EVOKE

Architecture is the tangible expression of stories. At EVOKE, we create meaningful architecture that serves as a reflection of societal values, beliefs, and aspirations. With bold and elegant designs, EVOKE honors the past, embodies the present, and envisions the future.



About Us

Founded by Teri Canada, Edwin Harris, and Billy Askey, EVOKE is committed to making a positive impact on communities by creating lasting impressions that stir a sense of nostalgia. As the studio grows, it continues to evolve its approach, blending innovative design with a deep respect for history and culture. EVOKE stays rooted in its mission to shape meaningful, enduring experiences.





Our work is unique, authentic, and a direct result of the communities we serve. The stories our designs tell are the synthesis of each community’s triumphs, challenges, histories, and hopes. Through this process, we seek to elevate the voices of communities that have often been ignored.

Design approach

 Our designs uncover hidden histories. We use materials, colors, imagery, and the surrounding landscape to create a sense of place. Our approach to architecture is bold: we challenge conventions and explore new possibilities. Each project is tailored to the site, its people, and the narrative our clients seek to share, ensuring a lasting impact.
