FIRM PROFILE

Urban Arts Architecture is an architectural firm specializing in community based projects. We aim to create meaningful community experiences through the art of architecture.

UAA is committed to integrating sustainable life cycle strategies into each project. We work collaboratively with our clients and consultants in an integrated design process to achieve the maximum experiential and economic value for our projects. The firm has chosen to focus our practice on community buildings because we love to work intimately with community groups to positively effect growth and interaction. To do this successfully, it is essential to have an in-depth understanding and empathy for the users of our buildings. Working in consultation with the community, we explore each project's potential to the fullest, incorporating our dedication to the environment, contextual responsiveness, and the art of architecture.

Embedded in its region, our work is inspired by the natural environment, resources, and people of the diverse regions of the Province of BC.
