Studio Junction
As part of Doors Open Toronto, the Toronto Society of Architects (TSA) has enlisted a select group of architectural practices to open their studio doors for a weekend in May to introduce the public and aspiring young architects and designers to the world of the architectural studios.
In 2016, the self-directed tours took visitors inside studios across the city to showcase those behind some of Toronto?s most celebrated buildings and to discover what happens behind-the-scenes. The Architects’ Open Studios initiative provides an inside look into how buildings and spaces are designed, allowing the public to see a range of offices, from small to large, located in renovated garages, storefront spaces and office towers to get a unique perspective on the design process and learn firsthand how architects impact lives through the built environment. To help celebrate the range of different architectural studios participating in the initiative, the TSA produced a Studio tour map allowing the public to create their own itinerary by using a printable version.
