About
David Pontarini is Founding Partner of Hariri Pontarini Architects, an internationally-renowned architecture and urban design studio based in Toronto. For over three decades, has built a diverse portfolio of innovative, variously scaled high-rise and mixed-use developments. With partner Siamak Hariri, the studio has received numerous national and international distinctions, including the RAIC Architectural Firm Award. As an architect, David is dedicated to crafting high-quality, elegant buildings and inspiring public spaces that forge connections with the communities they serve. Of particular interest to David are the scales at which architecture operates and the impact that working across them can have. Starting with single buildings and scaling up to the block, neighbourhood, and large-scale master plans, David has played an active role in shaping cities across Canada while bringing strategic growth, sustainable development, and diversification to improve the quality of urban life. David’s dual approach to city-building – combining a deep understanding of urban policy with a commitment to architectural excellence – has helped earn the firm a reputation as one of the country’s leading urban design offices.
