Peterborough
Animal Care Centre

The 24,250 sq.ft Peterborough Animal Care Centre is one of Canada’s most advanced animal care facility. The building incorporates three functions under one roof: Peterborough Humane Society, the Ontario SPCA Provincial Rehabilitation Facility, and a Regional Spay/Neuter Clinic.

The CSC Chigamik Community Health Centre is a significant new addition to the town of Midland, Ontario. Perched on a prominent site just outside of the town centre, the building occupies green space adjacent Edgehill Park. Set in this beautiful context, it takes its position gracefully tucked into the side of hill and draws from the natural features in the choice of exterior cladding; wood siding and clay brick.

Oakville Firehall No. 8 reconsiders what is possible when looking at the construction of a building type that is meant to be robust. This building will combine known technology – Glulam (Glue Laminated Timber) and CLT (Cross Laminated Timber) – and provide both structural and envelope elements as a complete mass timber solution that is modular, panelized and easily repeatable.

Barrie-Simcoe
Emergency Services Campus

The concept for the Barrie-Simcoe Emergency Services Campus is to bring together the Barrie Police Service, Barrie Fire and Emergency Service and Simcoe County Paramedic Services together on a shared campus in a partnership arrangement where each party will benefit. Through shared space and staff amenities, each partner will have access to more efficient and improved facilities as compared to what would be feasible or affordable in separate standalone buildings.

Floor to ceiling windows allow view overlooking the runway. There is an "L" shaped welcome desk and seating for students and guests.

Brock Mission

Brock Mission is a homeless shelter for men that includes sleeping, dining and program areas. The three-storey building is designed around a courtyard and accommodates 32 shelter beds, 15 transitional housing suites, common areas, and a dining hall which will provide three meals a day all year.

This project involved the renovation of an existing hangar and substantial new construction that provided academic, administrative, flight simulation and technical spaces as well as a second hangar. The approach was to provide the new space adjacent to the runway giving Seneca a strong presence at the airport.
