Thunderbolt Ice Arena
Located in Regina, this 18,500-seat arena became home to some seriously passionate hockey fans. The acoustic design was tricky - we needed it loud enough to intimidate visiting teams but clear enough for concerts during off-season. Ended up using custom-engineered sound panels that flex between configurations.
Key Features: Retractable glass panels, LED ribbon boards, geothermal heating system, 4K video cube
Coastal United Stadium
Vancouver's waterfront got this beauty in 2022. The clients wanted something that'd work for both professional soccer and concerts, which meant we had to get creative with the pitch protection system. Those retractable seating sections? Took us three redesigns to nail down, but now they transition in under 6 hours.
Key Features: Natural grass hybrid system, rainwater harvesting, solar panel canopy, modular seating
Memorial Gardens Resurrection
This 1957 gem in Kingston was showing its age - and not in a charming way. The community didn't want to lose the history, so we kept the original facade and basically rebuilt everything else. Found the original blueprints in a basement filing cabinet, which helped us preserve some cool architectural details everyone thought were lost.
Improvements: Complete HVAC overhaul, accessibility upgrades, new luxury suites, modern concession areas, preserved art deco elements
Lakefront Amphitheater
Toronto's waterfront needed a summer concert venue that wouldn't tick off the condo residents half a mile away. The acoustic engineering on this one was intense - we built natural sound barriers using the landscape itself, then added some high-tech directional speakers that keep the music where it belongs.
Key Features: Weather-protected stage, natural acoustics, waterfront views, sustainable landscaping, zero noise bleed
Prairie Hoops Center
Winnipeg's basketball scene exploded, and they needed a proper home court. We designed this arena to be intimate - every seat feels close to the action. The bowl design isn't symmetrical, which actually improved sightlines from the upper deck. Sometimes breaking the rules makes sense.
Key Features: Asymmetric bowl design, practice courts underneath, local art installations, district heating connection
Northern Gridiron Stadium
Edmonton winters aren't messing around, so we built this stadium with a partial roof that covers 70% of the seats while keeping that outdoor football vibe. The heated concourses mean fans can actually enjoy walking around at halftime instead of freezing their butts off.
Key Features: Partial weather protection, heated concourses, wind mitigation design, expandable press box, field-level suites
Riverside Performance Hall Revival
This 1930s venue in Ottawa had incredible bones but terrible everything else. We stripped it down to the studs, reinforced the structure, and rebuilt it as a world-class performance space. The original chandelier stayed - we had it restored by the same Italian company that made it 90 years ago.
Improvements: Orchestra pit restoration, backstage expansion, modern lighting grid, climate control, historical facade preservation
