We are an award-winning architectural partnership based in Toronto. Creating distinctive buildings of lasting value for nearl ... y 60 years. The Webb Zerafa Menkes Housden Partnership was established in 1961 by four associates of the iconic Canadian architect, Peter Dickinson. After Peter’s untimely passing, and with commissions to complete for Izzy Sharp of Four Seasons Hotel and Kenneth Rotenberg of Y&R Properties, our new firm was founded and went on to design its first modernist landmark projects in Toronto. Through the 1960s and '70s, we designed such iconic buildings as the CN Tower, the Royal Bank Plaza, and multiple signature office buildings in downtown Toronto and Calgary. Through the 1980s and '90s, WZMH’s work followed its clients, expanding into the USA, the Middle East, and China. After 59 years and renamed as WZMH Architects, the firm has evolved from its modest roots to a global force in architectural design, with a showcase of buildings in every large Canadian city and many throughout the world. Built on innovative design, technical expertise and dynamic leadership, the firm’s experience includes significant Institutional, Residential, Corporate, Hospitality and Recreational projects in Canada, the United States, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Since its inception, WZMH has evolved into a practice of over 150 professionals combining individual creativity and experience with the efficiency and reliability of a major architectural firm. WZMH strives to achieve excellence in Architecture through a respect for cooperative client relations and a commitment to value and sustainable construction practices. read more
