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.

aTRR clearly understands their role in the design/build process and brings a positive energy to each commission. The result of their design abilities has been recognized with two recent architectural design awards for University College and the FIMS/ Nursing Building which are both excellent examples of Western’s campus architecture. Their personal commitment to getting the job done right, on time and very importantly on budget has led to the reason why Western University has had them working continuously on the campus for the past two decades.

The Tillmann team did a superb job of carefully listening to the needs of the researchers and staff, presenting design options that would meet the needs of the academics and fall within the project constraints, and working with the academic team to ensure the final design was appropriate and satisfactory to all. Because of budget and space constraints, many tough decisions had to be made during the design process. Each decision was given the appropriate consideration and explored fully before moving forward. The architectural team would not move forward until all concerns were addressed. The academic team was treated with great respect and never felt pressured to make a decision.

The team at architects Tillmann Ruth Robinson led by Scott Robinson engaged staff from MLEMS and worked collaboratively to understand our vision, the needs of our operation, and to design a functional space that houses a two bay ambulance station, logistics garage, decontamination bay, training, and administrative staff. The building has been designed to meet our service and communite needs for many years, with growth opportunity built into the design.

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.

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.

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.

There were incredibly tight timelines – 2 years – associated with this project, and given the fact that it was a complicated structure housing a variety of interests ie. Science labs, clinics, classrooms, student spaces and offices, meaning there were a lot of diverse needs and personalities at the table, aTRR easily rose to the challenge…The College is very proud to have this building out front and centre as it is truly awe-inspiring both inside and out. People have nothing but positive comments about the building and I expect this will be true for many years to come.

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 new Student Health and Wellness Centre is a vital component of our evolving college curriculum. Our numerous health programs will be significantly enhanced by offering a first class learning opportunity to our students.
