PLACE architect Employee Directory

PLACE is an award winning Vancouver architecture firm dedicated to shaping environments that celebrate and nurture the way people work, play and live in them. Collaborators by nature, we work side by side with our clients to develop ideas and dreams into new built places. We are convinced that the best projects come from a respectful sharing of tal... ent and vision, drawing on the diverse perspectives of every member of the team. Our expertise spans a wide range of project types from adventurous modern housing to public recreation, arts and cultural centers, neighborhood retail and urban spaces. Commercial projects, office buildings, and technical work such as healthcare and technology projects make up the balance of our work. The focus is always on weaving community, enhancing constructed and natural ecology with every project.
