Good Way Homes partnered with Patkau Architects, one of Canada’s most storied and celebrated architecture firms, to design the Acâhkos (ah-CHAH-koh-sis) House.
Our vision of a beautifully designed, high performance home is perfectly articulated in the Acâhkos House, a place where friends and family can live, gather and make memories together. The Acâhkos House is our first model in the Wahkohtowin (Wah-KOH-toh-win) Series, a Cree concept meaning kinship and interconnectedness, which aligns deeply with Good Way Homes and our pursuit of a holistic approach to construction. We believe this approach will move beyond simply building structures to fostering community, upholding cultural values, and ensuring a sustainable future.
This climate resilient home features an open concept kitchen and living space, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The light and brightness of the design inspired the name Acâhkos, which means Little Star in Cree, the root of the name "acak," meaning energy or light; we are honoured to use this name.
