What We Actually Do

Look, we've spent years figuring out what makes spaces work - not just look pretty. Here's how we can help bring your vision to life, whether you're dreaming up a home or rethinking your commercial space.

We don't believe in cookie-cutter solutions. Every project gets the attention it deserves, with designs that actually make sense for how you'll use the space - today and down the road.

Residential Architecture

Residential Architecture

Honestly? Your home should tell your story, not ours. We've designed everything from compact urban homes to sprawling estates, and the one thing they all have in common is they feel right for the people living there. We'll sit down with you, really listen to how you live, and create something that fits like a glove.

We handle new builds, additions, and complete reimaginings of existing homes. And yeah, we obsess over the details - from where the morning light hits to how your kids will move through the space. That's just how we roll.

  • Custom home design & planning
  • Multi-unit residential developments
  • Heritage home restoration
  • Laneway houses & ADUs
Commercial Design

Commercial Design

Commercial spaces have a tough job - they need to work hard, look good, and basically pay for themselves through efficiency. We've done offices where people actually want to come to work, retail spaces that draw folks in off the street, and mixed-use buildings that become neighborhood landmarks.

The trick with commercial work is balancing function with brand identity. Your space needs to reflect who you are while being practical enough that your team can get stuff done. We've gotten pretty good at nailing that balance over the years.

  • Office & workplace environments
  • Retail & hospitality spaces
  • Mixed-use developments
  • Adaptive reuse projects
Sustainable Building Solutions

Sustainable Building Solutions

This isn't just a checkbox for us - it's baked into everything we do. Climate change is real, and buildings are a huge part of the problem. But they can also be part of the solution. We've been integrating sustainable practices since before it was trendy, and we've learned what actually works versus what just sounds good in a brochure.

From passive solar design to greywater systems, we'll help you figure out which green strategies make sense for your project and your budget. Sometimes it's the simple stuff - proper orientation, good insulation - that makes the biggest difference.

  • Passive house design principles
  • LEED certification consulting
  • Energy modeling & analysis
  • Renewable energy integration

Interior Space Planning

Great architecture isn't just about the exterior - what happens inside matters just as much. We'll work with you to optimize layouts, improve flow, and make sure every square foot is pulling its weight. Whether you're dealing with an awkward floor plan or just want to maximize functionality, we've got you covered.

We collaborate with interior designers too, making sure the bones of the space support whatever vision you've got for finishes and furnishings.

  • Space programming & analysis
  • Flow & circulation optimization
  • Built-in furniture design

Project Management

Here's the thing about construction - it's complicated. There's permits, contractors, schedules, budgets, and about a million decisions to make. We can shepherd your project from concept through completion, keeping everything on track and dealing with the inevitable curveballs that come up.

We've built relationships with some of the best trades in Toronto, and we know how to keep everyone working together toward the same goal.

  • Permitting & municipal approvals
  • Contractor coordination
  • Budget & schedule management

Building Renovations

Not every project starts with a blank slate, and that's totally fine. Some of our favorite work has been breathing new life into existing buildings - whether that's updating a tired 1970s house or transforming a warehouse into something completely different.

Renovations come with their own challenges - you're working within existing constraints, dealing with surprises hidden in walls, and trying to blend old with new. But there's something satisfying about taking what's there and making it better.

  • Whole-house renovations
  • Kitchen & bath remodels
  • Basement conversions
  • Building envelope upgrades
  • Accessibility modifications
  • Historic preservation

Let's Talk About Your Project

Not sure which service fits your needs? That's cool - we can figure it out together. Give us a shout and we'll chat about what you're trying to accomplish.

How We Work

Every project's different, but our process stays pretty consistent. Here's generally how things unfold when we work together.

1

Discovery

We meet, talk, listen. You tell us what you want, what you need, and what you're dreaming about. We ask probably too many questions.

2

Concept

We sketch, model, and develop initial ideas. This is where the big-picture vision takes shape and we start seeing what's possible.

3

Development

Details, details, details. We refine the design, work through technical stuff, and prepare everything for construction.

4

Realization

Construction happens. We're there to make sure what gets built matches what we designed and to solve problems as they pop up.
