Darryl Pollock

Architectural Designer III

Darryl Pollock joined TAWAW Architecture because of its commitment to
community-driven design and Indigenous-led architectural practices. The firm’s
approach to storytelling through built form resonated with her own passion for
creating spaces that are thoughtful, inclusive, and responsive to both people
and place. Having worked on ‘Missing Middle’ housing and research-driven design
projects, Pollock was drawn to TAWAW’s innovative methodologies and its emphasis on
meaningful engagement.

Born and raised in Calgary, Pollock earned her Master of Architecture from the University of Calgary and a Bachelor of Design from Alberta University of the Arts. Her architectural interests span parametric design, robotic fabrication, and material research, blending technology with craft. Beyond architecture, Pollock have a background in photography, a love for ceramic arts, and a deep appreciation for music. She’s always excited about design that pushes boundaries and tells a compelling story.
