Today, we raise a glass to Bob, who twenty-eight years ago, founded what is now S2 Architecture. Today, Bob retires from this firm that he grew and evolved, to enter a new phase of his life that will undoubtedly involve art, music, nature, philosophical musings, spending time with his grandson, and inevitably, fine red wine.

The Calgary Catholic School District engaged S2 to execute the design and construction of a new high school in Calgary's SE community of Legacy, as part of a major educational infrastructure initiative.

We believe our design process should result in clarity; accurately and consistently translating our client’s words about their aspirations into reality. The process involves concept massing, then concept sketches, computer renderings, and then reality.

This care campus will integrate living and learning to enhance quality of life for seniors through a flexible design that enables resident choice and continuity of care for a true aging-in-place facility.

Like most organizations today, S2 is actively working on design solutions for the post-COVID office environment. This past year we experienced our own design opportunity in the midst of this crisis and learned many valuable lessons.

S2 has been around for over 26 years. We've seen and experienced a lot. Despite our current challenging times, we know that our industry will respond with resilience, creativity and hard work.

The City of Calgary announced the 2019 Mayor’s Urban Design Award (MUDA) winners at a gala celebration held at the Calgary Central Library Oct. 24, 2019. Every two years, The City of Calgary acknowledges the important contributions of designers, architects and artists that help improve the quality of life in Calgary through art and design.

Founded in 1993, Canadian architectural, interior design, and master planning firm S2 Architecture serves a diverse range of markets. The employees at S2 work together fluently within and between studios located in Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver. All three of these studios have recently undergone significant changes, and the development is, in part, to advance the firm's collaborative teamwork approach.

If the busyness of architectural firms is a barometer of improving business conditions in this city, the work of S2 Architecture is an indicator of renewed confidence.

Developers, architects, construction companies and trades have been so supportive of local groups devoted to caring for people in need of a home, food or medical attention. And they still are, despite current economic uncertainties.

After 15 years working out of TransAlta Place, full-service architectural, interior design and master-planning firm S2 Architecture is relocating its Calgary studio.

Construction on a long awaited continuing care centre was finally completed earlier this year.
