Cranbrook Studio
Our Cranbrook studio was founded in 2019 and features a team made up of an Intern Architect/Project Manager and a Technologist. The team is fully supported by our Registered Architects, as well as Senior and Intermediate Technologists. Working in rotation, we function as one big, experienced team with all members working on projects in our four locations. By taking the time to become fully immersed in our projects, we’re able to carefully tailor solutions for each client’s needs.
Current project types run the gamut from educational, religious, commercial, industrial, recreational, hospitality, and residential design. We serve a large region of British Columbia from our Cranbrook architectural firm, encompassing the East Kootenays and beyond.
