Jeff Lyness

Principal at MTa Urban Design Architecture Interior Design Inc.

Jeff Lyness, as a principal of MTA Inc., has delivered a variety of complex project projects in the market and non market multi-family, mixed use and adaptive re use sectors. Jeff approaches his work with a critical focus based in a philosophy of human centric design through the inclusion of empathy into the traditional process of design; promoting a connection between the social and spatial realms. He is able to draw on current thinking being explored through his involvement with the University of Calgary School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape as a sessional instructor in the CMHC sponsored Housing Solutions Lab with City of Calgary. As a current member of the City of Calgary Urban Design Review Panel, Jeff aims to foster creativity and new perspectives with each project he undertakes.
