As a founding partner, Ralph Giannone has led Giannone Petricone Architects in fulfilling a vision for a diverse practice whose work, regardless of type or scale, is infused with exceptional rigor in design details and an extraordinary passion for people-first urbanism.
The range of awards and international recognition for Ralph’s work is testament to the strength in diversity of the practice, and how one type of project can significantly inform another. He leads design dialogue, working closely with teams on projects with an unparalleled talent for scale-agnostic design, including large scale intensification and infrastructure to new building typologies to experimental custom interiors. Ralph builds the design culture of the firm, elevates the calibre of its work, and promotes GPA’s conviction that design happens in all types of projects and in every phase of work. As a consummate urbanist, Ralph champions GPA’s expertise across
design disciplines and shares this expertise in the profession locally and abroad.
Ralph Giannone is a member of the Ontario Association of Architects and the Alberta Association of Architects and in 2013 was made a Fellow of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada. Since its inception in 2007, Ralph has been a member of the City of Toronto Design Review panel. Recent honours include the 2024 Architecture Master Prize, 2024 Grands Prix du Design Awards, 2024 Best of Canada Award, 2024 Architizer Award, 2023 AZURE People’s Choice Award, 2023 Best of Design AN Award, and the 2023 Architecture and Design Firm of the Year Award by the ICCO, Canada.
