Patkau Architects

Patkau Architects - Chronicle Summer 2019

Patkau Architects

Material considerations.

The Patkaus are giants in the Canadian architectural world—their work is studied in universities around the globe—but they do not use their heft to produce 80-storey towers punctuating urban centres. Instead, quietly, the Patkaus focus on ideas: the pure, unembarrassed inquiry that precedes and infuses all truly great designs.

Yasodhara Ashram, British Columbia

Finding the light.

Settled along Kootenay Bay, the Yasodhara Ashram offers self-reflection in an innovative temple by Patkau Architects, shaped like undulating waves.

Polygon Gallery, Daily Edit

Polygon Gallery, North Vancouver

Western Canada’s largest photography-focused gallery.

When the Polygon Gallery opens this November in North Vancouver’s lower Lonsdale neighbourhood, it will mark the completion of a project roughly four decades in the making.

NUVO Autumn 2015: The Tula House, Designs for Living

The Tula House

A Patkau Architects project on Quadra Island, B.C.

The Tula House, realized as a thoughtful composition of wood, steel, concrete, and plate glass, is a place of mutual respect between nature and habitation.
