Established in 1996, Simmonds Architecture (formerly Christopher Simmonds Architect Inc.) is recognized as one of Ottawa’s leading practitioners of contemporary architecture. Led by Principal, Chris Simmonds, we have a talented and experienced team of architects, designers and technologists. Our diverse portfolio of award-winning projects – from custom homes to larger scale commercial and public buildings – demonstrates our commitment to design excellence at every level. We work locally and across Canada with individual clients, residential and commercial developers, as well as non-profit groups – always with the objective to exceed expectations. Our commitment to environmental sustainability is shared across our team which includes several LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professionals and a Certified “Passive House” Designer. Our collaborative approach to a project enables us to work with each of our clients in a unique and creative way – and has allowed us the reputation of being a leading architecture firm in modern design.
