We are pleased to recommend aTRR for any health care work and appreciate the commitment and service they have provided and continue to provide to us on an ongoing basis.

The Peterborough YMCA has become a vibrant centre for recreational and leisure activity and has been fondly embraced by both our membership and the community at large

We believe that aTRR took a very collaborative approach throughout the design process, and was patient during the various iterations required to fit all that we wished to accomplish into one building envelope. We felt that aTRR appreciated the history of Boler in the community, and understood the core values and vision which the Board expressed. There was an ability on the part of aTRR to listen to our staff and to Board members, and to understand Boler’s operations and programs to ensure that the final design was functional and efficient.

While all of the buildings that were designed by aTRR are both functional and architecturally beautiful, the [Athletics and Fitness Complex & NOVA Chemicals Health & Research Centre] will forever change the landscape of Lambton College. They are two of the most attractive, open and inviting buildings in the Ontario College System…We could not be happier with McMichael Ruth and aTRR and would recommend them for any commercial designs, large scale or small.

We have found architects Tillmann Ruth Robinson to be a quality firm with design expertise and a depth of resources that were able to address our varying requirements. Our relationship with aTRR was very positive as was their working relationship with the general contractor and the sub-contractors throughout the project.

McMichael, who was the Architect for the office project, was very much in tune with what our vision was for a new office space. His unique vision to connect the two spaces in a fluid and open concept was very well executed. Using a 3D video model to give us a virtual walk through was extremely helpful for our faculty and staff to get a real sense of the new space. It was a brilliant approach. The feedback we received from internal and external guest even a year after are very positive and the space is trend setting for the rest of Humber College.

Scott provided remarkable insights into his design that connected the structure with the best features our Northern Ontario landscape has to offer…Through his creative direction, Mr. Robinson produced a final product that is not only unique, but that has greatly enhanced the student and faculty experience, as well as improved the visibility, profile and image of the College…Because of Scott’s dedication, creativity, courage and excellence in creating this state-of-the-art learning facility, we can say with confidence that the impressive three-story glass and steel academic wing will serve as a campus dream for years to come.

Throughout the project, we have come to rely on aTRR for their professionalism, their prompt response time, their ability to navigate the array of stakeholder feedback, their eye for design and efficient use of space, their solution focused resolve, and their enthusiasm. Their commitment to the success of this project has not waivered since the moment they were hired.

From the outset, Scott understood the process of working with our clans, nations and our People. Through conversations, walking through the valley and carefully listening to our ideas and stories, we embarked on a journey together that was both enjoyable and fruitful. His leadership and patience in the many visioning sessions allowed for deep and meaningful engagement that was very much appreciated. He allowed the process to reveal a design that we determined together and that specifically speaks to our culture, values and jurisdiction.

The modern industrial design combined with the post and beam architecture offers a local café, large event space, accessibility ramp and washrooms, private offices, permanent desks, flex desks, kitchen, meeting rooms, multiple lounges. But more importantly, the space has created an environment where individuals feel creative, connected and excited to be a part of something that truly breathes community. This translates into amplifying their own mission into thriving organizations. As one co-tenant suggests: This is the most vibrant place I’ve ever worked in. I look forward to walking through the doors every single day.
