Client's Vision

To reimagine urban residential living through a sustainable lens, creating a model for mid-rise development that aligns with environmental, economic, and social responsibility.

Design Strategy

Every decision, from structure to finishes, was guided by a commitment to eco-conscious practices. Mass timber construction offered a renewable alternative to traditional concrete builds, while interior selections prioritized regional materials and accessible pricing without sacrificing design integrity.

Key Challenge

Navigating untested building codes and ensuring the project remained financially attainable for future homeowners without compromising on sustainable ambitions.

Our Solution

A collaborative, research-driven approach allowed the team to address regulatory hurdles and material limitations. By sourcing local products and refining the design for efficiency, the project delivered a landmark building that balances innovation, affordability, and a reduced environmental footprint.

Defining Moments

  • Ontario’s first mid-rise residential building constructed with mass timber.
  • A thoughtful balance between sustainability and affordability in every suite.
  • Support of local industries through material selection and supply chain choices.
