The Delegation of the Ismaili Imamat is an elegant two-storey building containing meeting rooms, exhibition areas, an atrium, a resource centre and offices for the Aga Khan Foundation Canada and other agencies of the Aga Khan Development Network.
The Aga Khan’s vision of rock-crystal, was captured in the building’s design through features such as the large glass roof projecting from the centre. The 8570m² facility is configured as an elongated, rectangular ring surrounding an interior atrium and an exterior courtyard.
