Rockliff Pierzchajlo Architects

Our Story

Over five decades, RPK Architects has generated a body of work within Western Canada that still resonates today with the foundational principles of our firm: progressive architecture; inclusive design processes; and provision of community-centered environments that are functional, sustainable, and aesthetically pleasing.

Our Design Approach

Since RPK's inception, our diverse portfolio has been based on a collaborative and inclusive design process. Each project's success is built on a solid foundation of listening to our client's programmatic and operational needs - testing and verifying all assumptions - prior to jumping to form and materials. It is during the project's infancy where a shared philosophical vision is created. This aspirational concept continues to guide our work throughout the life of the project. We never let go of this vision until it becomes a reality.

Our Services

RPK Architects provides a comprehensive range of services, including programmatic analysis and organization, urbanistic and contextual consideration, operational and maintenance reviews, sustainability, and comprehensive client communication. Our team of experienced architects and designers work closely with clients to understand their needs and create innovative solutions that meet their goals. We pride ourselves on our responsive and direct nature, and our technical abilities and in-house knowledge base ensure that our projects are delivered on time and to the highest standard.

Our Values

At RPK Architects, we conduct ourselves ethically and with integrity. We support and strive for continual learning and personal growth. We are socially and ecologically responsible within the communities we live and work. We endorse the spirit of collaboration. We strive for design excellence in the art and science of architecture.
