Still Point Architecture

Still Point Architecture is an architectural design firm based in British Columbia, Canada, specializing in waterfront and coastal residences. The firm was established in 1997 by Drew Rose, Architect AIBC, who after working for eleven years in a large firm, decided to set up his own practice, focusing on the design of waterfront and coastal homes. Over the years, we have been involved in a wide range of projects, from residential and vacation homes to multi-family, commercial, office, resort, and educational facilities. We also work on various renovation projects, from large to small scale, including adding space, re-purposing space, and creating the right space for your needs.

Our Firm: Building Relationships

At Still Point Architecture, we believe that a good architectural design firm builds relationships. We have developed and maintained close ties with many experienced builders and consultants who specialize in remote and coastal construction. We understand the logistical challenges associated with construction on exceptional sites that are not serviced with utilities and only accessible by water. Our construction project services include construction contracts administration, issuing certificates during construction, and coordinating payment schedules between owners and contractors. These services have proved invaluable to clients with busy schedules who often live far away from their project site - and who want and need the job done.

Our Principal: Drew Rose, Architect AIBC

Drew Rose, Architect AIBC, is the principal of Still Point Architecture. Drew has a wealth of experience in the design and construction of waterfront homes, having spent his childhood summers at the family cottage on beautiful Savary Island. He has a keen awareness of the challenges of remote construction and of the special needs that arise with living 'off the grid'. With Still Point Architecture, Drew has drawn from his coastal roots to design numerous homes, vacation retreats, commercial buildings, and larger projects throughout the region. Sustainability and sensitivity to the environment of the sites are always forefront in the design process.
