Rebuilt from the studs. Redefined in form. Craft drives every decision.

Originally built in the 1950s, this home was fully reimagined through a complete down-to-the-studs renovation. The floor plan and building envelope were entirely redesigned, transforming the structure into a modern, highly functional residence while preserving the character of its original footprint. A defining feature of the project is the newly constructed concrete garage, which extends beyond its utilitarian purpose to double as an expansive patio off the raised front entrance — a bold and uncommon gesture, particularly within Vancouver. This dual-purpose design introduces a unique spatial experience, seamlessly blending infrastructure with outdoor living. Every detail was executed with precision and care, reflecting a commitment to craftsmanship at the highest level. The result is a home that feels both grounded in its history and confidently modern — thoughtfully rebuilt to meet the demands of contemporary living while standing apart through its distinct architectural moves.
