High-performance bent and flat glass helped Hariri Pontarini Architects create an undulating modern glass tower in Toronto, while still meeting the building team’s performance requirements.

The $37-million Trafalgar Park Community Centre project is one of the first in Canada to use the integrated project delivery (IPD) model. Under this arrangement, client, architect, and contractor operate as a team to apply lean construction principles to design, fabrication, and construction.

Schluter-Systems’ DESIGNBASE-SL is a top set wall baseboard providing a modern and stylish alternative to traditional baseboards in commercial buildings and condominiums.

The challenge asks Ontario architects to show how architectural thinking can promote social equity, reduce isolation, or embody social justice.

There is one thing you can count on with basements: given enough time, cracks will appear. The go-to repair is crack injection, but there is a high failure rate since the repair itself does not keep the wall from moving, which is often what causes these cracks. The only way to avoid this is by applying a permanent structural solution such as carbon fibre on top of the injection.
