Recognition & Achievements

Honestly, we're pretty stoked about these. Each one represents late nights, tons of collaboration, and our commitment to pushing sustainable design forward.

Our Trophy Case

We didn't get into architecture for the awards, but man, it feels good when people notice the work. These recognitions keep us motivated and remind us why we're so passionate about what we do.

Architecture Award
2023

Canadian Green Building Excellence Award

Got this for our Harborview Mixed-Use project. The jury loved how we integrated passive cooling systems with heritage preservation - something we honestly weren't sure would work until it did.

"Kyrendra L. Quinth Architects demonstrates an exceptional ability to merge historical sensitivity with cutting-edge environmental technology. Their work sets a new benchmark."

— Canadian Institute of Green Building
Sustainable Design Award
2022

RAIC Innovation in Architecture Award

This one caught us by surprise. Our experimental use of reclaimed timber and living walls in the Westbrook Residential Complex apparently made waves in the architectural community.

"A bold reimagining of urban residential spaces that doesn't sacrifice comfort for sustainability. This is architecture that actually lives up to its promises."

— Royal Architectural Institute of Canada
Design Excellence
2022

BC Architecture Awards - Residential Category

The Cypress Hill Residence project was a real labor of love. Steep terrain, strict zoning, and a client who wanted something totally unique. Winning this felt like validation for all those site meetings in the rain.

Urban Planning Award
2021

Vancouver Urban Design Award

Our work on the Granville Corridor revitalization got recognized for creating pedestrian-friendly spaces that actually encourage people to slow down and engage with their surroundings. That was always the goal.

— Canadian Architect Magazine

"Working with KLQ was refreshing. They listened, challenged our assumptions, and delivered something that exceeded our expectations while staying true to our sustainability goals."
