CREATIVE SNAPSHOT

Here’s a quick exercise — 10 Words or Less — with Laird Robertson of Robertson Simmons Architects Inc.: Best thing about living in Waterloo Region: “It’s a self-confident community with a ‘Why not?’ attitude.” One thing about the region that I wish would change: “That it would possess a mature appreciation of the intrinsic value of arts and culture.” Architect whose work I most admire: “Le Corbusier, the Swiss-French architect (1887 – 1965)”

My favourite building in Waterloo Region:

“Canadian Clay & Glass Gallery in Waterloo.”

A Waterloo Region building that is an overlooked gem:

“Waterloo Lutheran Seminary in Waterloo”

Favourite world city and favourite building there:

“Rome and the Pantheon.” For more on Robertson Simmons Architects: www.rsarchitects.ca
