We're not just talking about sustainability – we're actually living it. Every project we take on starts with one question: how can we make this better for the planet without compromising on what makes a space feel alive?
Here's what we've accomplished working with clients who actually care about leaving things better than they found them.
Energy Saved Annually
Water Conserved
CO2 Offset
Material Recycling Rate
Look, anyone can slap "green" on their website. We've got the paperwork to back it up – but more importantly, we've got the projects that prove we know what we're doing.
Professional credentials across our team – we've been doing this since LEED v3
Because healthy buildings make healthy people – it's that simple
Ultra-low energy buildings that perform even during Vancouver winters
The toughest standard out there – we've completed 3 projects under this framework
We run energy models before we even touch a drafting table. Orientation, glazing ratios, thermal mass – it all gets figured out early.
Our contractors know the drill – low-VOC everything, regional sourcing when possible, and tracking every scrap that leaves the site.
Buildings need to actually work for the people using them. We design systems that're intuitive and don't need a PhD to operate.
This one's special – our clients wanted to prove you could retrofit a 1960s bungalow to net-zero without losing its character. Spoiler: we did.
6,500 sq ft of intensive green roof that's become a community space. The building actually produces more energy than it uses over the year.
Sustainability isn't a checkbox – it's an ongoing commitment. Here's what we're focusing on for the next few years.
Our office operations and all project-related travel. We're tracking every kilometer.
Every single project we design will achieve net-zero energy performance. No exceptions.
Full Environmental Product Declarations for everything we specify. If we can't trace it, we won't use it.
Working with local First Nations on projects that honor traditional knowledge and sustainable practices.
Let's talk about what's possible for your project. We promise to be straight with you about what works and what doesn't.
