After practising as an architect and town planner in Italy, he moved in 1939 to England and in 1940 to Canada, where he was guest lecturer in Town Planning at McGill and the University of Toronto, 1940-1942. He became consulting planner and member of the Technical Committee of the Toronto City Planning Board, and was in charge of preparation of the first master plan for the Toronto metropolitan area, 1942-1943.
In 1944 he established Town Planning Consultant Limited (name changed to E.G. Faludi and Associates Limited, 1971), and was responsible for the preparation of planning studies for many municipalities and private firms, primarily in metropolitan Toronto and other parts of Ontario, until his retirement in 1977.
Faludi was President of the Town Planning Institute of Canada, 1954-1955, and member of a committee which reactivated that organization in 1952. He published many articles and papers on town planning.
