Engage Architecture

At Engage Architecture, we are open and engaged in the practice of design. We bring our experience, knowledge and skills to the opportunity and unique potential of every project. We believe that buildings can and should be beautiful, functional, sustainable and durable. Every project is its own education; we learn from our clients and from the solutions that arise in the process of making buildings. We strive through every project to build relationships, community and a better place to live and work. We design architecture for everyday life. Engage Architecture is a full service architecture firm based in Vancouver, British Columbia. We offer expertise in woodframe residential design, including both market and non-market multi-family housing and single-family houses, and in commercial and mixed-use project types. We can also help with assessing the potential of a site, masterplanning or feasibility studies. Engage Architecture offers the direct involvement of Principal Karen Smith through all stages of every project. Karen brings to each project a depth of experience and knowledge as well as a deep commitment to finding the best potential in every project. We solve problems, propose design solutions and apply the best of what we know to our work. We are committed to designing buildings that meet the needs of the client, the users and the community.
