Discover
First and foremost, we will be attentive to your vision. To create inspirational living spaces that are bathed in natural light, functional and comfortable, while respecting the environment, your budget, your health and that of your loved ones: that is our mission! Our team of enthusiastic experts is always relatable and ready to give their best on projects ranging from the most modest of single-family homes up to more complex or high-end projects: inter-generational, semi-detached or multi-unit housing, indoor pools, medical clinics and others. Moreover, you will benefit from the added value of having design and construction handled under one roof, both teams mutually enriching each other through every project with a free flow of information and ideas. Another of our strengths is always having construction imperatives in mind throughout the process as we construct most of the structures we design!
Quotes
Budgetary imperatives are always a prime consideration and our approach is to propose a financial pre-feasability of your project when you first visit our office, free of charge. Shall you decide to continue with UrbanÉco, we calculate three estimates at the design phase, followed by a quote upon completion of the design process.
Design Process
All our houses are at least certified Novoclimat, solar passive and bioclimatic, have superior insulation and consume a minimum quantity of water and energy. Our design approach encompasses the global site characteristics to maximize the passive solar energy input and make the best use of the topography and specificities of the terrain and the surrounding environment. We can start from a blank page to create your dream home, or you can consult our library of plans from previous projects, style studies and eco-friendly model homes designed by our team. You already have your architect and would like an UrbanEco construction? We will be pleased to discuss with your architects to finalize the particulars of construction and propose green alternatives where possible, in keeping with the project’s technical and budgetary imperatives. Moreover, our architectural drawings are drafted using powerful software specifically designed for building conception. This allows for detailed project visualization with high quality 3D renderings.
Interior Design
The service of interior design is integrated with the design process of the architectural drawings, as it is a key component. We create comfortable, functional and beautiful interior spaces according to your lifestyle and esthetic preferences.
