Leslieville Passive House

This one was tricky—clients wanted net-zero but on a tiny lot. We made it work with some clever solar orientation and insulation you could practically live in.

Residential Sustainable

King West Tech Hub

Converting an old warehouse into a 21st-century workspace—kept the exposed brick 'cause honestly it looked way cooler than covering it up. Green roof was mandatory anyway.

Commercial Sustainable

Rosedale Victorian Renewal

Heritage committee gave us hell on this one, but we got there. Original 1892 details preserved while sneaking in modern mechanicals where no one can see 'em.

Heritage Residential

High Park Minimalist Retreat

Client said "I want nothing but everything"—so we designed spaces that breathe. Storage hidden everywhere, clean lines, and massive windows that basically steal the park view.

Residential Interior

Ossington Bistro Redesign

Turned a cramped space into something that actually flows. Acoustic panels disguised as art, because nobody wants to shout over dinner.

Commercial Interior

Beaches Eco-Home

Whole house runs on sun and good vibes. Rainwater collection, geothermal heating, and yeah—the neighbours think we're showing off, but the hydro bills speak for themselves.

Sustainable Residential

Queen West Flagship Store

Retail space that doesn't scream "buy stuff." Natural materials, flexible layout, and LED lighting that won't give you a headache. Client's sales went up 40%, so guess we did something right.

Commercial Sustainable

Distillery District Office

Adaptive reuse project where we kept every brick accountants would let us keep. Industrial charm meets modern workspace—just don't ask about the permit process.

Heritage Commercial

Yorkville Penthouse Transformation

Took a dated 90s condo and brought it into this decade. Floor-to-ceiling rework, smart home integration, and sustainable materials that still feel luxe. The view was already there—we just made sure nothing competed with it.

Residential Sustainable Interior

Bloor Medical Clinic

Healthcare spaces don't have to feel sterile. Natural light, calming colours, and workflow that makes sense for actual humans who work there.

Commercial

Junction Triangle Townhomes

Multi-unit residential that doesn't look cookie-cutter. Each unit's got its own personality while still playing nice with the neighbours. Zoning was... an adventure.
