Big news here at CTQ.
From Kelowna, BC to Halifax, NS—and now all the way to Cape Town, South Africa—we’re proud to officially open our newest office and expand our global footprint.
More Than Growth—A Shared Vision
This milestone is about more than opening a new space.
It reflects our commitment to:
- Growing a diverse and talented team
- Strengthening meaningful partnerships
- Delivering lasting impact across communities and continents
As we expand, our focus remains the same: creating thoughtful, resilient places where people and environments thrive together.
Why Halifax and Cape Town?
Our expansion into Halifax and Cape Town represents a natural evolution of our work.
Both regions offer:
- Unique environmental contexts
- Strong, vibrant communities
- Opportunities for climate-responsive, nature-based design
By working across these diverse landscapes, we deepen our understanding of how infrastructure, ecology, and community intersect—allowing us to bring global insight into every project we undertake.

A Global Presence, A Boutique Approach
While our footprint is growing, we remain intentionally boutique.
That means:
- Hands-on collaboration
- Close client relationships
- A deep respect for local context
We believe great design doesn’t come from scale alone—it comes from care, curiosity, and connection. No matter where we work, we bring the same level of attention and purpose to every project.
Designing Across Borders
Expanding globally allows us to do more than replicate our work—it challenges us to evolve it.
By connecting ideas across regions, we:
- Share innovative approaches to civil engineering and landscape architecture
- Adapt solutions to local climates and cultures
- Design with both global awareness and local sensitivity
This cross-pollination strengthens our ability to create places that are not only functional, but meaningful and enduring.
Here’s to What’s Next
This is an exciting new chapter for CTQ.
As we grow, we remain grounded in the values that brought us here—collaboration, creativity, and a belief in the power of design to shape better communities.
Here’s to new beginnings, bold growth, and the important work ahead.
