Dental Clinic
Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
1979
Designed by the firm Holliday-Scott Paine Architects, the Dental Clinic has been the home of the College of Dentistry since 1979. Its principle designer, John Holliday-Scott, was a particularly talented architect who adapted the modernist sensibility of his time to the context and historical traditions of the University, in a characteristically inventive way. In this and other buildings such as the Law-Commerce complex and the Lutheran Seminary, Holliday-Scott re-framed the familiar materials of the campus and re-interpreted the traditions of the Collegiate Gothic style. The Dentistry Building has heritage significance as a particularly successful and highly original example of late Modern architecture.
