matter architectural studio believes that well-designed spaces can unite people and better humanity.
matter architectural studio inc. is a London, Ontario based group of Architects, Designers, and thinkers operating within the field of Architecture and Design. We provide impactful solutions to complex issues through expertise and collaborative partnerships; creating spaces that engage, inspire and benefit the communities we work in.
Everything in this world is interconnected. It’s all made up of matter—from our fingernails to our brains, from the floorboards beneath our feet to the steel beams above our heads. And matter is always on the move—never stale or fixed. It changes spaces and people every minute. It never stands still.
This shared, atomic experience is what makes matter architectural studio different. We believe the right space weaves together all the little pieces, uniting people and bettering humanity. Our team designs future-ready spaces knowing the world is always evolving for the better.
Since our incorporation as an Architectural Practice in 2015 we have seen positive growth in both office size and project complexity. The firm has benchmarked and upheld a high level of project professionalism which has attracted clients such as Western University, St. Clair College, YMCA of Southwestern Ontario, YORK Developments and Farhi Holdings Corporation.
Our multidisciplinary design process connects a network of talented professionals including Architects, Engineers and Specialty Planners during the early stages of each project. Additionally, we encourage our clients to collaborate with the design team to share ideas, passions and personal expertise to reach a creative, contextually responsive solution.
Based on our proven expertise in providing architectural solutions we have been named a Vendor of Record at London Health Sciences Centre, St. Thomas Elgin General Hospital, Western University and the City of Windsor.
In summation, matter aims to create remarkable projects that people want to visit, discuss and be associated with.
