ARTHUR ERICKSON’S DYDE HOUSE

55' | 4K

Long before Arthur Erickson built many of Canada’s most iconic buildings, he was a young architect for a family looking to build a home in the Alberta prairies. Deeply private, the Dyde family gave him space to explore his bold vision for a Canadian architectural style, with one caveat — the home was a secret, not to be published or promoted. In 2016, a group of architects discovered the old home nestled away in 50 acres of pristine jack pine and wetlands; a hidden treasure in dire need of repair but rich in the architectural language that defined a career.
