t a time when the trend is towards consolidation into large 'corporate'
architecture irms, it takes a careful balancing act to remain
independent, yet retain enough talent and wherewithal to be able to
compete for a wide range of projects.
Such is the case with Vancouver-based Wensley Architecture Ltd
(WA). WA is a mid-size irm that caters to a wide range of project types
beyond its long-standing specialty for retail and shopping centre design,
including an array of residential, ofice and senior health-care projects.
"Ever since Neil Banich and I took over in 2001, one of our main goals has been to
become a signiicant player in a number of other sectors," says principal Barry Weih.
The recently completed City
Centre 1 is a 12-storey strata
medical-office tower that will
serve the growing Surrey
Memorial Hospital Precinct. The
building is designed to target
LEED Gold certification..
