Pacific Building

The Pacific Building is an eight storey building in downtown Vancouver completed in 1911. An elegant structure of brick and concrete, finished on the exterior with pressed brick and terracotta. Developed by W. A. Bauer and designed by the architect W. Marbury Somervell of Seattle, the Pacific Building was sold on the quality of its construction. The floors are of solid re-enforced concrete, and the entire structure sanitary, clean, warm and absolutely fireproof, affording every security against damage by fire, and minimum insurance rates. The building is of an architectural type remarkable for its simple elegance of treatment, resulting from the artistic contrast of light and shade, and the fact that it is not overburdened with detail. The textures have been created in Substance Painter and Designer specifcally for this model to give it a high quality, realistic look.
