Coming together beautifully 👀

Stoneridge Estates, a modern 55+ active lifestyle community, is taking shape, with brickwork now complete.

Proud to celebrate the approved variance (60 ➝ 66 residents) and exceptional thermal performance for year-round comfort.

🚧 Project Update at Red Roof Retreat 🚧

Big changes are happening at Red Roof Retreat as the original bungalow has been torn down to make way for a brand-new, fully accessible two-storey building. The new facility will include an elevator, single bedrooms, and significantly expanded activity space, growing to approximately 530 square metres, up from about 100.

Construction is well underway. Ground-level joists are in place, masonry work has begun, and framing is in progress. The elevator shaft is also rising, marking a major milestone in bringing this fully accessible new building to life. It’s incredible to see this project taking shape, and we’re proud to support such a meaningful community space.

Stay tuned for more updates as the build continues! 🧱✨

Four disciplines. One team. Better buildings.

When architecture, structural, mechanical, and electrical engineering work together under one roof, collaboration is not an afterthought. It is built into every conversation, every sketch, and every decision.

The result is faster coordination, clearer communication, and more efficient project delivery. Fewer surprises. Stronger outcomes. Buildings that truly perform.

Our latest blog explores why collaboration between architects and engineers is essential and how a multidisciplinary approach leads to better buildings from day one.

Great buildings do not happen because of one discipline working alone. They come to life when different areas of expertise work side by side. One of the mos ...

It’s inspiring to see the innovation, teamwork, and dedication these students bring to the table. We’re honoured to be part of their journey and can’t wait to cheer them on as they paddle toward success! 💛💙

Construction Update: Village Liner Apartments

Our short-term vacation rental apartments at The Garrison Village are coming along beautifully. It was a rainy day during this site visit, which added a bit of drama (and a few soggy boots) to the walkthrough.

The building envelope is nearly complete with exterior cladding, roofing, and windows all finishing up. Inside, drywall and installations are well underway. The team at Alliance Construction, who has completed all construction to date, has also finished the interior suite mockups for designer and owner review. The vision for these suites is really starting to take shape.

We’re looking forward to bringing modern, welcoming, community-focused accommodations to the heart of The Garrison Village. More updates to come as we move toward completion!
