FAAS Architecture
Role: GIS Systems Designer & Analyst
Produced At: FAAS Architecture
Timeline: June 2025 - September 2025
As part of FAAS Architecture's 2025 rebrand, I was tasked with building a custom GIS web application that could spatialize the firm's projects across Canada, demonstrating the breadth of their work. Rather than adopting an off-the-shelf map plugin, I chose to build the application from scratch, ensuring it matched the rebrand's identity while giving FAAS a tool that could grow with the firm.
As the sole GIS Systems Designer & Analyst, I took ownership of this project end-to-end; proposing available viable technologies, managing and communicating scope and timelines, gathering and migrating content, design, prototyping, application development, and deployment.

FAAS Projects Map
Spatializing FAAS Projects Across Canada in an Engaging Way
With nearly 300 projects across Canada, the map needs to illustrate both the gravitas and extent of FAAS’ influence in an effective and engaging way.

Synchronized Filtering
The interactive map features a synchronized filtering system driven by each project’s typology-code and status-code.
Users can apply single or combined filters to isolate specific work.

The user experience is designed first to be intuitive on mobile breakpoints.
Panels behave like native apps, with draggable “pull handles” and snapping min-mid-max states for the projects list. A geolocation feature is available for users to easily find FAAS projects in the wild.
