TIM HORTON

Associate, Architect

BEnvD MArch MAA MRAIC

Tim joined us in 2020 following the Masters of Architecture program at the University of Manitoba in 2016. Between his undergraduate and masters degrees, Tim worked as a project manager for a local school division, which is where his interest in public and institutional architecture began. His thesis was centered around building inter-urban learning spaces for the 21st century and believes that the highlight of visiting any new city involves a trip to its central library.

Fun Fact: The 300th Canadian location of Tim Horton Donuts was opened just before Tim was born, although his parents don’t remember one in Winnipeg at the time. They liked the name “Timothy” and, despite warnings from his grandparents, didn’t think the restaurant or the hockey player sharing this moniker were well known enough to draw comparison.
