Ware Malcomb first entered the Canadian market in 2007, through an acquisition, and has since grown and diversified its business in Canada, completing over 1,200 projects. The firm currently has active projects in six provinces across the country, and its newest Ontario office will support its growing Canadian client and project base.

“We already had a strong presence in Toronto and Vaughan,” said Christina Kolkas, Regional Director for Ware Malcomb. “This third office solidifies our Canadian presence and allows more accessibility to clients seeking our expertise. It’s an exciting time for our firm in this region.”

The firm’s most recent work in Ottawa includes completion of Building C, at National Capital Business Park, an industrial spec warehouse space developed by Avenue 31. Ware Malcomb provided the architectural, interior design and branding services for the 200,000 square foot industrial facility, which was built on one of the most prominent undeveloped industrial pieces of land in Ottawa. Strategically located at exit 109 on Highway 417 at Hunt Club Road in Ottawa, the structure sits on 99 acres of land zoned heavy industrial and leased on a long-term basis from the National Capital Commission.

Other recent Ware Malcomb projects in Ottawa include providing interior architecture and design services for a flagship store located at the Rideau Centre, interior design services for various tenants, site planning services on a 650 acre site and branding services for a 100-acre, six building industrial park.
