FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

While we offer architectural design, we’re not architects. For most residential projects, our BCIN certification means you wouldn’t need to hire an architect. Our unique combination of interior and structural design capability means we can figure out where that load-bearing wall is and where the light switch will be most functional without involving an architect.


Are you an architect?


We recommend reaching out to us before you talk to a general contractor. We’ll be able to create drawings and plans that will save you and a general contractor time and money. However, many of our clients already have a general contractor, and that’s ok too.


Should I hire a general contractor first?


You’ll work closely with all members of the team during the design process. Emily will be involved in every phase, overseeing the project from start to finish.


Who will I be working with?


We typically work within a 45-minute radius of Waterloo Region, covering many municipalities.
