How We Got Here
Look, we didn't start out wanting to revolutionize anything. Back in 2011, it was just me and my old drafting table in a cramped office on Dundas West. I'd spent years working for the big firms, designing glass towers that honestly... didn't feel like much.
The turning point? A client asked if we could design their home using reclaimed materials and passive solar heating. Most studios would've said no way, too complicated. But something clicked - why weren't we all building like this already?
Fast forward to today, and we're a team of twelve passionate designers, engineers, and urban planners who've realized that sustainable doesn't mean sacrificing beauty. Actually, it's the opposite. When you work with natural light, local materials, and the existing landscape instead of against it - that's when the magic happens.
We've done everything from laneway houses to commercial towers, but every project starts with the same question: how can this building give back more than it takes?
