Ian Moxon Architect Inc. is pleased to have collaborated with Sanayut Consulting Professional Engineers Corporation to provide the design and construction of a new single-storey cultural centre, a two-storey office/hotel facility, and a stand-alone outdoor workshop within the community of Tuktoyaktuk, NWT.
Designed after a traditional sod house, the cultural centre has a Great Hall to showcase various art forms, a museum space to display artifacts and host travelling exhibits. The office & hotel offers a large boardroom and various admin support rooms on the main floor to support staff, community organizations and business groups.
The second-floor hotel layout offers 15 hotel units and two dedicated apartment spaces, attracting artists and servicing the local tourism requirements. The Gift Shop acts as a common gathering place and an artist workshop to support the Great Hall activities.
