FBM has been practicing 'people-driven design' since 1917. Based in Halifax, we are one of Atlantic Canada’s most recognized firms creating award-winning designs that are powerful, creative, elegant, and most importantly, that build communities. Located in downtown Halifax, Nova Scotia, FBM practices regionally, nationally, and internationally. Our comprehensive team includes architects, interior designers, technologists, and sustainability experts allowing us to provide excellent service on a broad range of projects. Our portfolio of work includes commercial, residential, hospitality, educational, industrial, health care, and cultural projects, in both the private and public sectors. FBM contributes to the success of each of our clients through the commitment, creativity, and diligence of our staff. We work collaboratively in a studio environment using the broad skills and experiences of the entire team. Consequently, FBM is known for the very high level of service it provides, working closely with each client to address their specific needs on every project. Striving to have a positive impact on the community, FBM encourages civic involvement and best practices in its work. Many staff members are involved in professional associations and community organizations and activities. Several regularly give lectures or teach at Dalhousie University’s School of Architecture. Believing in the benefits of strategic alliances, FBM has also completed many projects over the years in association or full partnership with other architects, both nationally and internationally.
