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.

The Municipality’s experience with architects Tillmann Ruth Robinson, specifically Scott Robsinson, has been a positive experience. Scott has always made himself available for meetings and phone discussions and has provided valued expertise in answering questions raised throughout this process…The facility being constructed reflects the vision of the community and extends its life expectancy for generations to come.

I have worked with Tom Tillmann and members of his firm on five residence projects at Western University in the last ten years…I have been very impressed with architects Tillmann Ruth Robinson’s ability to design residences that incorporates the important aspects of residence life. They are good listeners and have included my leadership team in the design process in a very meaningful and constructive manner.

aTRR delivered on every facet of the project, starting with a compelling proposal. This was followed by a widely consultative design process which yielded a brilliant concept for re-aligning the outmoded and bland interior, while preserving and enhancing the visually commanding exterior. There was ample on-site presence and consultation, as well as continuous and consistent communication.

Over the past few days, including the Donor Recognition Night and the Grand Opening, there has been little time to thank those most involved in the success of the Maitland Recreation Centre. The project has been a success and the Donor Night and Grand Opening attendance was far beyond our expectations.

[Tom and Scott]…have demonstrated a strong desire to have our new facility reflect the community’s interests and they understand the importance of designing a facility within the limits of a budget and having regard to long term maintenance and use considerations.

Throughout my association with aTRR I have always been impressed with the professional manner in which they perform their duties. All projects have been completed within budget and all have been designed with the future in mind.

I would highly recommend aTRR for their excellent architectural services, for being extremely professional and for their ability to meet very tight deadlines.

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

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.
