Regina home wins architectural award [Video]

Jane Arthur and her husband David began a unique construction project in 2014. Now, a decade later, their home in Regina’s Cathedral neighbourhood has won a title in the Urban House and Villa category at the World Architecture Festival.

“Sort of on a whim, contacted them and said we’d be interested in building a house, partly because David is a craftsman himself.

We contacted them and it kind of snowballed from there,” Jane explained.
