Dewson Architects Inc.

Throwback Thursday to this stunning retreat, seamlessly blending into the rugged beauty of the Canadian Shield. Designed with sustainability in mind, this home embraces the natural landscape, effortlessly merging modern comfort with timeless cottage living. Heavy timber trusses of Douglas fir and white pine decking define the heart of the space, while a geothermal heat loop harnesses the earth’s energy, providing efficient and radiant warmth throughout both levels. At Dewson Architects, we believe in creating homes that are as sustainable as they are beautiful—spaces that not only respect their surroundings but enhance them. What elements of sustainable design inspire you the most? #sustainablearchitectstoronto #beautifulcottages #cottagedesign #dewsonarchitects #SustainableArchitecture #CottageLife  

If you aren’t on Brandon Donnelly’s daily newsletter, we recommend signing up here: https://lnkd.in/g33aUtra Brandon is a real estate developer who writes about city building, and is a strong proponent of densification as are we at Dewson Architects. He wrote about an update to Toronto’s Official Plan, focused on intensifying and adding new ‘Avenues’ to the planning guidelines. https://lnkd.in/gz-mbsc3 If you’re interested in reviewing the Official Plan Amendment, check it out here: https://lnkd.in/gyTfypSg 

Progress continues at Fleming, now in the drywall and tiling phase. The design is taking shape, with the stair details standing out as a refined expression of craftsmanship. Looking forward to the next phase as we move closer to completion. Thank you to our partners for their dedication to bringing this vision to life. #toparchitectstoronto #residentialconsturction #stairdesign #sustainablearchitecture

A closer look at Regal House At Regal House, every material was chosen for its beauty and sustainability. From reclaimed wood to locally sourced stone, we prioritize durability, low maintenance, and eco-friendly sourcing. Triple-glazed windows frame sweeping city views, while deep overhangs and high-performance materials ensure year-round comfort with minimal environmental impact.

Last week, we visited our Yonge Street project to check the progress of the curtain wall installation.  Here is one solution to the challenge of how to install curtain wall while keeping all the trades warm on the inside. It not only allows to protect the inside from elements managing CLT moisture but also keeps the inside work progress at a steady pace.   #toparchitectstoronto #commercialarchitecture #sustainablearchitecture #cltconstruction #CLTprojects #sustainablearchitects #curtainwallinstallation  

Every wall tells a story. For our artist client, this award-winning transformation began by stripping their Toronto home to its bones and reimagining what could be. We created a space where light, air, and life flow freely. The result? An ultra-efficient home where thoughtful details—from passive ventilation to deep southern overhangs—prove that the most beautiful designs often work invisibly.  Thanks to our partners: Interior Designer: Sheree Stuart Structural Engineer: Revive Engineering Inc.
