Studio AHGR is an architecture and design practice focused on thoughtful residential and small commercial projects across Ontario.
Studio AHGR combines strong technical documentation with clear, intentional design thinking. The practice focuses on real constraints—budget, time, approvals—and turns them into precise, buildable architectural solutions.
The studio’s work draws on experience with multi-residential, commercial, and custom residential projects across Ontario. Studio AHGR helps clients move from early ideas to coordinated permit documents with clarity and calm.
From early sketches to permit-ready drawings, Studio AHGR can support a project at different stages. Scope is tailored based on the actual needs and budget of each client.
Reconfigurations, additions, and interior upgrades for houses and small multi-unit buildings, with a focus on clarity of layout and calm, daylight-driven spaces.
Code-conscious drawing sets suitable for permit submission, with coordinated plans, elevations, sections, and details as required for the scope.
Revit-based design studies, plan options, and basic visualization to help clients see the project clearly and make decisions earlier.
Support in coordinating architectural work with structural, mechanical, and other consultants, helping keep drawings aligned and consistent.
Layouts and permit sets for small offices, studios, and retail, including tenant improvements and adaptive reuse of existing buildings.
Revit production, drawing cleanup, and technical documentation support for other architects, designers, and small practices.
A sample of projects that reflect the kind of work Studio AHGR is involved with, independently and as part of larger teams.
Renovation and expansion of an existing home, reorganizing interior space, improving natural light, and preparing a coordinated permit-ready set.
Adaptive reuse of an existing building into new residential units while working with heritage constraints and an existing structure.
Comprehensive re-cladding and redesign of an existing commercial building, including updated façade, entrances, and layouts to support a new program.
Interior alterations within an existing retirement development, focused on plan efficiency and minimal disruption to residents.
Images and documentation will grow over time. Full portfolios and references are available on request.
A short conversation is usually enough to understand scope, budget, and next steps.
Each project is different, but the structure stays similar. The aim is to keep things legible, predictable, and as stress-free as possible.
A short conversation to understand goals, budget, timing, and constraints—and to see if there is a good fit.
Site review, existing information, and/or preparation of as-built plans as needed.
Development of initial layout and massing options, with clear pros and cons so decisions can be made with confidence.
Preparation of coordinated drawings suitable for permit application, with consultant input as required.
Support through comments, revisions, and coordination with other professionals as the project moves toward construction.
If you have a project in mind—or you’re not sure where to begin—the first step is simply a short conversation. There is no obligation.
