PRINCIPAL ARCHITECT AAA, AIBC | CERTIFIED PASSIVE HOUSE DESIGNER | M. ARCH, BFA
After many years of practicing architecture on the West Coast, Hannah returned to her roots in the Rocky Mountains to establish Beau Atelier Architecture + Design. Her vision for the firm is to support responsible, sustainable growth in the Bow Valley, contribute meaningfully to the local housing conversation, strengthen community connections, and enhance the public realm through thoughtful design.
Hannah is Passive House training and approaches architecture with a deep respect for the environment. She aims to create spaces that are not only beautiful, but also high-performing, culturally responsive, and cost-effective.
Outside the studio, she can be found running mountain trails with her husky, jumping fences with her horse, or planning her next long-distance outdoor adventure.
