Mendoza Lane House Designed by Lanefab

The Mendoza Lane House finished by Lanefab in early 2010, as the first ‘laneway house’ in the city of Vancouver. The law allowed for small infill dwellings to be added onto existing single family properties throughout the city. The mendoza lane house is 710sf, 1br + den, with combined living/dining/kitchen upstairs – along with a balcony. It’s built on a standard 33?x122? lot and has the same footprint as the garage it replaced.

The project (like all Lanefab projects) was built with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs) a prefab system that allow us to create buildings that are 2x as energy efficient as typical new home in Vancouver. The windows are triple glazed, and most of the materials for the building were manufactured locally.
