Cascadia Architects was formed by Principal Architects Gregory Damant and Peter Johannknecht. The firm’s identity and character is rooted in their combined 40 years of practice with respected and award-winning firms in Victoria, Vancouver and Germany. Cascadia’s areas of practice are broad, and include commercial, institutional, mixed-use residential, and custom residential. Our focus is on urban and in-fill projects.
Attention to good urban design principles and sustainable construction systems such as LEED and PassiveHouse inform our methodology.
The spirit of the firm grows from three simple ideas: creative collaboration is fun; beautiful surroundings enhance our daily lives; and it is the role of the architect to weave together the needs and resources of the client, the community, and the natural environment to create spaces that are elegantly functional and uplifting.
