J. Warren Borg

Principal Architect @Borg Architect Inc

Ottawa, ON, CA

Borg Architect was established in 2021, serving Nunavut, Northwest Territories, and Ontario. Our firm focuses on building relationships and being flexible. We have decided on a green, sustainable environmental practice by reducing our carbon footprint and promoting a better work/life balance. With today\'s technological tools and transparent communication between all team members, remote working is our strength. We take a \"hands-on\" approach to all projects throughout their various stages, from design to post-occupancy. Our design approach stems from the idea of \"sustainability through pride-of-place.\" Imposing a design style or solution onto a client is not our intent. The firm\'s team draws on a rich experience of institutional and residential design work. Client consultation, sustainability and public process are central to the success of our projects.By developing relationships with contractors, consultants, and other experts, we can coordinate these connections to deliver projects with unique systems integration. We believe that the most successful projects embody unique characteristics of client, location, community, and culture. As projects have and will involve various cultural groups, such as the indigenous, we have made it our mandate to approach all aspects of the design and construction with respect and sensitivity. Community consultation in all project phases is key to successful architecture, cultivating a bottom-up design approach.
