Residential & CUSTOM HOMES
We will help transform your dreams and visions of a beautiful home into reality. Creating a home you aspire to will entail functional, aesthetic and detail oriented design together with cost-effective strategies to come up with a home you can be proud of. Our deep experience and knowledge will make this process straightforward and convenient. Upon request we can create 3D renderings for you to better visualize your home.
MIXED-USE DESIGN
Mixed–use design has been at the forefront of community and urban design development policies of many North American cities. It is an optimal approach of developing buildings and areas that have multiple uses such as residences, hotels, office space, shopping, restaurants, public space, cultural attractions and services such as medical facilities. Adaptive re-use (change of use) is also one aspect of this development concept. DO Studio is your good partner for this endeavor.
RETAIL
We provide designs and plans for new commercial buildings or interior fit-outs/alterations of existing or relocating commercial units. Our store design sensibilities include creating new store aesthetics and satisfying existing brand identities, including complying with local building codes and zoning laws. We strive to exceed expectations and a list of satisfied repeat business firms.
OFFICES
New business that is starting or existing businesses that are growing, expanding or moving requires designs and plans for both the building owner and the local authorities.Whether it is a business, professional or medical office, DO Studio will provide designs and plans that will adhere to its clients requirements as per aesthetics, function, time and cost.
RENOVATIONS / ALTERATIONS
In undertaking building renovations or alterations, numerous decisions needs to be taken. These decisions will affect the overall project from a design, time and cost perspective. Knowledge of the optimal options always assist in making good decisions. Renovation-alteration projects that require structural, plumbing and/or electrical work needs careful planning and design. Whether it is a kitchen or bath or reconfiguring walls/layouts, it’s always better to procure designs that align with the client’s goals, intended use and purposes.
ADDITIONS
Additional square footage or units always creates and adds best value to buildings or dwellings, the planning and design of which can be complicated. It almost always improves the quality and the functional spaces of the workplaces / residences. Any project addition needs to designed properly and be checked against all applicable laws for health and safety, including building codes and zoning bylaws being enforced by the local authorities.
DEVELOPMENT
For real estate development design, planning and approval process, we engage our team of planners, designers, engineers and project managers to bring about the best use/s of a project site, maximising its potential for revenue and serving as a beautiful and functional addition to the urban landscape. We go hand in hand with our client every step of the way, from project inception up to eventual construction.
PERMITS /APPROVALS/ REMEDIATION
To build new, add or improve the exterior/interior of any building, one must obtain the proper approval from all the authorities having jurisdiction. This process can be complex and may require the support from the community and city, sometimes the region. Permits and approvals are required before any construction. We are here to help you in the processing and the coordination of the project.
