STA Office is an architectural practice based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, established in 2016. The Office applies its knowledge, work, and sensibilities to design projects across a range of scales and building typologies, seeking clear and transformative outcomes.
Our practice centers around a belief in the transformative powers of design—and that projects, small or large, can become vessels for change and growth or simply be a joy to occupy.
Our design approach privileges simplicity, working to find clarity, the essentials, and quiet beauty in an increasingly complex world. We pursue the future, drawing from the past, from the richness of cultural and natural life, and by building knowledge of the places in which we work.
Central to our office culture is a commitment to developing built forms that embrace a diversity of architectural concerns (form, construction, materials, history, preservation, ecology, art, energy, economy, and so forth). And through encompassing work, we seek to further notions of space, beauty, and value.
Our collective interests and project experiences are varied, ranging in scales and typologies, from objects to landscapes and interiors to buildings, with commissions from public, private, and non-profit clients. While our perspective is wide, we focus on each project, working with our clients to deliver specific, thoughtful, and well-crafted buildings.
