Who We Are

We inspire our clients with our attention to detail and passion for design, innovation, environmental stewardship, health and well-being.

RED Studio Inc. Architects is a full service architectural and design firm with a focus on environmental design and well-being, firmly rooted in sustainability. It is not an afterthought but a true reflection of our design process and is naturally integrated into our approach.

We understand that people are our greatest resource and we recognize that their health is of crucial importance. Our focus is on creating spaces that inspire those living and working there, making people more productive, engaged and happier in their space.

No two projects are alike and we have therefore chosen not to limit our services to specific building types. Our passion for environmentally-sound design has created a breadth of project experience that stretches across the building industry, including: corporate, commercial, institutional, residential, and educational facilities. We listen to our clients and bring the fullest commitment we can to their project, always exceeding their expectations.
