We are excited to celebrate the 20th year that Waterloo’s School of Architecture has been a part of the Cambridge Community. As a University of Waterloo Alumni, our Principal Architect, Elisia is featured in an article covering the celebration.

“There’s a renewed post-pandemic energy among students to connect with the community and work on projects that enliven public spaces, In the last few years, the area around my company has become very active with events spaces, shops, cafe courtyards –– all done with an eye for design. Local businesses like mine are excited to see this development and be a part of it –– we want more of the school’s creativity and energy to spill out into Cambridge, both the city and the students have so much to gain from each other.” – Elisia Neves, Principal Architect at Fabrik Architects
