Located on the doorstep of Banff National Park, the Town of Canmore is fast becoming a major world class resort destination.  With this in mind, the vision for Silvertip Village is based on creating a world class resort village inspired by the wisdom and charm of mountain villages and hill towns of the European Alps.  Under its predecessing firm Civic Design Group, T-Six prepared the village master plan and a detailed architectural pattern book.  The design process was initiated by a 10-day tour of the European Alps by Civic Design Group Principals, and the Client to carefully study precedents. Silvertip Village will have a distinctly urban village character with an emphasis on a vibrant mixed-use pedestrian oriented environment.  World class architects including Urban Design Associates (UDA) of Pittsburgh, Victor Deupi of New York, Krier-Bontempi of Parma, Italy, and Leon Krier have been engaged to exemplify the new Silvertip Style.
