Look, we're not your typical architectural firm that's gonna throw around fancy jargon. We get our hands dirty with buildings that've got stories to tell - warehouses that housed entire industries, factories where people actually built things, structures with real character that just need someone who gets it.
Based right here in Vancouver, we've spent years figuring out how to make century-old industrial spaces work for modern life without losing what made 'em special in the first place. There's something about exposed beams and brick that you just can't fake.
We're not trying to be everything to everyone. We've got our lane, and we stick to it - taking buildings with industrial DNA and making them work for today. Sometimes that's a complete gut job, sometimes it's barely touching what's already there. Depends on what the building's telling us.
Let's Talk About Your Project
Stuff we've been doing long enough to know we can deliver
From office spaces to retail, we design commercial buildings that actually make sense for how people use 'em. Function first, then we make it look good.
This is where we really shine. Taking old industrial buildings and bringing them back without stripping out their soul. It's trickier than building new, but way more rewarding.
Green design isn't just a buzzword for us. Old buildings are already sustainable - they've been standing for decades. We just make 'em more efficient.
Working with heritage buildings means dealing with regulations, historical societies, and structures that weren't built to code... because there wasn't code. We know the drill.
Sometimes you just need someone to tell you if that wall can come down or if those beams are gonna hold. We've got the engineering chops to back up our designs.
Buildings don't exist in a vacuum. We look at how they fit into the neighborhood, the city, the whole urban fabric. Context matters.
Whether it's a warehouse from the 1920s or a commercial space that needs rethinking, let's grab a coffee and talk about it. No commitment, just a conversation.
