Individual studio schedules may vary.
Ever wondered what an architect’s studio looks like?
This Doors Open weekend (May 28-29), architectural practices across Toronto are opening their doors and inviting you to come drop by!
Come meet the people behind our built environment and talk to the architects, landscape architects, planners and interior designers helping shape our city. Explore their workspaces, ranging from converted garages to heritage prosperities and community hubs, and see how buildings and landscapes go from ideas to built realities.
For 2022, we have a fantastic line up of studios working across a wide variety of projects and specialties, including sustainability, heritage, residential, development and landscape design. In addition to self-guided walks through the offices, many of the studios are offering talks throughout the weekend. Click on the map below to learn more about the participating studios, which days they will be open and what you can expect when you visit. You can also click on their logos below to visit their websites and see their work!
Covid-19 Safety: We are so excited to be back in-person and are implementing a few rules to keep everyone safe. Masks are required to enter all participating studios and capacity limits will be in effect.
