How We Got Here
Started back in 2011 with a simple idea – what if we stopped tearing down beautiful old buildings and actually learned from them? Our founder, Elena Kythral, was tired of seeing Vancouver's architectural heritage disappear under generic glass towers.
She'd spent years restoring centuries-old structures across Europe and figured it was time to bring that reverence back home. But here's the thing – we're not stuck in the past. We've combined traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge sustainable tech, proving you can honor history while pushing forward.
Today, we're a team of 18 passionate architects, designers, and builders who genuinely love what we do. Some days we're elbow-deep in 1920s blueprints, other days we're modeling net-zero energy systems. Keeps things interesting.
