Issued For Construction AD - British Columbia Series: David & Susan Scott - Scott & Scott Architects

<p>Susan and David Scott are the founders of Scott &amp; Scott Architects, a Vancouver based practice launched in 2012. They met as architecture students at the Technical University of Nova Scotia, later Dalhousie University, completing a Bachelor of Environmental Design and a Master of Architecture in 2000.</p><p>Susan grew up in Vancouver's Kitsilano and Dunbar area, camping across British Columbia each summer; her mother is from Cornwall, England. She studied at the University of Victoria before moving into art history, drawn to the mathematics behind Islamic geometric art. A co-op took her to Montreal to work with Avi Friedman at McGill on an affordable housing project. She later spent over a decade at James Cheng Architects and macfarlane/green/biggar, working on projects including Vnukovo Airport in Moscow.</p><p>David grew up in a small British Columbia town shaped by a river, a highway and a railway, and spent his teens cross country ski racing. A co-op placed him as a structural inspector at the lead zinc smelter in Trail, BC. He then worked at Peter Cardew Architects as project manager on the Saturna Island House and other projects.</p><p>After graduating, the couple built a cabin for David's parents at Lac Le Jeune, then launched their practice with the Alpine Cabin, an off grid snowboard cabin on Vancouver Island that won a 2014 Architizer A+ Award. Restaurant commissions followed, including Torafuku, Kin Kao and Bestie, alongside cabins, houses and a barn across BC, the Pacific Northwest, Hawaii and Ontario. In 2016 they received the RAIC Young Architect Award.</p><p>Susan runs and gardens; David builds furniture in his workshop. They live in Vancouver with their two daughters.</p><p><a href="https://www.scottandscott.ca/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠Scott &amp; Scott Architects⁠⁠</a></p><p>Upcoming Episode:</p><p><a href="https://www.sodapopdesign.ca/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Soda Pop Design</a></p><p>Sponsors:</p><p><a href="https://caplans.ca/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Caplan's Appliances⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://thedoors4u.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Doors⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://aquanta.ca" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
