The Bishop

Portfolio

In 2008, we had the opportunity to work closely with a family to produce a home that would support a large social family. This project was not just about creating a house; it was about crafting a warm and inviting home where every member of the family could thrive.

Our journey began with a deep understanding of the family's unique dynamics and needs. Leveraging our expertise in Revit and Building Information Modeling (BIM) processes, we delved into multiple iterations of floor plans. These iterations allowed us to visualize and fine-tune the flow of traffic and circulation, both in public and private spaces.

The beauty of Revit and BIM processes is their capacity for precision and iteration. We left no stone unturned in optimizing the design to meet the family's lifestyle. It was about creating spaces that seamlessly adapted to their daily routines and activities.

One of the most rewarding aspects of The Bishop project was our commitment to respecting the context of the site. Nestled at the edge of a protected Toronto ravine, the property required meticulous coordination with the Conservation Authorities. We understood the delicate balance between human habitation and preserving the natural beauty of this unique ecosystem.

The lot's depth of 200 feet provided ample space to respect the boundaries of the natural corridor that is home to a thriving deer population. Our design took into account the daily presence of these majestic creatures, ensuring a harmonious coexistence between human occupants and the natural world.

With a focus on Transitional design, we saw the opportunity to showcase our ability to bring the client's vision to life in any context. It was about marrying timeless elegance with functional design, creating a space that exuded sophistication while embracing the warmth of family life.

In the end, The Bishop project stood as a testament to our commitment to crafting homes that resonate with the unique needs and aspirations of our clients. It was about more than just bricks and mortar; it was about creating a sanctuary where family bonds would flourish.
