What We Actually Do

We've spent years figuring out how to make buildings work better for people. Here's how we can help bring your vision to life - whether it's a single room refresh or a full-scale development project.

Residential Design & Planning

Look, designing a home isn't just about making it look pretty in a magazine. We've worked with families who need room to grow, couples downsizing, and folks who just can't stand their kitchen anymore. Every project starts with listening - really listening - to how you live.

We'll walk through space planning, natural light optimization, material selection, and all those building code headaches so you don't have to. From initial sketches to final walkthroughs, we're there making sure your home actually feels like yours.

  • Custom home design from scratch
  • Renovation & addition planning
  • Multi-unit residential projects
  • Permit coordination & approvals

Commercial Architecture

Your business space needs to work hard - attracting customers, keeping staff productive, and representing your brand 24/7. We've done everything from boutique retail shops to office complexes, and each one's got its own personality.

We're talking functional layouts that make sense, energy efficiency that saves you money down the line, and designs that'll still look relevant in ten years. Plus, we know Toronto's commercial building codes inside out.

  • Office & workspace design
  • Retail & hospitality spaces
  • Mixed-use developments
  • Tenant improvement projects

Sustainable Building Solutions

Honestly, sustainability isn't a trendy add-on anymore - it's just smart building. We've seen utility bills cut in half, indoor air quality that keeps people healthier, and buildings that'll still be standing strong when others are falling apart.

Whether you're aiming for LEED certification or just want to reduce your environmental footprint without breaking the bank, we'll guide you through passive solar design, material choices, water management, and renewable energy integration. No greenwashing, just real results.

Interior Space Optimization

Sometimes you don't need a whole new building - you just need the space you've got to work better. We've helped clients discover they had way more potential in their existing footprint than they realized. It's like a puzzle, finding those hidden opportunities.

From knocking down the right walls to reconfiguring layouts for better flow, we'll help you make every square foot count. And yeah, we'll make sure it looks good too.

  • Space planning & layout redesign
  • Furniture & fixture coordination
  • Lighting & acoustics improvement
  • Accessibility compliance

Urban Development Consulting

City planning isn't just about dropping buildings on a map. We've worked with developers, municipalities, and community groups to create neighborhoods that actually function well. It's about understanding traffic patterns, green space needs, community dynamics, and all that stuff that makes a place livable.

Toronto's growing like crazy, and we're here to make sure that growth happens thoughtfully. From zoning applications to community consultations, we've been through it all.

  • Master planning & site analysis
  • Zoning & regulatory navigation
  • Feasibility studies
  • Community engagement facilitation

Heritage Building Restoration

There's something special about old buildings - the craftsmanship, the materials, the stories they hold. But let's be real, they weren't built for modern needs. We've got experience bringing heritage structures into the 21st century while respecting their historical integrity.

It's delicate work, balancing preservation with functionality, but when it's done right, you get a space that honors the past and serves the present. Plus, navigating heritage designation requirements? We've got that down.

  • Historical building assessment
  • Adaptive reuse planning
  • Heritage permit applications
  • Conservation best practices

How We Work Together

Every project's different, but our process stays pretty consistent. We start with a conversation - coffee, site visit, whatever works - to really understand what you're trying to achieve. Then we move through design phases, keeping you in the loop the whole time.

No surprises, no jargon-filled emails you need a dictionary to understand. Just straightforward collaboration until we get it right. Usually takes a few iterations, and that's totally normal.
