Welcome to our Vancouver studio
Here, a culture of collaboration fosters our creativity: we are one team with a common set of goals and values. The ideals of beauty, simplicity, functionality, and sustainability—symbolized by the canoe that hangs in our atrium—are central to our work. With these as our foundation, combined with a desire to always do better, we forge new frontiers through research and innovation. Together, we create change.
“Giving people the tools and space to do great work has always been fundamental to building the ethos of collaboration and excellence in our studio.”
—Susan Gushe, Managing Director
“What I really like about working here is the culture. It’s amazing to see such camaraderie. Everybody comes together on a regular basis—to work together and play together.”
– Mona Lemoine, Senior Sustainable Design Specialist

“Mass timber construction allows you to expose wood,” says Peter Busby, @perkinswill_VAN principal. “People enjoy that versus a concrete shoebox because it offers warmth and humanity.”
