What We Do Best

We're not your typical architecture firm - we actually care about what happens after the ribbon cutting. Here's how we can help bring your vision to life.

Over the years, we've learned that great architecture isn't just about fancy designs - it's about understanding what you need, where you're going, and how a building can actually work for you. Whether you're renovating a century home or planning a new commercial space, we've got the experience to make it happen.

Residential Architecture

Residential Architecture

Your home should tell your story, not ours. We've designed everything from cozy laneway houses to sprawling family estates across the GTA. The goal? Creating spaces that actually feel like home - not some magazine spread you're afraid to live in.

  • Custom home design from scratch
  • Additions and renovations that make sense
  • Laneway suites and garden houses
  • Multi-generational living solutions
  • Energy-efficient retrofits

Commercial Building Design

We get it - your building needs to work hard for your business. We've worked on retail spaces, office buildings, and mixed-use developments where every square foot counts. Our approach? Function first, then we make it look damn good.

  • Retail and restaurant design
  • Office buildings and co-working spaces
  • Mixed-use developments
  • Hospitality projects
  • Accessibility compliance and upgrades
Commercial Building Design
Heritage Building Restoration

Heritage Building Restoration

This is where we really geek out. There's something special about bringing old buildings back to life - keeping the soul while making them work for today. We've restored Victorian homes, converted old factories, and saved more brick facades than we can count.

  • Historical building assessments
  • Heritage permit applications
  • Sympathetic additions to historic buildings
  • Facade preservation and restoration
  • Adaptive reuse projects

Sustainable Design Consulting

Sustainability isn't a trend for us - it's how we've been designing for years. We'll help you cut energy costs, reduce your carbon footprint, and maybe even qualify for some grants along the way. It's good for the planet and your wallet.

  • LEED certification guidance
  • Passive house design strategies
  • Renewable energy integration
  • Green roof and living wall systems
  • Material selection for low environmental impact

Urban Planning

Urban Planning & Development

Cities are living things, and we love helping shape how they grow. From site feasibility studies to full master planning, we look at the big picture - how your project fits into the neighborhood and contributes to the community.

  • Site feasibility and analysis
  • Master planning for large developments
  • Zoning applications and variances
  • Community consultation and engagement
  • Transit-oriented development

Interior Space Planning

Sometimes the exterior is perfect, but the inside just doesn't flow. We're all about making spaces work better - whether that's reconfiguring your office layout or rethinking how your restaurant kitchen operates. It's puzzle-solving with real impact.

  • Space optimization and flow analysis
  • Open concept conversions
  • Kitchen and bathroom layouts
  • Home office and flexible workspace design
  • Lighting design and natural light maximization

Before & After

Actions speak louder than words - here's what we mean when we say transformation.

Queen West Heritage Conversion

Before Before restoration
After After restoration

Took a crumbling 1890s warehouse and turned it into mixed-use retail and lofts. Kept all the original brick, added modern efficiency. The owners still send us holiday cards.

Annex Family Home Addition

Before Before addition
After After addition

Growing family needed space but didn't wanna move. We added a two-story extension that looks like it was always meant to be there. Now they've got room to breathe.

Liberty Village Office Retrofit

Before Before retrofit
After After retrofit

Transformed a dark, compartmentalized office into an open, energy-efficient workspace. Cut their heating costs by 40% and productivity went through the roof.

Leslieville Laneway Suite

Before Before laneway
After After laneway

Old garage became a gorgeous laneway suite. Now it's rental income for the owners and affordable housing for a young professional. Win-win.

Our Process

How We Work

Look, we're not gonna sugarcoat it - architecture projects take time and involve paperwork. But we try to make the process as painless as possible.

Initial Consultation

We grab coffee (or tea, or beer) and talk about what you need. No sales pitch, just honest conversation.

Concept Development

We sketch out ideas, play with options, and refine until it feels right. This is the fun part.

Permits & Approvals

We handle the bureaucracy so you don't have to. City hall can be a maze, but we know the shortcuts.

Construction Support

We stick around during construction to make sure what's built matches what we designed. Details matter.

Whether you've got detailed plans or just a vague idea, we'd love to hear about it. First conversation's always free - no strings attached.
