They didn't set out to build a smart home. It just made sense once they saw what was possible. 💡
⠀
Lighting control runs throughout this East Vancouver character home, but that wasn't the plan from day one. The original focus was simple: comfort, and making sure there was enough of everything.
⠀
Once the electrician, who's also an automation professional, understood what these clients actually wanted, moving toward full automation became the natural next step. One of the homeowners works in software and already understood how to program and manage a system like this.
⠀
Once they saw the level of customization available to tailor the home to their exact needs, it wasn't really a decision anymore. It was obvious.

One window changed how this whole kitchen feels. 🪟
⠀
In this Burnaby custom home, a horizontal window sits right over the kitchen sink, and it does a lot more than let in light. The homeowners didn't want interior lights on all day, so the orientation was chosen deliberately, morning sun hits the back of the building, bringing daylight into the kitchen through the afternoon too.
⠀
It also means you can look up from the sink and see your kids in the yard while you're in the space. That kind of connection between rooms, not just within them, mattered to this family, and it's a detail we love talking clients into whenever we can.
⠀
A small ledge for plants, a everyday view outside, and daylight that actually reaches the room. Small window, big upside.

A character home comes with rules most people never see. 🏚️
⠀
In Vancouver, retaining a character home lets you go beyond the standard building bylaw, but only if the home earns its character designation. That designation means the facade facing the street has to use materials and details true to the era it was built in.
⠀
For this East Vancouver home, that meant cedar shingles and siding, period-accurate trim, matching window and door styles, and architectural detailing like knee bracing, all matching the home's original era.
⠀
Our team happens to love durable modern materials, metals, composites, the things built to last with less upkeep. None of that would have been allowed here. The bylaw relaxations that make projects like this possible only exist because the home keeps its original character, materials included.
⠀
It's a real tradeoff. Modern performance versus historical accuracy, and here, accuracy won.

Every couple who's shared a bathroom mirror knows this fight. 💄
⠀
In this Burnaby custom home's primary suite, the walk-in closet includes a dedicated makeup counter, its own little nook, built specifically so getting ready in the morning didn't mean competing for the same mirror.
⠀
It came down to good framing, planning ahead for wiring, and making sure there was solid backing for the millwork and counter. A straightforward build, but the kind of detail that, once suggested, was never coming out of the plan.
⠀
Sometimes the smallest additions solve the most everyday problems.

Old houses leak. Not because they're broken, because they were built that way. 🏚️
⠀
This East Vancouver character home needed real work to fix leaks and improve efficiency. Air finds its way through old houses, and moisture follows, no matter what you do to patch around it.
⠀
So instead of working around the existing envelope, the team peeled it off entirely and rebuilt from the original framing out. New air barriers and cladding, proper rainscreen, improved perimeter drainage, insulation under the slabs, and upgraded insulation throughout, all sealed tight.
⠀
Trying to save a bit of old building paper or keep the original windows might feel like a shortcut, but it just leaves another point of failure behind. Starting from the basics and rebuilding all the way out is what lets us deliver real confidence, not just a patch and a promise.

A beautiful freestanding tub is really just the last step in a lot of planning. 🛁
⠀
In this East Vancouver character home, both clients are at or above six feet tall, so a standard tub setup would have meant ducking and hunching every time they got in or out. The team's solution was a skylight, tactically placed to create the exact headroom needed above the tub.
⠀
Getting there took real precision at the rough construction stage. The tub location was spray-marked on site, with the team mocking up exactly where someone would stand and rise from the tub, before nailing down the drain and tub filler locations so everything lines up perfectly. A tub filler even slightly off means water doesn't land where it should.
⠀
The result looks effortless. Getting there wasn't.

They built a plywood Tesla just to test a driveway. 🚗
⠀
Driveways in Burnaby are typically capped at a 13% slope, this one needed to be steeper than that, and the city granted a relaxation given the practicalities of the site. But that didn't solve the real problem: the client drives a Tesla Model S, a very low-clearance car, and it needed to actually make it up the driveway without bottoming out.
⠀
So the project manager and cabinet maker built a full 1:1 plywood cutout of a Model S. The client climbed in with three of his heaviest friends to simulate worst-case weight, while someone measured the lowest likely clearance, just over four inches. They modified the cutout, then physically carried it up the driveway as it was being formed, checking every inch to make sure it wouldn't catch or bottom out anywhere along the way.
⠀
Sometimes solving a real problem looks a little ridiculous before it looks brilliant.

This bar wasn't designed around a Pinterest board. It was designed around one person's actual equipment. 🍺
⠀
Downstairs in this East Vancouver character home is a fully custom wet bar, built for a client who brews his own beer and knows the local beer scene inside and out.
⠀
A tap. A fridge with space for two pony kegs. Wine and beverage fridges flanking either side. A dedicated space built purely for entertaining.
⠀
The client, as the resident expert, drove a lot of the design decisions himself, what equipment needed a home, what needed to stay within reach, and what could live in storage elsewhere. The whole space was built around how he actually uses it, not just how it looks.

They used to get a ladder out just to see this. 🌇
⠀
This rooftop deck is the entire reason this Burnaby home exists. The clients bought the property for the view, sunset right over the inlet, and everything about this house was designed around being able to sit up here with friends and family.
⠀
At their old house, that meant climbing a ladder onto the roof just to catch it. Now, they walk straight out of the living room.
⠀
Since the deck also functions as the roof for the living space below, the team worked with an envelope consultant to specify a membrane that would perform as a roof, meet every building requirement, and carry a long warranty. They also roughed in a hose bib and a gas line for a fire table, so the space is ready for however they want to use it.
⠀
One floor down, there's a second deck that's become the family's outdoor dining room, where a lot of their meals happen now.

This suite didn't start as a suite. It started as a maybe. 🎬
⠀
For this Burnaby family, the lower level began with one simple idea: someday, they might want a secondary suite. Not to rent out right away, but for a son who might stay home longer, or just for the option to have some separation down the road.
⠀
Once they realized it didn't need to happen immediately, they could just plan for it and design accordingly. Drop a range into the space and it's a full working kitchen. The connected bedroom already has its own bathroom, and its own laundry, in its own closet, kept deliberately separate from the main laundry upstairs, because as mom put it, the kids' sports gear wasn't going anywhere near hers.
⠀
Right now, it's a home theatre with a full-size projector and some of the most comfortable fully reclining chairs you'll ever sit in, spec'd with an audiovisual company. But the bones underneath are already there. A functional one-bedroom suite today, with the option to become two down the road.
