Architect Alfred Waugh, owner and founder of Formline Architecture, looks forward to designing a public space that will reflect and celebrate the land on which it will be built. Formline’s designs, which include the Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre at the University of British Columbia, and the Indigenous House at the University of Toronto, Scarborough, connect to and gain inspiration from the landscape and social context that surround them. Through its architectural design, Saskatoon’s new Central Library will blend Indigenous ways of knowing with Western knowledge. This library will be a space where oral tradition and the written word are combined, creating an inclusive and safe environment for sharing knowledge and ideas for all people. &nbsp; October 23rd, 2020 Listen to Alfred Waugh story on CBC Tapestry:<img width="720" height="874" width_o="720" height_o="874" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6a11ea419df28ff1cf1f745d8cad794f04ef6ad224942e2122bd721294b86c68/Tapestry-article.JPG" data-mid="87425134" border="0" data-scale="63" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/720/i/6a11ea419df28ff1cf1f745d8cad794f04ef6ad224942e2122bd721294b86c68/Tapestry-article.JPG" /> September 28th, 2020 The Globe and Mail article on the U of T Indigenous House we are currently working on in association with LGA Architectural Partners: &nbsp; <img width="1103" height="826" width_o="1103" height_o="826" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/23a3360f09610386c07c902f81e0a6aac7ee07e372d0acc6ea280bf1e34325f6/news-globe-and-mail.JPG" data-mid="83996559" border="0" data-scale="73" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/23a3360f09610386c07c902f81e0a6aac7ee07e372d0acc6ea280bf1e34325f6/news-globe-and-mail.JPG" />May 13th, 2019 The Copper Development Association recently announced its 2019 North American Copper in Architecture award winners!
