Who is Reimagine? We are a Canadian Architectural practice that creates joyful journeys toward regenerative architecture.

For over 30 years we have designed community facilities in collaboration with First Nation, Métis and Inuit communities across the prairies and the north. Recently, we opened a BC/Yukon studio based in

Vancouver, and we are keen to continue our tradition of providing an annual award of pro-bono design services.

The Salmon Award is our offering to Indigenous communities and organizations in BC and the Yukon. We look forward to meeting you!

The second annual Salmon Award for Architecture will provide a British Columbian or Yukon Indigenous community with $20,000 worth of Planning and Design Services. These services can then be used to bring your project one step closer to reality helping you to seek partners or secure funding. It will also help to determine the scope and timeline of your project.
