What’s your favourite DIALOG project?
Calgary Central Library. It shines like a diamond in downtown Calgary. The freeform exterior wood soffit and its combination with crystalline geometry of white panels is an amazing illustration of how design, engineering and fabrication hand in hand can be so beautifully linked. This high-tech monument with its modern approach to design inspires me the most.
What’s your favourite way to give back to the community?
