobby of a 1960s style residential apartment building, at night. The lobby shines in reds, golds, yellows and whites; the foreground compliments this by existing in shades of cooler grey.

A cozy living room interior scene featuring a bright yellow rocking chair, a highly-patterned rug, shadows that seem to move in the artificial light, and the cool blues of a November evening out the window.

A pink and white striped three-story apartment building in Vancouver BC with a roadsign in the foreground reading “Temporary”

The communal outdoor space of a multi-family housing complex in Vancouver, at dusk. The small lawn is empty and the space near the houses is full of garbage cans, recycling boxes and other detritus. The space is being wasted.

A deep blue sky sets off a beige apartment building with red trim; reflected in the red rhododendron flowers on the bush in the foreground.

A bright yellow two-story house set against an autumn forest and a cloudy sky at dusk; it has rained all day and has recently stopped. The house shines like a beacon in the gloomy weather.

A five-storey New York brownstone apartment building, sandwiched by another on either side.
The building features four windows on each floor, some with air conditioners, cats or homey touches; and intricate decorative stonework at the top.

A three-story wood-frame apartment building at sunset; one apartment and the lobby are lit up, catching the orange and pink tones of the sky. Dozen of crows fill the sky above the building, flying east to their nightly roost.

A yellow three-story wallop apartment building at dusk, just as the stars behind to come out. The balconies of the apartments are filled with details of daily living, including a tiny cat. A high-traffic off ramp and light post are in the foreground.

A white and wood trim house in Australia, complete with a glassed-in veranda and clutch of palm trees. The dirt and grave path cuts through the center of the composition. It is midafternoon; long shadows from the trees, hillside and mailbox.

A soft yellow house against a soft yellow sky with grey clouds; it is late afternoon in the early spring and the trees and plants all around the house have burst into blossom.

A red brick and yellow Irish treatise with a stone retaining wall in the foreground.

A red arts and crafts style house in a bright green lawn with a stone pathway; in the foreground are two blossoming pink cherry trees.

A long rectangular house with white wood siding on top and red brick on the bottom. An open carport sits empty, in shadow. The house features a bay window, a transom over the door, and a lush front garden full of evergreen shrubbery.

A long, white bungalow house in the Palm Springs desert; set against a bright blue sky. The house is surrounded by carefully manicured desert gardens; concrete front yard, and rocky garden beds filled with round shrubbery, cacti and desert plants. A clutch of palm frees sit behind the house, and an assortment of cvolourful planter pots sit in front. The White House gleams in the sun, suggesting the heat of the day.

A run down, soft pink apartment building with red tile roof, against a bright blue sky. Both entrances are at the top of flights of stairs, making the building inaccessible. The front yard is concrete and the only ornamental vegetation are two sharp cacti, echoing this theme.

A small cement house in the California desert, set against a brown scrubby brush land and deep blue sky. The house features a covered front patio with a stone facade, and bright orange window trim.

A view through a blue wooden door, looking into a blue stone hallway. In a shaft of golden light sits a tabby cat, gazing toward the light source.

A blue stone alleyway in Morrocco; half in light and half in shadow. The alley is filled with intricate Morroccan architectural details: doorways, sconces, culverts. All the blue is warmed up by a few pops of brown in the background buildings and a door mat.
