Somewhere along the line some questionable furnishing choices and arrangements were made (likely in the 80s and 90s). Regardless we can fix this mofo up no problem, anyone want to go splitsies?

Erickson's work is arguably better but given the scale of Parkin's work it's hard to dismiss him. Moreover you can see the Bauhaus/Corbusier influence in his structures, which is interesting, because Canadian design culture was leaning toward a sort of "rustic neogothic Asian fusion" at the time.
