ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN

Combining the pragmatic with the creative, our design group makes forming a meaningful connection with our clients their top priority. 

As Atlantic Canada’s first construction agency, Vigilant brings our unique blend of construction expertise to our architectural practice. We believe the best buildings are built when architects, engineers, contractors, and owners collaborate openly and honestly to create something more than the sum of their parts. Combining the pragmatic with the creative, our design group makes forming a meaningful connection with our clients their top priority. 

Our architectural team has a holistic approach to design, prioritizing bringing your vision to life within the broader surroundings of your area. Our roots in Atlantic Canada run deep and we leverage our understanding of this place to create the right building for your needs.

WHY IS ARCHITECTURE IMPORTANT?

Architecture is a reflection of society at a given point in time and place. Like all art, it is an expression of who we are. It is a reflection of our culture and our values.

Architectural works can be seen as cultural and political, and as elegant works of art.
Yet, why do we need architecture? Why is it important to our society and our culture?
There are three core aspects of architecture: function, technical, and aesthetic. Architects design buildings and spaces that are curated to the needs and tasks of those that use them. Design involves the building itself, the spaces within, and the environment surrounding it. Architectural design shapes the physical environment, and has a profound impact on how we live, work, and interact, not only with the spaces it has created, but also with each other.
