The Story Behind the Studio
Look, I started this whole thing back in 2013 because I was tired of seeing the same cookie-cutter designs everywhere. Vancouver's an incredible city with such diverse neighborhoods, and the architecture should reflect that, y'know?
We're not here to win awards (though we've snagged a few along the way). What really gets us going is watching a client walk into their finished space for the first time - that moment when they realize their home or workspace actually fits how they live and work, not the other way around.
Our approach is pretty straightforward: listen more than we talk, sketch a lot before we render, and never forget that buildings are for people, not portfolios. We've done everything from small residential renovations in Kitsilano to commercial projects downtown, and honestly, each one teaches us something new.
The contemporary residential and commercial stuff we focus on isn't about following trends. It's about creating spaces that feel right for now but won't look dated in ten years. Clean lines, sure, but with warmth. Functionality without sacrificing beauty. That balance is what keeps us up at night - in a good way.
