portfolio of works by Elisabeth Vitswamba


professional work completed with Philip Beesley Architect and Rolf Seifert Architect in Toronto, Canada.

The Queen West Community Health Centre renovated an area of existing office space to make a Supervised Consumption Site (SCS). The objective of the SCS is to reduce the impacts of substance abuse on individuals and surrounding community. Health Canada has a website that explains the reasons, goals, and how the sites work. The design offers a space that meets the specific operational needs of the SCS while creating a warm and calm atmosphere that does not feel institutional.

I managed all parts of the project under the supervision of the project architect Rolf Seifert including all client communication, engineering coordination, construction documentation, bidding and negotation, and contract administration.
