Registered Architect · AIBC (Architectural Institute of British Columbia)

I believe a space — whether a home, a workplace, or a building shaped for the public — should work quietly in your favour, supporting the rhythm of your days rather than asking you to bend around it.

I'm a registered architect with a deep love for the slower, more considered side of architecture, practising as Hart Veritas Architecture Inc. I hold a Master of Architecture from the Azrieli School of Architecture at Carleton University, and bring more than a decade of experience across residential and commercial architecture — including years as a commercial designer for developers, shaping multi-family, mixed-use and tenant-improvement projects from concept through delivery.

My passion lies in shaping spaces that blend beauty and function in meaningful ways. Places that feel inevitable once you're inside them, even though every decision behind them was carefully weighed. Whether designing a private home or a commercial environment, my focus is on efficient yet elegant design and pragmatic, thoughtful solutions that recognise and maximise the experience of entering and moving through a space, the scale and proportion of its rooms, and the relationship between those rooms, their surroundings, and natural light.

Much of my work today is with condo and townhouse owners, strata councils, property managers and small business owners: renovating a unit, reworking a commercial space, or preparing accurate floor plans for what comes next. These projects are often too small for larger firms, but they matter just as much to the people living and working in them, and they deserve an architect's full attention, from the first site visit to the issued permit.

As the founder of Hart Veritas Architecture Inc., I work closely with a small number of residential and commercial clients each year so that every project receives the attention it deserves. In collaboration with trusted builders, developers, makers, and consultants, I bring together a love of natural materials, considered proportion, and a quiet contemporary sensibility, designing places that are honest, restrained, and built for the long term.

Principle

Site & Space First

Every project begins with what's already there: the land, the building, the light, and how the space is used today.

Principle

Material Honesty

Stone, timber, plaster, and steel, used as themselves, allowed to age.

Principle

Clear From Start to Permit

Straightforward fees, complete drawings and steady communication, so approvals move without surprises.

"We don't design buildings. We design the way a place will feel for the next hundred years."
