BEAToronto is thrilled to invite members to Taking Stock; a project we are proud to support as a partner. 

“Taking Stock: Voices of Women in Architecture Across Canada” is a 2-day symposium at Toronto Metropolitan University, Department of Architectural Science, 6 & 7 March, that brings together students, architects, academics, advocates, historians, journalists, policymakers, statisticians, and others to share knowledge and experiences, advance essential conversations, and spark systemic, embedded change in pedagogy, practice, and policy for women in architecture.

Join us for an exclusive tour of Limberlost Place, led by four women whose contributions were key to the design and construction of this landmark project.

Located on George Brown Polytechnic’s Waterfront Campus, the 10-storey Limberlost Place is Canada’s only—and possibly the world’s first—academic mass timber tower. To accomplish this feat, the team led by Moriyama Teshima Architects and Acton Ostry Architects needed to achieve the longer spans required for classrooms with mass timber, as well as to overcome regulatory hurdles related to the occupant load of an assembly-type building.

Navigating the early years of your architecture career can be challenging. How do you make yourself heard in meetings, on calls, or on-site? In Finding Your Voice, four accomplished principals share their personal journeys, the obstacles they've faced, and the strategies they've used to establish their presence in the profession. This candid and inspiring conversation will explore how different personalities, strengths, and experiences shape the way architects communicate and lead. If you're looking to refine your professional voice and learn from those who’ve walked the same path, this discussion should not be missed.
