How can we face both these seemingly contradicting challenges together?
For us it’s clear that we need to build homes in a way that allows our natural world to rebound and flourish alongside our communities. We believe we can make a positive contribution to human and natural systems through the homes we build. The choice to build regeneratively comes from seeing ourselves as part of the living world instead of separate.
Our practice evolves as technologies and understanding grow to meet the needs of our future.
Regenerative design occurs when the building process takes into account the surrounding people and environment in order to maximize our beneficial impact.
We incorporate mass plantings into our projects, rewilding and providing natural habitat alongside human homes. We consider water, heat, energy, lifestyle, transportation, waste, food, how those sync and compliment earth’s systems. Through conversations with members of the community, both current and future, we will integrate into the neighbourhood and provide a place you feel proud to call home.

Why
Squamish?
We’re building in Squamish because Squamish is where we love to live.
Over the last decade, as we’ve watched the town grow and change, we realized there’s a unique opportunity to help shape the future of Squamish towards a resilient community where its urban environment is as connected to nature as its people are. Immediate access to the outdoors has always defined the town, drawing remarkable, caring, talented people.
It’s simply a great place to call home.
