S.J.Lawrence Architect Incorporated is an awardwinning architectural practice based in Ottawa, Ontario. Since their founding in 1993, they have been involved in the design, production and construction of over 1,000 projects, ranging from custom homes to multi-storey buildings. Over their 30-year-history, they have grown steadily in terms of both capacity and renown – they now offer clients a full range of architectural services for a diverse array of building typologies, and they are well known for their exceptional customer service. “We believe that effective design starts with strong relationships — with our clients, with our network of collaborating professionals and with each other,” says Brandon Lawrence, Lead Architect. “Our commitment to peoplefocused design is reinforced by the synergism, intuition and mutual respect that comes from our long history of working together.” “Our diverse portfolio reflects our flexible, client-centred philosophy,” says Shawn Lawrence. “We approach each project individually and with fresh eyes, without a specific architectural template or typology to get in the way of a truly collaborative, responsive design process. This means we really listen to our clients to get a deep understanding of their needs, vision, and context as we strive to create engaging spaces that are a perfect balance of thoughtful and functioning.” Shawn is a practicing architect in Ontario and Nova Scotia, with degrees from Ryerson University and the Technical University of Nova Scotia, and he has over 35 years of architectural experience in JULY 2023
