Maximize Your Property with Passive Multiplex
Passive Homes offers you energy-efficient property that maximizes your real estate footprint.
Building Passive reduces your overall costs by helping to lower heating bills during the winter and cooling costs during hot summer days.
With a shift in housing policy, Multiplex are becoming a lucrative solution to the increasing demand for multi-family residences while preserving Gentle Density, which enhances community livability and maintains the neighborhood’s overall aesthetic and feel.
Professional Expertise and What to Expect
We first take the time to clearly identify and understand your important needs, goals, and budget before crafting a solution. We then propose a service package that outlines your unique project; typically, these are either Hourly or a Full-Design Service.
Afterwards we work together to build a conceptual design, usually consisting of a 3D model and sketches of basic plans based on your preliminary budget.
Your vision is then honed down to documents that are suitable for submitting to your projects’ relevant municipality. Working with you in coordinating relevant sub consultant services we recommend local builders, or help you find your own.

Client Cases
On time and on budget, let us project manage and worry about the details.
Multiplex
With housing demands continually on the rise in the Lower Mainland, multiplex developments can serve as a sustainable long-term investment strategy. If considering a multiplex development, an evaluation of local zoning laws, financial and land feasibility, in addition to market conditions is essential to ensure that it aligns with your investment goals and meets community needs.
Laneway
Laneway houses utilize often-overlooked or underutilized areas on a property, maximizing the use of available land while adhering to urban intensification goals.
Building a laneway house is often less disruptive to the surrounding area compared to larger construction projects, making it a favorable option in residential neighborhoods. Laneway houses can contribute to addressing local housing shortages by providing more affordable living options, particularly in the Lower Mainland where housing costs are rising. They can serve as a space for aging parents, adult children, or other family members, allowing for multigenerational living while maintaining privacy.
Fit-out & Interior Design
Renovating a home to include a secondary suite can be a more advantageous option for many homeowners compared to constructing a new building. A secondary suite can often be integrated into unused or underutilized areas of an existing home, such as basements, attics, or spare rooms, making it a smart use of available space. A secondary suite can serve multiple purposes, from a rental unit to guest accommodation or space for elderly family members, offering flexibility based on current and future needs.
