Principal, Merrick Architecture
Gregory Borowski’s architectural vision is steeped in his unusual life experience. Born in England, as a child his father took him around to see many significant architectural projects in Europe. An interest in the poetic potential of contemporary architecture has subsequently informed his work. In 1999, he took on a position with Aeroports de Paris, where he worked on the new satellite terminal of the landmark Charles de Gaulle airport.
In 2001, Gregory returned to Vancouver and assumed partnership with Merrick Architecture. Greg has a passion to bring forward fresh perceptions to significant projects, and believes firmly in the role of a building in the broader context of the city and nature. He has chaired Vancouver’s as well as UBC’s Urban Design Panels. He is presently engaged in the 1177 Burrard tower, has completed Sewell’s Landing in Horseshoe Bay, and is finishing the Alberni project with Kengo Kuma & Associates.
