The new Student Health and Wellness Centre is a vital component of our evolving college curriculum. Our numerous health programs will be significantly enhanced by offering a first class learning opportunity to our students.

I would highly recommend aTRR for their excellent architectural services, for being extremely professional and for their ability to meet very tight deadlines.

We have found architects Tillmann Ruth Robinson to be a quality firm with design expertise and a depth of resources that were able to address our varying requirements. Our relationship with aTRR was very positive as was their working relationship with the general contractor and the sub-contractors throughout the project.

Throughout my association with aTRR I have always been impressed with the professional manner in which they perform their duties. All projects have been completed within budget and all have been designed with the future in mind.

aTRR delivered on every facet of the project, starting with a compelling proposal. This was followed by a widely consultative design process which yielded a brilliant concept for re-aligning the outmoded and bland interior, while preserving and enhancing the visually commanding exterior. There was ample on-site presence and consultation, as well as continuous and consistent communication.

The aTRR team was integral to helping us realize our vision for this space. Their honest and practical approach to the project enabled us to meet our budget and schedule goals while also completing a project to be proud of. The resultant space provided an improved patient journey and quality of work life for staff.

Tom and his team were very responsive to our own ideas about the design and functionality of the building, and many of our ideas found their way into the final plans. The end result is a revitalized building that has had a very positive impact on our Department and become a centerpiece of the University.

McMichael, who was the Architect for the office project, was very much in tune with what our vision was for a new office space. His unique vision to connect the two spaces in a fluid and open concept was very well executed. Using a 3D video model to give us a virtual walk through was extremely helpful for our faculty and staff to get a real sense of the new space. It was a brilliant approach. The feedback we received from internal and external guest even a year after are very positive and the space is trend setting for the rest of Humber College.

Over the past few days, including the Donor Recognition Night and the Grand Opening, there has been little time to thank those most involved in the success of the Maitland Recreation Centre. The project has been a success and the Donor Night and Grand Opening attendance was far beyond our expectations.

The modern industrial design combined with the post and beam architecture offers a local café, large event space, accessibility ramp and washrooms, private offices, permanent desks, flex desks, kitchen, meeting rooms, multiple lounges. But more importantly, the space has created an environment where individuals feel creative, connected and excited to be a part of something that truly breathes community. This translates into amplifying their own mission into thriving organizations. As one co-tenant suggests: This is the most vibrant place I’ve ever worked in. I look forward to walking through the doors every single day.
