About Architecture
Architecture in Alberta
From striking office towers that define the character of our cities to welcoming interiors that make you feel instantly at home, Alberta architects shape your experience. Throughout Alberta’s residential neighbourhoods, commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings, you will see evidence of the value of fine architecture.
Alberta’s architects are professionals with extensive education, training, and experience in every aspect of design and construction. They can help you convert your ideas into successfully completed projects, by transforming objectives into three-dimensional solutions. Their work includes:
- presenting design proposals to stakeholders
- securing regulatory approvals
- protecting client investment
A key strength of architects is their dedicated ability to see entire solutions, by considering all product lines, building materials, and construction methods. The result is the creation of living and working environments that respond to client needs. This includes developing creative concepts and continuing through design development to contract document preparation. Architects encompass managerial skills to successfully direct projects to completion, on time and within budget.
