Our Work

A collection of projects we've poured our hearts into over the years. Each one tells a different story, reflects different needs, but they all share our commitment to thoughtful, sustainable design.

Residential

Rosedale Passive House

Toronto's first certified passive house in the neighbourhood. The clients wanted something that'd cut their energy bills without looking like a science experiment - mission accomplished.

Commercial

Junction Creative Hub

Converting an old warehouse into flexible office space for local artists and startups.

Renovation

Cabbagetown Victorian Revival

Brought this 1890s gem into the 21st century while keeping all the character that made folks fall in love with it originally.

Residential

Muskoka Lake Retreat

A family cottage that works year-round. Floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the lake without heating the whole outdoors.

Commercial

King West Eco-Retail

Green roof, solar panels, rainwater harvesting - the whole nine yards. And it still looks sleek enough to fit into the neighbourhood.

Residential

Annex Minimalist Home

Sometimes less really is more. Clean lines, natural materials, and smart storage solutions that'd make Marie Kondo proud.

Renovation

Distillery District Office

Adaptive reuse project that kept the industrial bones while creating a workspace people actually want to come to.

Residential

Leslieville Laneway House

Proving that small spaces can live large. This 650 sq ft laneway home packs more functionality than some houses twice its size.

Commercial

Queen East Farm-to-Table

Restaurant design that puts local materials front and center - reclaimed Ontario barn wood, Toronto brick, and fixtures from local artisans.

Renovation

Parkdale Kitchen Extension

Opened up a cramped galley kitchen into a bright family hub that actually flows with the rest of the house.

Residential

Scarborough Net-Zero Home

This one produces as much energy as it uses over the year. Yeah, it's possible in Toronto's climate - we've got the utility bills to prove it.

Commercial

Liberty Village Coworking Space

Flexible workspace that adapts to different needs throughout the day. Solo pods, team areas, and presentation spaces that don't feel corporate.
