Our Work

Whistler Passive House

Honestly, this one was tricky. Client wanted net-zero in a ski resort town where it gets properly cold. We ended up with triple-glazed windows you could practically lean on, 16-inch insulated walls, and an HRV system that recovers 92% of heat. The place stays warm with what's basically the heat output of a hairdryer.

North Shore Roastery

A coffee shop that needed to feel warm but keep energy bills sane. Radiant floor heating, south-facing glass with motorized shading, and reclaimed timber everywhere. Smells like fresh coffee and sustainable design.

Burnaby Innovation Hub

Tech company wanted a LEED Platinum office that didn't look like a glass box. We gave 'em mass timber construction, a green roof that handles snow load, and enough natural light to make everyone forget it's grey outside half the year.

Okanagan Lakeside Retreat

Built for a couple who splits time between Toronto and BC. They wanted something that could handle both summer heat and winter freezes without breaking the bank on utilities. Thermal mass walls, strategic overhangs, and a wood stove for ambiance (and backup heat).

Gastown Heritage Building

1912 warehouse conversion that had to keep its brick facade and timber beams while meeting modern building codes. We tucked insulation into places you didn't know existed and added geothermal heating without disturbing the original character. The heritage committee actually smiled at us.

Pemberton Mountain House

Client's first question was "can we have huge windows?" and our answer was "yeah, but here's what it'll take." Ended up designing around the view with strategic glazing placement, heat recovery systems, and roof angles that let snow slide off naturally. Worth every engineering hour.

Alpine Bistro

Restaurant design where keeping windows fog-free was actually a major challenge. Local materials, efficient kitchen ventilation, and lighting that makes everyone look good even on a grey February day.

Sea-to-Sky Cabin Cluster

Three small cabins for a family that wanted individual spaces but shared amenities. Each one's got its own personality but they all speak the same architectural language. Passive solar orientation, wood-burning stoves, and enough insulation to camp out in January if you wanted.
