We believe design can, and should, meaningfully improve the wellbeing of our communities & the environment we all share.
About us
Hello. Glad you stopped by. In fact, we were hoping you’d stop by because we’re unabashedly passionate about design and love to connect with those who feel the same. We’re a team of architects, urban planners, interior designers, structural, mechanical and electrical engineers, and landscape architects who truly believe design can, and should, meaningfully improve the wellbeing of our communities and the environment we all share. And we don’t just say that. We mean it! We’ve come together because we see the important challenges facing communities becoming increasingly complex. We believe the diverse perspectives and expertise of our multidisciplinary team uniquely position us to tackle these challenges in ways our competitors can't. We even have clients who would tell you we’ve made the impossible possible! Our work includes designing for urban vibrancy, health and wellness, transportation, education, arts and culture, residential, retail, and commercial, as well as mixed-use solutions which incorporate an increasing number of these. As a group of creatives, we’re known as people who think outside the box. But the truth is we’re usually pushing, pulling, cutting, carving, sketching and modelling our clients' needs that eventually become places for communities to enjoy. If you’re interested in thinking outside the box with us, we want to hear from you.

It is estimated that a wildlife-vehicle collision occurs every 38 minutes in Canada, with associated costs reaching up to CAD $200 million annually. DIALOG first introduced wildlife overpasses in 1996 to reduce the high rate of wildlife-vehicle collisions, and has now completed its seventh landmark overpass, the Bow Valley Gap Wildlife Overpass, outside of Banff National Park. Overpasses have emerged as a major success in advancing both highway safety and environmental conservation, contributing to an 80% reduction in large-mammal collisions. As prime consultant providing structural engineering and landscape architecture, DIALOG received the Minister’s Award for Transportation Innovation at the Consulting Engineers of Alberta Transportation Connects Alberta conference for its design of the new overpass. We are proud to continue to advance transportation safety and wildlife conservation, designing thoughtful and innovative solutions to problems that matter.
