Residential Architecture
MEADOW

We begin with the property, household routines, and the information a builder will need to review the home.
Our residential work covers four project types:
Custom homes for inner-city and acreage sites
Single-family infills and semi-detached homes
Fourplexes and boutique multi-family projects
Major renovations and home additions

Acreage Living
Acreage Home Design Calgary
Acreage homes respond to longer approaches, open exposure, servicing, views, and the relationship between the house, garage, and land. Our work includes Rocky View County, Springbank, Bearspaw, De Winton, Balzac, and Foothills County.
We study access, grade, light, privacy, and views before developing the floor plan and exterior. Our acreage home design approach carries those decisions into permit and builder drawings.

Four Residential Project Types We Design

Custom Homes & Acreages
Custom Luxury Homes
For a new custom home, we work from the property and household outward: siting the building, arranging the rooms, developing the exterior, and preparing drawings for permits and builder review.

Stage 04

Stage 05
Pricing and Construction Questions

Drawing Coordination
What the Floor Plans and Elevations Must Resolve

Arrival and Everyday Movement
The path from driveway to front door, garage to mudroom, and kitchen to outdoor space is part of the architecture, not leftover circulation.

Light, Privacy and Views
Window placement has to do several jobs at once: bring in useful daylight, frame the right outlook, and respect neighbouring properties.

One Design, Carried Through the Drawings
The floor plan, elevations, roof, openings, and key dimensions are developed together so the permit and construction information supports the same idea.
