Please join us for the Ottawa Regional Society of Architects Annual General Meeting 2025. We’re excited to welcome Alain Miguelez, Vice-President of Capital Planning and Chief Planner of the National Capital Commission, as our special guest speaker. Alain will share a talk titled:
“Architecture and Style: How Context and Choice Should Frame Best Practices”
He will explore how the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Places in Canada are interpreted when designing in heritage contexts, referencing the “Philadelphia Approach” and its potential fit within the NCC’s planning framework. He’ll also reflect on best practices from other jurisdictions and their relevance to Canada's capital.
Whether you're a longtime member or new to the community, this is a great opportunity to reconnect, reflect, and help shape the future of our local architecture scene.
