The Firm

The Firm
Mitchell Architects Inc. has been in continuous
operation since 1964, originally under the leadership
of architects Trevor Bywater and Fred Wallis. Paul
Mitchell joined the firm in 1990 and took an ownership
interest in 1995. He became President and principal
shareholder with the retirement of Trevor Bywater in
1997. The history and experience that resides in the
firm is considerable, as is the depth of our current
resources.

With offices in North Bay and Huntsville, Mitchell
Architects offer three licensed architects, and a
total staff complement of 15 people, working as an
experienced team. We are committed to service
beyond expectations and strive to provide superior
attention to our client needs and wishes.
Paul Mitchell graduated from Carleton University with
High Distinction and was awarded the Raymore Medal
for the highest provincial standing in professional
licensing examinations. Paul represented Northern
Ontario on Council of the Ontario Association of
Architects for seven years and was elected President
of the OAA in 2003. In 2004, Paul was honoured to
be elevated to the College of Fellows of the Royal
Architectural Institute of Canada. As Principal Architect,
Paul is responsible for the design of many successful
projects throughout northern Ontario, and is particularly
recognized for expertise in the Long Term Care sector.

With fellow principals and shareholders John
Weinhardt and Bob Halliday, we are guided in our
work by a fundamental commitment to the pursuit of
excellence in design and construction. The quality of
a professional service is entirely dependent upon the
talents and abilities of the individuals who comprise the
organization. Over time, Mitchell Architects Inc. have
brought together a group of people, in whom we take
great pride, not only for their personal strengths, but
also for their ability to work together as a team toward
a common goal. The responsibility and enthusiasm for
the quality of service we provide is shared throughout
the organization.
