Architecture49 is a national leader in the design and delivery of some of Canada’s most important and iconic built projects and places. With nine offices and a team of over 350 staff, we harness the strength of a multi-disciplinary view to influence design that is culturally, environmentally, and geographically sensitive to the varied and unique characteristics of our country and our clients.
As an organization, we believe that our communities are enriched by a broader, more enlivened collaboration between clients, builders, architects, engineers, interior designers, landscape architects, and urban planners. Our philosophy is to strive for creative solutions while respecting contextual concerns and achieving technical excellence.
We seek to be innovative without being trendy, to be responsive to the client, and responsible to the community. We believe that well-designed spaces have transformative abilities, providing opportunities for the creation of icons and landmarks that invite and unite communities. By understanding how people interact with and within these spaces, and by engaging in the practice of collaborative design, our team creates inspiring spaces that elevate the health, social vitality, history, and sustainability of our built environment.
