Comprehensive drawings and specifications that clearly define scope and quality, enabling accurate contractor pricing, confident bids, and forming the technical basis for construction.
Multiplex Unit Designs
Maximize your property's potential by converting single-family homes into legal duplexes, triplexes, or fourplexes, or redeveloping commercial spaces into residential units. We also specialize in adapting heritage properties into multi-unit homes. Investing in multiplex properties in Toronto can increase your property's value by 25-40% and provide stable rental income.
Design Development
Refinement of the chosen concept into coordinated drawings, outline specifications, and key material and system decisions so the design is fully ready.
Contract Administration
Professional oversight during construction, including site reviews, review of contractor submissions, and interpretation of the contract documents to help ensure the work is built as designed.

Utilize underused laneway space by creating functional, detached residential units, garden houses, or studio spaces. We offer custom designs that optimize space, light, and privacy while adhering to Toronto's zoning laws. A laneway project adds housing, boosts property value, and contributes to a vibrant neighborhood.
