ble for the creation of the first urban design
guidelines for development in Toronto.
On each project, BSN strive to ensure the
highest quality of work possible, and that
begins with strong communication between
the firms' Principals and the clients, as well
as their staff of 10, says Principal Jon Neuert.
"We're very focused on having a high level of
partner involvement in every project, which
is one of the characteristics of our work, our
approach to staffing , and interacting with
our clients."
The open lines of communication are well-
established within the firm itself. At BSN,
the studio environment lends itself to learn-
ing experiences and a team-oriented atmo-
sphere, which in turn helps to keep their
team engaged with their work.
"Our model is studio based," says Neuert.
"We're not a corporate model where we're
subdivided, we establish core teams that go
from the beginning of a project through to
its delivery. We like to expose our people
to everything from pre-design all the way
through to contract administration."
