“We can highly recommend BLDG Workshop with complete confidence. In contrast to the many bumps along the way of our renovation and addition, the design process was exciting and enjoyable. Nathan and his team of professionals were timely and efficient, good at communication, and willing to work with the trades we had hired; however, their best attribute is of course their smart, inspired design! Our favourite part of working with BLDG was the collaborating... they are the experts but they listened to our ideas and were excellent at incorporating our whims and wishes. We will definitely be contacting BLDG the next time we build!”

“I hired Gabriele and his company, Geometra Design in June 2012 to design a 3,500 square foot, 2 storey home that I will be building in south Etobicoke. Gabriele was able to complete concept design, committee of adjustment application and meeting, building permit design and application in less then 5 months. He was able to accomodate all aspects of the building permit requirements, including mechanical engineer, structural engineer and final renderings. His professionism and approach to the project, including deadlines was unsurpassed. He was able to facilitate all my needs, from design to building permit application (which in Toronto in not easy). His knowledge of the new digital building permit application requirements, made my application process very easy. I was told at the City of Toronto building department that most people do not have all the documents in the required format, but my application was perfect. I am very pleased with his work ethic and ability to respond to all requests. He was very easy to work with and I would recommend Gabriele and his company to anyone who is looking for a knowledgable architect, who can take any project from start to finish with ease. I look forward to working with him again soon. Gino C - Wynford Homes Ltd.”

“Solares Architecture Inc. from day 1 were a pleasure to deal with. Personable and professional through out. Renovation projects, particularly in downtown are never bereft of surprises and ours was definitely not the exception! Our project was full of surprises and eventualities which where difficult to stomach as they arose. Despite our frustrations, Solares was always there to listen to us, help us re-navigate the project and provide us with alternatives at each crossroads as they occurred and gave the extra 10%. An ethos of under promise and over deliver exists with Solares Inc.”

“We came to CAB Architects after we purchased our home last summer. With the current Toronto housing market, we knew it would not be possible to find our dream home; we had to make it. Brian and Charisma made this process as simple and as straightforward as possible. Renovations are never easy, but it helps to have good people helping you work through it. CAB provided us with a few creative schematic options, developed our favourite one, and helped us find reliable contractors to work with to execute the design. We are so happy with our new home, and would not hesitate to work with them again in the future.”

“We engaged Lindy Consulting to provide some plans to renovate the 3rd floor of our house which was an unused portion of our house which contained two bedrooms and which we were using as additional storage space. Our plan was to move our master bedroom to this space and add a full washroom. We met with Steven and Annette to discuss our ideas and how we envisaged the space and our estimated budget. They came back to us the following week with some preliminary sketches that impressed us. We then gave them the mandate to prepare full drawings and once approved by us, they managed the project from completing the drawings, getting them approved, and seeing the project through to completion. We were quite hands-on in the decision making but they truly took ownership of the project and had our best interests in mind throughout. Although we ended up spending more than we budgeted (which was as a result of our decision to upgrade bathroom appliances, flooring etc.), we are really pleased with the final result.”

“Started to work with this firm earlier 2017 on a 3rd floor addition project for a century old heritage home in Toronto. The experience so far has been great! The chief architect demonstrated in-depth knowledge in building code/zoning/building process/heritage constraints etc., which resulted in a smooth consultation/design/drawing processes. The lady in charge of the coordination and communication has excellent communication skills, and has always been quick to respond to our inquiries and address our concerns. The heritage committee had some special requirements on our initial drawing, and Bananarch came back with some smart ideas and got final approval from the city. Highly recommend! Bottom line is, if you want to hire a desgin/build firm whom you can trust, and who can take you through from A to B, then this is it.”

“Timing: quick to respond and turn around at all stages of the 200k home reno Consultation: good listener and incorporated our wish list into drawings; made some additional suggestions and revised to final spec. Design: brought our vision to life from initial sketches to drawings issued for construction; 3rd Party Coordinator: handled electrical engineer and helped with GC convos; very collaborative with trades; Trustworthy, knowledgeable and professional at all times. Advisor and coach: helped us navigate difficult situations; recommended material sources; went beyond the call of duty at committee of adjustment hearing to defend our design and get approval; Available in timely manner for all stages of renovation; I would work with Atelier Pool again. I would do a better job at managing scope of work / cost - approx. 30k for services, including initial design work, engineer and ongoing consultation.”

“Lattag Studio provided us with architectural drawings for an unused space that we planned to turn into a two bedroom apartment. Great work, innovative use of the space available, responsive, quick, listened and adapted drawings to our suggestions, and provided us insightful advice as to what could and could not be done.”

“We highly recommend Captive Designs for their knowledge, responsiveness and professionalism. We had a great experience working with them and appreciate the thoughtful design management and attention to detail that went into the project.”

“Erik helped us with our bathroom renovation design. He was very helpful in helping us get the most use of a very small space. His knowledge of where to get the best prices on the best materials was really great.”
