Episode 18: Gary Switzer (MOD Developments)

In this episode of Livabl Launch, Matthew sits down with Gary Switzer, the award-winning founder and CEO of MOD Developments, to talk about what it really means to build a city. We dive into his move to living in a condo, his early days in architecture and planning, his transition into development, and what inspired him to create some of Toronto’s most iconic buildings.

Gary shares how European city-building has influenced his work, what role architects should play in shaping urban spaces, and his advice to young people entering the industry today. We also talk about MOD’s bold design philosophy, what excites him about the future of housing, and whether Toronto is doing enough to support good urbanism.
