Imagine your ideal home: your desires, your lifestyle, and how you and your family fit into this space. These are among the aspects we explore deeply during our comprehensive consultation with each client. Through this process, we ascertain the project requirements, understand who will reside in the home, and uncover the vision our clients hold for their future residence. Through a thorough examination of the site and city zoning by-laws, we aim to pinpoint any potential constraints on the home’s design, along with the need for minor variance approval from the Committee of Adjustment if necessary. Additionally, this phase of the project involves identifying potential requirements of other necessary approvals such as Urban Forestry, Conservation Authority, and RNFP (Ravine and Natural Feature Protection), etc. During our initial project discussions, we thoroughly examine this information to ensure that the project’s objectives are realistic. We firmly believe that comprehending and communicating feasibility constitutes the foundational phase of any project. We firmly believe that grasping and conveying feasibility constitute the fundamental pillars of any project’s initiation.

Initial Schematic and Concept designs based on the Client’s requirements. The initial schematic design phase stands as the cornerstone of the entire design endeavor, crucial in ensuring alignment with project specifications, feasibility, and zoning regulations. Within this phase, proposed floor plans, alongside 3D exterior perspectives of the Facade. The primary objective of this phase is to breathe life into the client’s project vision and set the direction for the remainder of the project’s development. Throughout our presentation, we lead you through the intricacies of our design process and the rationale behind your proposal, offering thoughtful recommendations along the way.

Upon receiving feedback from the client regarding the conceptual design, we can make necessary adjustments before refining the drawings into a comprehensive design development package and craft 3D photorealistic renderings showcasing both the front and rear perspectives of the home’s exterior. This stage provides an invaluable opportunity to explore various options for exterior materials, colour schemes, lighting arrangements  (natural and/or artificial), and landscaping features.
