OUR KIND OF PROJECTS
From schools to distribution centres, health care facilities to residential towers, our team has applied years of expertise to nearly every building type. Our clients depend on us for our reliable insight, but also for our flexibility. We know that no two projects are alike and that each building, new or existing, faces it's own set of hurdles to overcome in order to save energy. Luckily, we also know the right questions to ask, and have a proven ability to work with clients and shape a clear path forward.

OUR IDEAS & MISSION
To provide the architecture, engineering, and construction industry with the tools and information needed to design, build, and maintain better, more sustainable buildings.
PEOPLE YOU (ACTUALLY) LIKE WORKING WITH
People rarely remember projects, but they always remember who they worked with (and what it was like to work with them). At Footprint, we're all about building relationships. Our approach is always catered to our clients, and it's this flexibility which has led to so much repeat work. That, and our team is just really fun...
