Hoyles Architecture is based in St. John’s, Newfoundland. Inspired by the province’s vernacular architecture, our work draws on the past to imagine a bold future. Each project begins with a close study of the site - its topography, geology, views, and light - combined with the client’s programmatic needs. From there, we create spaces that honor their place, and serve the people who inhabit them. Our work aims to stand out while blending in, creating something new that feels like it has always belonged.
