Honestly? We've spent the last decade figuring out how buildings can work with nature instead of against it. That means fewer compromises and more spaces that actually feel right.
Based in Toronto but working across Canada, we've learned that good architecture isn't about chasing trends or slapping together whatever's popular this month. It's about understanding how people move through spaces, how light changes throughout the day, and yeah, how to keep your energy bills from making you cry.
Our approach? Start with what makes sense. Use materials that'll last. Design for the long haul, not just for Instagram. And if we can sneak in some natural ventilation or passive solar heating that actually works, even better.
More About UsSix things we've gotten pretty good at over the years
Whether it's a new build or reimagining what you've got, we design homes that fit how you actually live. No cookie-cutter layouts here.
From retail to office spaces, we create environments where people want to spend time and businesses can thrive without breaking the bank on utilities.
This is where we geek out. Green roofs, passive heating, rainwater systems - stuff that actually makes a difference and pays for itself down the road.
Making sure the inside works as well as the outside looks. Flow matters, and we've learned a thing or two about getting it right.
We stick around from concept to completion. Someone's gotta keep contractors honest and make sure what gets built matches what we drew.
Old buildings have good bones and stories worth keeping. We bring them back to life while sneaking in modern performance upgrades.
Look, we all know the planet's not doing great. But here's the thing - building sustainably doesn't mean living in a yurt or giving up on comfort.
We've been designing with the environment in mind since before it was trendy, and we've learned what actually works versus what just sounds good in a sales pitch. Solar panels are great, but proper orientation and insulation? That's where the real magic happens.
Every project we take on starts with a simple question: how can this building use less energy and materials while still being a place people love? Sometimes the answer's high-tech, sometimes it's just common sense that got forgotten somewhere along the way.
