BridgmanCollaborative designs public washrooms. And we design the libraries, schools, day cares, museums, community centres, houses, apartments, train stations, theatres and churches around them.

Everyone deserves good design.
Everyone deserves dignity.

hello! a bit about us
BridgmanCollaborative – we are designers, architects, place-makers, puzzlers, advisors and advocates
Our practice is rooted in the beautiful city of Winnipeg on ancestral lands in Treaty One Territory (learn more). And our work takes many forms – from architectural design, heritage planning and community planning, to exhibits, poster campaigns, writing and films. We have received some 30 awards in accessible, inclusive design and heritage architecture.
Community activism infuses our work
We've built a reputation for making people's lives better and our communities stronger. We ask careful questions, we listen, we work for change. Our CO-LAB BLOG shares our passion for architecture, design and urban issues. Our opinion pieces have often featured on CBC News.
We honour the nexus of new and old design
While most of our architectural projects feature new design, we also specialize in the adaptive re-use of heritage buildings and innovative, energy-efficient retrofits. We honour the dynamic nexus of new and old design, including the firm’s own offices in Winnipeg’s historic Old Dominion Bank Building. Watch a small film about our heritage work here.
We celebrate collaboration and communication
Our inclusive design process encourages collaboration among our design team, consultants and clients. The results . . . inventive, resourceful, simple and elegant design solutions.
