WZMH Architects is an award-winning international architectural partnership based in Toronto, Ontario. WZMH believes in a collaborative approach to all assignments, with all project participants working closely together in order to achieve a common goal: the delivery of the project to meet or exceed the expectations of the client.
The firm’s expertise encompasses all aspects of the architectural process, from master planning, site evaluation and feasibility studies, through the design and construction documentation phases, to the final selection of finishes and fittings for building interiors.
WZMH Architects recognize that the final built form must achieve a balance between the practical and the aesthetic: that good design goes beyond superficial appearance and informs all aspects of achieving a built solution that is tailored to the intended use.

Please note that all heights shown in italics/red are estimated heights. These have been calculated based on known floor counts for the building, then extrapolated through analyzing typically hundreds of buildings of the same function on this database that do have confirmed heights. The user should be aware that non-standard building features, such as significant spires or raised entrances / podiums, may affect the accuracy of these estimations.
