Stuart Howard Architects is a midsized design-oriented firm located in Vancouver’s Southeast False Creek neighbourhood.

At Stuart Howard Architects we are passionate about the complete practice of Architecture, from the earliest poetic, schematic moves to fully detailing all aspects of construction documents, through contract administration and working with builders onsite. The firm is organized in a horizontal arrangement with a team-based approach to design and project delivery.

We are located in a building of our own design, with a space optimized for our approach to practice. In design we stress user participation, neighbourhood involvement and excellence of design. We are committed to developing authentic, high quality, innovative design solutions for our clients while simultaneously being cognizant of constructability and onsite execution.

We currently have several projects that are moving into contract documents phase as well as some new projects in schematic design. We have an opening for an Intermediate or Senior Architect, Intern Architect or Technologist with strong contract documents production skills. Required qualifications include:

Strong design and presentation skills

Signing bonus for the right candidate.

In our 45 years of practice we have developed a positive, engaging and inclusive office culture which makes coming to the studio everyday a pleasure. We believe that allowing all members of our team to take ownership of their projects from start to finish and that collaborating both internally and externally is the path to the best project outcomes.

We believe that our approach to practice combined with the scale of our firm results in unparalleled experience. We are large enough to accept large-scale projects, but small enough to ensure meaningful engagement from team members in all aspects of practice. For more experienced staff, we offer opportunity to lead teams and work directly with clients; while for more junior staff we offer opportunities to assume roles and responsibilities not typically extended in more traditional, top-down firm organization.

We care deeply about providing our team members with professional satisfaction and career progression while ensuring that our intern architects not only gain experience in each of the categories, but also quality experience that ultimately results in capable and knowledgeable architects.
