Let’s build a map of Canada’s public buildings and places that incorporates your own experience of quality!

Why does your experience matter to improve quality?

Our buildings, parcs and cities are still designed and based on visions that poorly consider the diverse experiences of the public. By informing decision-makers, students and designers, your voice can help make public buildings and places more inclusive, more valuable and more sustainable.

3 ways to contribute

📷 Take a picture showing what you like in a public building or public space, along with a short description (300 words).

🎤 Record a voice message on your phone while experiencing the place you like and take a picture.

🎥 Take a short video and record your voice describing the place you like and take a picture.
