gh3* is a peer-recognized and award-winning Canadian design practice. Our office works in the increasingly complex realm where architecture, urbanism and landscape overlap. We design with a modernist’s eye to order, beauty, and social possibility, an environmentalist’s awareness of sustainability and long-term thinking.

We have completed projects at every scale, from small park pavilions and private houses to large civic and transit infrastructure, most recently Canada's first natural swimming pool for the City of Edmonton.

Our energetic and interdisciplinary team is committed to the best in creative practice. We bring a tailored, client-centred approach to every stage of the design and construction process, with the aim of achieving pragmatic, poetic, environmentally-responsible, and aesthetically powerful design solutions. We believe that excellent design is an essential part of everyday life, and that spatially and visually engaging places can inspire joy and civic pride.

gh3*’s work has been published widely and has received numerous awards. Notable project awards include Governor General medals for the Borden Park Natural Swimming Pool, the Borden Park Pavilion, Real Time Control Building #3 and the Photographers Studio over a Boathouse. gh3* was named one of the World’s Twenty Most Innovative Companies in 2020 by Fast Company for their projects related to urban water.
