Look, we've been doing sustainable design since before it was cool. Every project we touch has environmental thinking baked right into it, from the first sketch to the final nail.
Real data from actual projects we've completed over the past 3 years
Average across commercial builds vs. conventional designs
Through smart fixtures and rainwater harvesting systems
Reclaimed and recycled content in our builds
Kept out of landfills through careful planning
Yeah, we're certified—and not just on paper. These aren't wall decorations for us. They're commitments we take seriously on every single project.

Forget the flowery language—here's our real process, step by step
We spend way more time than most firms analyzing your site. Sun paths, wind patterns, existing vegetation, soil composition—all of it matters. I've personally spent entire afternoons just watching how light moves across a property.
We get obsessive about materials. Embodied carbon, toxicity levels, where it's sourced from, how it'll age—everything's on the table. Our material library has notes from years of real-world testing and vendor relationships.
Every project gets full energy modeling—we're talking detailed simulations that predict actual performance. This isn't guesswork. We use software to test dozens of scenarios before we finalize anything.
Here's what sets us apart—we actually come back after you've moved in. We monitor performance, adjust systems, and make sure everything's working as designed. Most firms disappear after the ribbon cutting. Not us.
The stuff that's actually working, not just what's trendy
We're designing for net-zero wherever possible. The tech's finally at a point where it makes financial sense, and the payback period keeps getting shorter.
Why waste water once? Our systems capture, treat, and reuse water for irrigation and toilets. We've seen 60%+ water savings in residential projects.
Fresh air without energy loss—HRV systems are non-negotiable in our builds. They're basically free heating and cooling once installed.
Ground source heat pumps are incredible for the right site. Higher upfront cost, sure, but we've never had a client regret the investment.
High-performance insulation, triple glazing, thermal bridge elimination—getting the shell right means everything else gets easier.
IoT sensors track energy, water, air quality—everything. You get dashboards showing exactly how your building performs. Data nerds, we are.
Last year we completed a 45,000 sq ft office building in downtown Toronto that's now using 82% less energy than comparable buildings in the area.
The owner's seeing a 3-year payback on the sustainable upgrades. That's faster than we projected, honestly.
