After 25 years, Co- Founder & Principal, Shane Friars has left BFA to begin his well earned retirement. Shane has been an integral part of the firm and source of inspiration to BFA from the very beginning. Everyone at BFA would like to wish Shane all the best for his retirement and thank him for his dedication, commitment and leadership
To mark this special occasion BFA principals Helen, Daniel, David & Jamie organised a retirement event for Shane in the beautiful Polygon Gallery in North Vancouver. Together with others, Helen was involved with the evolution of the Polygon Gallery project from design to the end of construction as a member of the Board of Directors and Faculty Committee. Helen was an active member of the team and held a work charrette with Reid Shier, director of the polygon gallery, and other committee members to kick off the fundraising campaign.
