Laneway Homes in Vancouver: Small Works Builds with Standard Building Supplies Materials

A new East Vancouver project by Small Works shows how quality materials from Standard Building Supplies are helping shape the next generation of laneway homes in Vancouver.

A new addition to the growing collection of laneway homes in Vancouver highlights how thoughtful design and trusted local suppliers can elevate small-scale construction. 

Built by Small Works and supplied by Standard Building Supplies, the East Vancouver Chalet blends craftsmanship, sustainability, and West Coast style.

Building better laneway homes in Vancouver

Known for redefining compact urban living, Small Works has built some of the most admired laneway homes in Vancouver. Their East Vancouver Chalet project showcases warm cedar siding, black-framed windows, and a gabled roofline — all materials supplied by Standard Building Supplies.

A landscaped yard and concrete walkway leads to a bright interior featuring polished concrete floors, solid oak window casings, and a freestanding wood stove that adds both character and comfort.

Materials that bring laneway homes in Vancouver to life

From cedar siding to interior finishes, every element of this home reflects the connection between good materials and great design. Small Works’ attention to detail — including preserving the property’s mature garden — underscores how laneway living can be both modern and mindful.

Standard Building Supplies is proud to support Vancouver builders like Small Works, providing high-quality materials that bring innovation and craftsmanship together in every project.
