100 Yorkville at Bellair is a mixed-use development in the heart of Yorkville, a densely urban district of high-end retail, dining, and residences. Traversing the centre of a block, the project weaves itself in and around the existing neighbourhood. Organized around a landscaped courtyard, the development includes retail, commercial, and residential uses. The western and eastern edges are bookended by two condominium towers of 8 and 17 storeys. To the north, along Scollard Street, a row of traditionally-styled townhouses help the project blend with the low-rise, Victorian-era surroundings. The southwestern edge, along Yorkville Avenue, incorporates the 1923 façade of the original Mount Sinai Hospital. Completing the southern streetscape is a two-storey retail building that is interrupted by a row of existing houses.

The project employs a visual vocabulary of light and colour, material and texture, openness and shelter. A common approach to architectural detail and expression unifies the structures.
