For over four decades, the team at DA Architects + Planners (formerly Downs/Archambault & Partners) has produced a diverse variety of structures, combining innovative form with function that is focused on community-building. We bring a strong appetite for the creative edge and a love of craft to each new opportunity for innovation.

Our reputation for delivering quality projects and meeting client needs is a result of the core values that guide DA’s work:

• Placemaking
• Collaborative professionalism
• Participatory design
• Community commitment
• Craftmanship

These results can be seen throughout Vancouver, on the waterfront in the Roundhouse Neighbourhood and around Concord Pacific Place, in the shared plaza spaces of Canada Place and the Pan Pacific Hotel, and in the parks and pedestrian-friendly spaces around Beatty Mews.
