Our vision for what has become the Tides Renewal Centre, was to create office space in the downtown east side where a synergy of ideas and action towards social and environmental change is possible. P+A INTERIORS responded with determination to evolving programmatic requirements, multiple stakeholders and a funky heritage building. The end result being interiors that look and feel great! The environment enables capacity building not only for Tides Canada and Renewal, but also other enterprises and organizations.
P+A INTERIORS lead an extensive team of consultants, achieving a rigorous sustainability agenda, beyond the LEED Canada-Cl Gold certification. Their creativity in translating a complex program into a beautiful expression, and their attention and diligence to managing the project and budget was outstanding!
