Timeless Design

One of our firm’s standout strengths is our proven ability to navigate complex zoning areas, particularly Discretionary Zonings. Our successful designs within these spaces respect the existing streetscapes and meet rigorous discretionary guidelines, which has allowed us to contribute extensively to Vancouver’s prestigious First Shaughnessy District. Our reputation for excellence in working within these unique zoning requirements has earned us the respect of local jurisdictional authorities, enabling us to streamline construction stages and enhance efficiency for our clients.
