Our homes

Every home custom. Every detail considered.

We build modern, transitional and classic homes across the GTA. Each one is designed for its lot, its street and the family who will live in it.

Styles

Three traditions, one standard of building.

Your home can look however you like. What stays the same is how it's built: carefully detailed, well insulated and made to last.

Modern

Light, proportion and glass.

Clean lines, flat or low-slope roofs, deep overhangs and walls of glass. Modern homes are about daylight, long sightlines and an easy flow between inside and out.

  • Floor-to-ceiling glazing and large sliding doors
  • Cantilevered volumes and deep overhangs
  • Flush, minimal detailing inside and out
  • Architectural stone
  • Smooth stucco
  • Wood slat screens
  • Black aluminum windows

Transitional

Classic forms, modern restraint.

The comfort of a traditional house with the calm of a modern one. Steep gables and simple trim meet warm materials and generous windows.

  • Steep gables with clean, tight eaves
  • Board-and-batten paired with brick or stone
  • Black-framed windows and warm, simple interiors
  • Board-and-batten
  • Clay brick
  • Natural stone
  • Standing-seam metal

Classic

Symmetry that never dates.

Proportion, symmetry and lasting materials, drawn from Georgian and French traditions. Formal from the street, with the open flow of a modern family home inside.

  • Symmetrical façades and hipped roofs
  • Dormers, cornices, quoins and window surrounds
  • Formal front rooms with open living at the back
  • Clay brick
  • Cut limestone
  • Slate or cedar roofing
  • Painted wood windows

Where you're starting from

Three ways to begin.

Every project starts with the land. We tell you what a lot allows before you spend money designing for it.

Concept study

A family home on a 60-foot lot.

How we think about a typical GTA lot: a main floor organized around daily life, with a mudroom where the family comes in and an open kitchen at the heart.

Behind the walls

Built well where you can't see it.

Finishes get the attention. The parts behind them decide how a home feels in twenty years.

  • Quiet, flat floors

    Engineered floor joists with glued and screwed subfloors that stay flat and quiet.

  • Dry basements

    Waterproofing membrane, drainage board and weeping tile around every foundation.

  • A warm, tight envelope

    2×6 walls with continuous exterior insulation and a taped air barrier.

  • Details that last

    Properly flashed windows, rainscreen cladding and materials chosen to age well.
