'At the heart of MA+HG Architects is a desire to help Vancouverites live better. The firm has earned a reputation around town for bold, artful spaces that combine whimsy and function while housing multiple residents, couples, and families under one roof. This focus on beautiful, multibrood buildings earned the studio the Architectural Institute of British Columbia’s emerging-firm award in 2016, carving a place for affordability-centred architecture in Vancouver’s design scene.' by Lucy Lau, The Georgia Straight.

MA+HG practices unabashed architecture that is concise and practical, yet poetic and personal to the client.  Once described by a Client as having the ability to “...magically transform ordinary spaces and humble materials into places of poetic beauty”, we are driven to infuse meaning into the work as well as to delight and surprise.

It is the stretching of creative muscle that allows MA+HG to focus on design solutions that explore alternative ways of home ownership and dwelling. Our residential sector centers on multi-family residential buildings, micro co-housing, and custom multi-family homes. This practice is based on the principle that living smarter is better than living bigger. We believe that through creative thinking, we can craft solutions that speak to todays issues of affordability and social and environmental sustainability and our drive to a sharing economy. We believe in the usefulness of creativity.
