JA Architecture Studio

JA Architecture Studio is a Canadian practice based in Toronto, led by an Iranian Canadian duo, an architect and a landscape designer, that combines the rootedness of a local architecture firm with the broad interests of an international design studio. The practice works simultaneously at opposing ends of the professional spectrum, from small to medium sized buildings that confront detail-level building constraints to ambitious international competitions that draw upon the collective repertoire of the discipline.

Taken as a whole, the studio's work invests in larger questions of the discipline, namely how iconographic, geometric, formal, and tectonic pursuits relate to broader contexts such as contemporary art, politics, construction, landscape, and urbanism.
