Building Tomorrow, Responsibly

We're not just designing buildings—we're creating spaces that actually give back to the planet. Here's the real deal on how we're making it happen.

How We Actually Do It

Passive Design

Passive Design

We orient buildings to catch natural light where it matters and keep heat out when it doesn't. Basic physics, done right—it's surprising how many folks skip this step.

Green Infrastructure

Green Infrastructure

Living roofs, rain gardens, bioswales—they're not just pretty additions. They manage stormwater, reduce heat islands, and honestly make the whole neighborhood better.

Material Selection

Smart Materials

We source local when we can, pick recycled content over virgin materials, and look at the whole lifecycle. Every material choice either adds to or subtracts from the planet's burden.

Energy Systems

Energy Systems

High-efficiency HVAC, smart building controls, and renewable energy integration. We're talking real-time monitoring so you know exactly where every watt goes.

Water Management

Water Management

Rainwater harvesting, greywater systems, low-flow fixtures—the works. Vancouver gets plenty of rain; might as well capture it and put it to use instead of watching it run off.

Indoor Quality

Indoor Quality

Low-VOC materials, proper ventilation, natural daylighting—people spend 90% of their time indoors. Making that air clean and the space comfortable isn't optional for us.

Carbon Footprint: The Real Comparison

Here's what happens when you compare our sustainable projects against conventional builds. The difference isn't small—and it compounds year after year.

That's enough energy saved to power 18 average Canadian homes for a year. And that's just one building.
