Misha Bereznyak

As those familiar with him would affirm, Misha is the most thorough and diligent professional you will encounter. His ability to consider multiple scenarios at once without letting any factor slip through the cracks sets him apart from others.

Misha is passionate to understand what makes a place attractive in order to bring their DNA to his projects.

Misha graduated from the Technion, the Israel Institute of Technology (cum laude), and the Planning Department of the University of Toronto. He is a licenced architect and a LEED Neighbourhood ND professional – one of a handful accredited professionals in the GTA.

Before joining Smart Density, Misha was part of the City of Vaughan Development Planning team where he reviewed the city’s most interesting development applications – a valuable perspective that he brings to the practice.

At B+H Architects, Misha’s work included transforming large underutilized sites in the GTA, Ottawa and Greater Vancouver into vibrant, mixed-use communities.

In the summer, fueled by fresh apples, Misha explores hidden gems around the city while riding his bike.
