Happy International Women’s Day to our professional network, colleagues, and friends! Moriyama Teshima Architects values the work that our female team members contribute year-round – their diverse strengths, skills, and creativity are invaluable.

Wood Works! Canada recently organized a tour of our project, the Ontario Secondary Schools Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF/FEESO) Headquarters and Multi-Tenant Commercial Building, which is currently under construction in Toronto. Representatives from Govan Brown were in attendance, as well as MTA’s Cathy McMahon, Associate, and Deya Iskandarova, Architect, who both contributed to the architectural design of this innovative, highly sustainable, mass timber project.

“It is an outstanding feeling to be able to share information regarding this exciting project with other female leaders in the AEC industry. The group was impressed by the design of OSSTF throughout the tour of building – they were eager to learn about the challenges faced during the design process.”
