In this episode, we sit down with Wilmer Lau, partner at TOMO Spaces alongside Mark Shieh, to explore their journey in reimagining community living through innovative housing solutions. Wilmer shares insights from his eight years in China, the transformation of New Westminster’s River Market, and the vision behind TOMO Main’s co-housing project. We discuss why co-housing remains rare in Vancouver, the opportunities and challenges of multiplex developments, and the importance of “aging in place.” From Kitsilano projects to addy’s first property at Trout Lake, Wilmer provides a candid look at the rewards and risks of building vibrant, community-oriented homes.
