Terry
Terry’s background in construction began in Muskoka. He brings hands-on building experience and practical problem-solving to the structure, site and sequence of each project.
His work centres on understanding the building and carrying the plan through to the details on site.
Theresa
Theresa’s family connection to wooden boat building and her interest in art inform her approach to materials, colour and finishing.
She brings an eye for how original details and new work fit together, with an interest in handcrafted elements and considered material use.
Our approach
Keep the character.
Improve the use.
We focus on the cottage you have and the structures around it. That can mean repairing an older building, making room for a changing household, or renewing the connection to the water.
The work begins with a clear scope and a practical understanding of the property.
