👋 Meet Leigh Linsey — a new team member at B&A!
A thoughtful and endlessly creative planner, Leigh brings care, curiosity, and collaboration to every project.
With a Master... of Planning, a sharp design sensibility, and a passion for placemaking, tactical urbanism, and visual storytelling, he’s already making waves in the planning world.
From leading The Yellow Cube two-part zine series while he was at @ucalgarysapl, to exploring Southern Alberta by foot and bike; Leigh’s work is shaped by hands-on experience and a deep love for cities.
We’re thrilled to have him on board!

For us, Earth Day isn’t just one day—it’s built into how we work. 🌎
Our offices in Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver are located downtown so it’s easier for our team to walk, ...bike, or take transit. It’s a small part, but it helps us make more sustainable choices every day.
Through our Sustainability and Environment services, we work closely with clients to bring nature into the everyday—through greener neighbourhoods, protected spaces, and more thoughtful design.
We’re always learning and always improving—for our communities and the planet.

That’s a wrap on an incredible week attending the Banff Pipeline Workshop at the @banffcentre!
We had a great time connecting at our exhibitor booth and diving into key industry ...conversations.
👏 Big shoutout to Nathan & Kayla for their feature stage presentation on proactive land use monitoring around pipeline systems—key for safety, risk mitigation, and collaboration. And to Oliver for his insights in Working Group 12, exploring right-of-way management, regulatory challenges, and emerging technologies.
✨ Key takeaways:
◾️ Early land use monitoring strengthens stakeholder relationships & improves development outcomes.
◾️ Streamlining pipeline crossing processes is crucial for efficiency & compliance.
◾️ Innovation & collaboration continue to shape sustainable pipeline development.
Huge thanks to the Banff Pipeline Workshop organizing committee, and of course, the stunning Banff views didn’t hurt either! 🌿🏔️
