“HIGH END” JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2022: REPUBLIC ARCHITECTURE
“Despite being battered by recurring lockdowns, most of Canada’s retail landscape remained resilient during the pandemic, and now that things appear to be picking up — particularly by forecasting reports anticipating a robust economic rebound in 2022 due to a successful vaccine rollout and a steady return to work — consumer confidence has rallied, showing once again how deep retail therapy can run.”

WINNER OF A 2021 CANADIAN ARCHITECT PHOTO AWARD OF MERIT
“This is a courageous shot because it includes all the street furniture in its full glory. Nothing has been photoshopped or cleaned up—there’s the garbage truck, the fire hydrant, the pylons, the man in a brown coat, some graffiti in the back; rather than detracting, these elements work together in a cohesive colour palette, contributing to the richness of the image.”
