Determine our zoned envelope (the glass house we can build within), and from there mesh your goals and budget to suit what is permissible in your municipality.

Working within the zoning by-laws and zoned envelope, we work together with you through the basic conceptual schematic design and develop a concrete plan that that works with your budget and lifestyle.

Once design is virtually settled we engage a structural engineer for the structural design portion (where applicable). During this time, we finalize our permit drawing package to reflect the specific scope of work for your project.

With all the forms, application documents, architectural drawings and structural drawings in hand, we’re now ready to submit the building permit. While not necessary, we generally quarterback the permit submission process acting as the clients agent and delivering the building permit stress free.
