Founded in 1984 by Jonathan Kearns and Tony Mancini, the Toronto-based firm was built on the mission of enhancing lives through holistic and ecological design principles. Since their inception, Kearns Mancini has always placed the well-being of the community at the heart of their practice, delivering projects that blend form, function, and environmental stewardship. “It’s never been just about form and function for us,” says Frank Park, one of the firm’s principals. “It’s always been about promoting the well-being of communities and building users.” This guiding philosophy has been the cornerstone of Kearns Mancini’s work, influencing the way the firm engages with clients and collaborates on projects. Now, as they mark their 40th anniversary, the firm continues to uphold this legacy, adapting to the evolving landscape of architecture while remaining committed to their foundational principles. Headquartered in Toronto, Kearns Mancini is proud of their geographical reach, with projects that span the Greater Toronto Area and beyond. Their work is found not only in Toronto’s downtown core but also in regions like Prince Edward County, Windsor, Hamilton, Aurora, and Newmarket. Currently, the firm is actively expanding their influence through a strategic alliance with a local firm in Ottawa, ensuring that their innovative approach to design reaches even further across Canada.
