Architecture49 is proud to share that, together with PCL Construction, we have received the Building Better, Together Award for the West Bedford Schools project. This award recognizes project teams that work across disciplines, organizations, and sectors with trust, shared responsibility, and a commitment to achieving meaningful community impact.
Architecture49 joined community members at Discovery Centre’s annual Build A Thon this past weekend, bringing a design forward activity that invited kids to think about the communities they live in — and imagine the ones they might create.
Be it fate, manifestation or luck, there are some full circle moments in life that confirm the paths we have chosen. For Craig Mosher celebrating 35 years with Architecture49 and long known as an aviation enthusiast, one such moment may have been when he was tasked with designing an air traffic control tower at the Halifax Airport for one of his school projects; only to then design the real thing as a licensed and practicing architect years later.
Located within the Halifax Regional Municipality, the BLT (Beechville, Lakeside, Timberlea) region is a growing community where new public spaces are helping to shape local life. Architecture49 is proud to be contributing to that growth with thoughtful designs that create places that bring people together and strengthen community ties.
As we look forward to 2026, we want to take a few moments to reflect and honour the generosity that surrounds the holiday season. Several offices participated in fundraisers, provided donations and came together to help support our communities during what can be, a stressful time of year for many Canadians.
Architecture49 is proud to share three recent education projects that demonstrate how thoughtful design strengthens communities and supports student success: Breton Education Centre, Red Sucker Lake School and the University of Quebec in Abitibi-Témiscamingue Pavillion.
Construction is officially underway on the Eastern Shore Lifestyle Centre, a new community hub in Sheet Harbour that will bring cultural, recreational, and emergency services into a unified, purpose-built facility. Architecture49 is proud to lead the design of this innovative project in collaboration with the Halifax Regional Municipality and project partners.
A49 is proud to announce Kevin Humeniuk as Sustainable Labs Canada’s (SLCan) new President. As A49’s National Sector Leader for Science & Technology, Kevin brings over a decade of dedication to the SL Can organization and has a strong history of leading complex laboratory projects at Architecture49.
As we look toward 2025, we want to take a few moments to reflect and honour the generosity that surrounds the holiday season. Many of our offices across the country were part of various fundraisers and donations, and A49 employees came together to help support our communities during a particularly stressful time of year.
In a celebration that marks a significant leap towards fostering community bonds, the groundbreaking ceremony for the Beechville Lakeside Timberlea Recreation Centre (BLT) took place last December.
Next week, Halifax will host the annual Sustainable Labs Canada (SLCan) Conference, bringing together laboratory design specialists from across Canada.
