Architectural Office Entry
The entry for this open planned office sets the tone. A meeting room open to the public atrium with a gallery wall showing the architectural firms projects provides window front advertising. Punchy lime green retro reception chairs punctuate this space.

Architectural Office Entrance
The public view from the building atrium. The play and movement of natural light is an important element for architects to create space.

Architectural Office Reception
Reception is framed with the back of the kitchen collaboration area, which references a fume hood, and a work wall of storage.

Front Desk
The board room and partners' offices are tucked beneath the mezzanine which houses all computer servers. Simple, clean lines and retrained colour allows for certain areas of interest to pop. Along the right are a series of custom made barn doors of fluted glass which open to the board room.

Architectural Open Office Space
This overview of the studio shows how an open planned concept requires careful attention to functional space planning, unified colour schemes and overall simplicity. This studio is visible from a full length Southern facing window as well as the interior public atrium, so vantage points had to be considered from every angle

Office Space
The punch use of this blue carries thru both partners' offices and the board room, and references the vintage framed architectural blueprints. The use of baltic birch plywood with exposed edges distills design down to its cleanest elements.

Partner's Office
The partners' offices are open to the studio, encouraging collaboration and team work. The wood decking on the underside of the mezzanine and plywood custom furniture is beautifully offset by the intense blue walls. There is a real visual pop in this space.

Boardroom
The large fluted glass barn doors open the board room to the studio. The custom board room table created from an old bowling alley is a real focal point and conversation piece. Obscured fluted glass was selected to allow full transference of natural light into the board room, without sacrificing any privacy while in the meeting.

Boardroom Interior
This board room table was custom made from a vintage bowling alley, complete with walnut markings, which direct attention to the projection board. This table has become a real conversation piece!

Open Office
Recycled brick from the MaRS building was purchased and installed along the studio back wall to anchor the space. 16' long shelving unit is suspended from the ceiling, providing storage and display in an edgy format

Studio Collaboration Space
An old vintage gas pump, retrofit with a fish tank creates a whimsical frame for the studio collaboration space, along with vintage barn lights highlighting the salvaged brick. There is a seamless balance between rustic, industrial and contemporary cutting edge throughout this space.

Open Breakroom & Office Kitchen
This is the kitchen "collaboratory", a place where staff come to eat, meet and collaborate. The design is based on industrial bio fume hoods where research is conducted. The stainless steel island and cabinetry pays reference to medical laboratories, while the custom retro eating counter made from a vintage bowling alley, personalizes the space.
