Our Work Speaks

Real projects. Real challenges. Real solutions we've crafted for communities across Canada.

We don't just draw pretty buildings - we solve complicated domain puzzles that cities throw at us. Every site has its story, and honestly, that's what keeps this work interesting.

Projects That Actually Mattered

Each one taught us something different. Some went smooth, others had us scratching our heads for weeks. But they all got done, and they're all serving their communities right now.

Distillery District Heritage Revitalization
Heritage Restoration

Distillery District Adaptive Reuse

This one was tricky - 1890s whiskey warehouse that needed modern zoning compliance without losing its character. Took us about 8 months just wrestling with heritage bylaws and structural assessments. The original timber posts? Yeah, they're staying put.

  • 12,000 sq ft mixed-use domain
  • Municipal heritage designation maintained
  • Zoning variance approved 2022

Scarborough Community Hub
Community Planning

Scarborough Civic Hub

Brand new civic space built on what used to be an old parking lot. The neighborhood had ideas about what they wanted, and we had to figure out how to fit it all within pretty tight municipal budget constraints.

  • 18-month planning cycle
  • LEED Gold target

Waterfront Domain Study
Urban Domain

Lake Ontario Waterfront Strategy

Environmental studies, flood plain mapping, public access corridors - this one had everything. Coordinating between three different municipal jurisdictions wasn't exactly fun, but we got there.

Junction Triangle Industrial Rezoning
Industrial Rezoning

Junction Triangle Employment Lands

Former manufacturing district that needed a careful balance between keeping employment space and allowing residential growth. We spent months in community meetings, and honestly, you can't please everyone - but we found middle ground that works.

  • 45-acre domain analysis
  • Mixed employment-residential zoning
  • Transit-oriented development framework

Cabbagetown Heritage Assessment
Heritage Assessment

Cabbagetown Victorian Row

Six connected Victorian homes from 1878 that someone wanted to "modernize." We had to explain why you can't just rip out load-bearing walls in a 145-year-old structure. Did the full heritage impact study, and yeah, most of those walls are staying.

  • Complete structural assessment
  • Heritage designation support
  • Facade restoration plan

Etobicoke Suburban Intensification
Suburban Planning

Etobicoke Intensification Study

How do you add density to single-family neighborhoods without ticking off everyone who lives there? That was the question. We looked at laneway housing, gentle density options, and transit corridors. Still working through approvals, but the framework's solid.

  • 22-block study area
  • Community consultation process
  • Zoning amendment proposals

Church Conversion Project
Adaptive Reuse

St. Michael's Adaptive Reuse

1920s church that lost its congregation. Converting sacred space to residential use gets complicated - both legally and emotionally. We preserved the stained glass, kept the vaulted ceilings, and created 8 residential units that actually respect the building's history.

Main Street Revitalization
Main Street Planning

Bloor West Village Streetscape

Local BIA wanted to upgrade their main strip without losing the neighborhood vibe. We mapped every utility, analyzed pedestrian flow, worked with local businesses on facade improvements, and designed streetscape elements that actually fit the area's character.

  • 4-block commercial corridor
  • Pedestrian-focused design
  • Sustainable materials selection
  • Accessibility compliance upgrades

Green Space Integration
Environmental Planning

Don Valley Green Corridor

Working with parkland that sits in a flood plain is always interesting. We had to balance ecological restoration, public access, and climate adaptation all at once. The environmental impact study alone was 200+ pages, but it's what you gotta do when you're messing with natural systems.

  • 12km corridor analysis
  • Flood mitigation integration
  • Multi-use trail planning
  • Native species restoration

Zoning Consultation
Municipal Advisory

Mississauga Zoning Review

City wanted to update their zoning bylaws for the first time in 15 years. We reviewed hundreds of applications, identified bottlenecks, and recommended streamlining processes that were honestly making life harder than it needed to be.
