Most people aspire to have a home that is a reflection of their personality and style. To ensure this aspiration becomes a reality during the construction phase, it’s essential to enlist the services of an architect before reaching out to a contractor. 

I’m Marilyn Ypes, the proud owner of Marilyn Ypes Architect Inc.

I look forward to sharing my story. I hope that you will enjoy getting to know me better.

A couple of years ago my husband and I rescued a little orange boy kitten from the countryside in northern Durham Region. He was hungry, scruffy, and in urgent need of medical care.  At the same time, my husband started chemotherapy for his cancer. The kitten, Squiggy, became my husband’s chemo buddy, never leaving his side day or night. Both were nursed back to health, or so we thought.  The day after my husband got the news that he no longer needed chemotherapy, Squiggy crashed. After a valiant fight which included a blood transfusion and ICU care, Squiggy passed away at 8 months old. It seemed as if our kitten angel, Squiggy, was sent to keep my husband company and now that his job was done it was time for him to leave us.

You get that dreaded call in the middle of the night. The one that tells you that your mother had a stroke and is in the hospital. I got that call and it eventually led to my mother moving in with me so I could care for her.

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new website!
