Our earth’s ecological systems are at a crisis point. People need homes. Conventional building is pushing earth’s systems closer to collapse. People want to do good, and they want better choices.

How do we reconcile these seemingly contradictory challenges?

We need to build better. We need to build homes for the people who believe in better.

At ReGen Homes, 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, not separate. Nature belongs in our urban spaces. Every patch of habitat, from bird boxes to pollinator plantings, to urban trees and parks, provides critical life support.

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.

Instead of leaving things the same – sustaining – we leave things better than we found them – regenerating.

We incorporate mass plantings into our projects, rewilding and providing natural habitat alongside human homes. We consider water, heat, energy, lifestyle, transportation, waste, and food, and how those sync and compliment earth’s systems. Through conversations with members of the community, both current and future, our homes integrate into the neighbourhood and provide a place you feel proud to call home.

Managing Director

Cameron Cope

Cameron’s life mission is to create harmony between humans and nature by enabling people to reduce their ecological impact, while improving their quality of life.

This, combined with a passion for building and sustainable urban environments is what led him to want to change the way buildings, and communities, are built.

With a background in carpentry and an eye to design, Cameron manages the company with solid principles and a strong vision for a better future for all, including the plants, animals, and ecosystems we share this planet with. When not working, he loves adventures in the wild, mountain biking, sailing, and spending time with his young family. Cameron grew up on Saltspring Island BC, and has called Squamish home since 2011.

Why
Squamish?

We’re building in Squamish because Squamish is where we love to live.
Over the last 15 years, as Cameron has watched the town grow and change, he 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, and talented people. People starting and raising families, growing businesses, pursuing their passions, starting a new chapter of life and reconnecting to what’s important to them.

Squamish has space for everyone, and for everyone, it’s simply a great place to call home.
