AAmp is an interdisciplinary design studio positioned at the intersection of architecture & media. We focus on design at multiple scales to create unique experiences. These range from brand identity, to residential, commercial & cultural spaces. We pride ourselves on an innovative and accessible approach to design: from initial concept to realization, we work closely with our clients to develop cr

eative solutions tailored to their needs. In short, we believe design is a cultural experience that is beautiful, democratic and fun — so, let’s do it!

Construction is in full swing at our Maplden Residence in PEC! This project adds new life (and new wing!) to a historic farmhouse. Set within rolling fields, views were carefully curated to capture the changing seasons. We’re excited to see it taking shape!

Lately, we’ve been thinking about our Bessborough project in Toronto. This detail—layered arches, soft curves, and carefully framed views — is one we’re particularly fond of. It captures the quiet moments of the home, where form, light, and material come together in subtle ways.

We're excited to share a glimpse into our recently completed Jones Commons project that was featured in the latest (Link in Bio).

This mixed-use project reimagines a 1950s two-storey office building -- originally designed as doctors’ offices -- through adaptive reuse and the addition of a new two-storey extension, stair tower, and garage. Looking forward to sharing more soon!

We’re thrilled to see Jones Commons featured in the latest issue of Azure Magazine ! Link in bio.

An adaptive reuse project in Toronto, Jones Commons transforms a 1950s family medical clinic into a layered live-work building supporting shared creative offices and multi-residential units. It reflects AAmp’s ongoing interest in how buildings can evolve over time, hold memory, and support thoughtful densification in Toronto.

Thank you to Elizabeth Pagliacolo and Azure Magazine for the wonderful piece!

Happy International Women’s Day. Today we celebrate the brilliant women of AAmp. Our studio would not be the team it is today without their talent, thoughtfulness, and incredible contributions to the work we do every day.

The symposium is supported by SSHRC and a broad network of academic and professional partners.
