BECOME AN ARCHITECT THIS SUMMER

This summer, let your child explore the world of architecture through hands-on projects and
exciting lessons in sustainability!


VANCOUVER LANDMARKS

Discover the iconic architecture that makes Vancouver unique! In this camp, young designers will explore famous landmarks like Canada Place, Science World, and the Lions Gate Bridge. Campers will study their history and design, then reimagine these structures through 3D model making.

Throughout the week, we’ll analyze real-world examples, sketch new ideas, create a site plan, and build models inspired by Vancouver’s skyline. All supplies will be provided and campers will take home their models to showcase their creativity.

What we’ll learn

  • Architectural Design & History
    Campers will explore how Vancouver’s most famous buildings were designed and built.

  • Urban Planning & Landmarks
    Campers will understand how landmarks shape cities and design their own inspired structures.

  • 3D Model-Making
    Using recycled materials, campers will bring their landmark designs to life in 3D.

  • Collaboration & Presentation
    Campers will present their projects and gain confidence in sharing creative ideas.

By the end of the camp, each child will have a deeper appreciation for Vancouver’s architecture and their very own landmark model to take home!

What skills we’ll learn

  • Urban Planning Basics

  • Eco-Friendly Design Principles
    Campers will learn about renewable energy and green building materials will including parks, green roofs, and urban gardens into their concepts.

  • Model-Making & Hands-On Building
    Campers will build a collaborative green city model using various recycled materials (all electronic free)

  • Collaboration and Problem-Solving
    Campers will present concepts and learn to receive constructive feedback.

By the end of the camp, campers will have gained insight into sustainable urban design and will take home their own "green city" model that demonstrates their innovative solutions for a better future.

“My camp-hating son loves taking classes with Maia and her team. He attended the camp over Christmas break and a pro-D Day camp and both times came home and played with his creation for hours.”
— SERVANE, MOTHER OF 3 BOYS
“My children, 10 and 8, were registered in a weekly after-school program with Petit Architecte and they both came home with very creative and original designs each week! They particularly liked the Halloween haunted house project, the tallest building, and the park designs to name just a few. I would highly recommend this program, which gives children a good insight into architecture as a whole, but mostly it teaches them alternative ways to design more sustainable structures that will benefit our communities and our planet moving forward!”
— KATIE, MOTHER OF 2 Source
