Architectural designer, Ottawa, Ontario
Profile
I am an architectural designer with Canadian practice across commercial, industrial and low-rise residential work, and a decade across architecture, landscape, interiors and visualization.
Most of that practice is production documentation: permit and construction sets drawn to the Ontario Building Code, from wall assemblies and limiting-distance calculations to issued-for-construction envelope details. Alongside it I run Vizar Design Studio, delivering commercial fit-outs, secondary dwelling units and visualization accurate enough to match the finished building.
