Barrie and Langille Architects Ltd.
Halifax, NS
Company Overview
Barrie and Langille Architects Ltd. is a full-service architectural consulting practice, based in Halifax, that has delivered research, design and construction administration services to the construction industry throughout Nova Scotia for the past eighteen years. Although the firm's project portfolio includes design for a variety of settings, - including commercial, institutional, recreational, multi-unit residential and civic - it has had a concentration of experience in the design of educational facilities. Most recently, Barrie and Langille Architects Ltd. has acted as prime consultant to the largest technology-enriched school project ('smart school') ever built in Nova Scotia under a partnership between the public and private sectors.
Barrie and Langille Architects Ltd. provides project services in the areas of master planning, space and facility programming, architectural design, interior design, construction contract administration, and coordination of the subconsultant disciplines on the design team. Over the course of its practice, the firm has provided these services to clients in the private, governmental and non-profit sectors.
Barrie and Langille Architects Ltd. has entered into discussions with engineering subconsultant firms, offering complementary design services, to form a company that will offer a complete package of design services for technology-enriched school projects in developing countries. The educational sector in the developing world is being targeted by the International Financial Institutions for an infusion of funds to fundamentally change the means by which education is delivered. The construction of new schools is seen as a mechanism for improving access to education and the introduction of technology into the school environment is seen as a tool for improving the quality of education and making students in the developing world more competitive in the global economy. To date, international marketing activities have been targeted at investigating opportunities for delivering packaged design and project services to education systems in the Caribbean and Eastern Europe. Early signs point to a receptiveness on the part of governments, particularly in the Caribbean Region, to a strategy which can deliver all aspects of infrastructure design for 'smart' schools through one consulting team. Discussions have also identified potential private sector partners in local markets for involvement in these educational initiatives.
