Construction and architecture company Omicron Canada Inc. has acquired Vancouver’s Grant + Sinclair Architects Ltd. for an undisclosed amount, effective July 1.
Grant + Sinclair was founded over 30 years ago by Paul Grant and Douglas Sinclair. The architecture firm has worked on a number of projects with an emphasis on sustainable designs incorporating natural ventilation and day lighting.
“This is extremely exciting for all of us at Omicron as we continue to enhance our profile as an architectural leader in Western Canada, and we look forward to offering our growing capabilities to our clients throughout B.C. and Alberta,” said Omicron CEO Bill Tucker. “Paul [Grant] and Doug [Sinclair] bring with them an impressive body of work and a wealth of architectural expertise with special emphasis on education, institutional and custom residential commissions.
“Of equal importance to us, however, is that our values and standards of excellence are also strongly aligned.”
Grant said the transition will be seamless.
“We have considerable experience working on institutional projects – on schools in particular – and we see many opportunities for our clients who will benefit from working with us at Omicron,” he said. “The working model merges creative and technical expertise.”
