Our Services
1. Residential Floor Plans — Detailed, Build‑Ready Layouts
Our residential floor plans provide a complete, accurate representation of your home’s layout, whether you’re planning a renovation, addition, or new construction. We measure existing conditions, identify key spaces, and draft clear plans that illustrate walls, openings, circulation, and functional flow. These plans form the foundation for design decisions and are essential for builders, homeowners, and contractors who need precise, readable drawings. Every plan is drafted with construction practicality in mind, ensuring that what looks good on paper also works in real life.
2. Renovation & Addition Drawings — Transform Your Space with Confidence
Renovations often involve reimagining how a home is used. Our renovation and addition drawings include both existing plans and proposed layouts, making it easy to understand changes at a glance. We help clarify which walls move, which remain, and how new spaces will function. These drawings are vital for communicating intent to contractors, coordinating with engineers when structural changes are involved, and preparing for permit submissions. Whether you’re opening up a kitchen, adding a bedroom, or redesigning a basement, we create drawings that eliminate guesswork.

4. 3D Modeling & Renderings — Visualize Before You Build
Seeing a space in 3D helps homeowners feel confident in their decisions. Using Revit LT, we create realistic models and renderings of your project. These visualizations show materials, proportions, room flow, and how natural light interacts with the design. This service is especially helpful for interior layouts, exterior additions, kitchen renovations, and custom homes. Our 3D models make it easy to finalize designs, present to clients, or share with contractors before construction begins.
5. Deck, Garage & Exterior Structure Plans — Practical Designs Built to Code
Exterior projects like decks, sheds, carports, and garages require clear plans to ensure they comply with zoning and structural guidelines. We draft dimensioned plans, elevations, and supporting details to help you build safely and efficiently. These drawings are suitable for permit approvals and contractor pricing. Whether it’s a simple backyard deck or a large heated shop, we provide drawings that balance functionality, safety, and visual appeal.
6. Interior Layout Design — Smart, Functional Space Planning
Effective interior design begins with smart layout planning. We help you reconfigure kitchens, bathrooms, living areas, and complete interior spaces to improve flow, usability, and aesthetics. Our interior layout service focuses on practical solutions that enhance everyday living — from cabinetry adjustments to wall removals and full-space reorganization. Using 3D views and detailed plans, we help homeowners visualize updated layouts and make confident decisions during renovations.
7. As‑Built Drawings — Accurate Records of Your Existing Structure
Older homes often lack updated documentation. Our as‑built drawings are created by measuring the existing structure and drafting a precise digital version of the building. These plans are essential for renovation planning, permits, insurance documentation, and resale. Having an accurate baseline drawing reduces mistakes during design and construction, making future planning much smoother.
8. Conceptual Home & Cabin Design — Early‑Stage Designs for New Builds
Conceptual design is the first step toward building a custom home, tiny home, or cabin. We help turn your ideas into floor plans and 3D models that reflect your vision, lifestyle needs, and site conditions. These concepts can be refined into full permit drawings or passed to engineers for structural review. Whether you're building a Yukon cabin, a compact tiny home, or a full‑size residence, we help shape your concept into a realistic, buildable plan.
9. Shop Drawings for Trades — Millwork, Framing & Custom Details
Tradespeople rely on detailed drawings to build accurately. We create shop drawings for carpenters, millwork fabricators, finishers, and general contractors. These drawings may include framing layouts, custom cabinetry, built‑ins, stairs, handrails, or detailed construction assemblies. Shop drawings help ensure that what’s built on‑site matches the design intent while reducing costly rework or communication issues.
10. Site Plans — Documenting Your Property Correctly
A site plan is essential for almost every exterior project. We draft clear, scaled site plans showing property boundaries, building footprints, setbacks, lot coverage, access routes, and proposed changes. These plans are tailored to meet City of Whitehorse requirements and help streamline the permit approval process. Site plans also help contractors plan for drainage, grading, and construction logistics.
11. Drafting for Engineering Review — Ready for Structural Stamping
Some projects require structural engineering approval — for example, when removing load‑bearing walls or adding multi‑story additions. We prepare the drawings that engineers need to review, comment on, and stamp. This saves time and reduces consultant fees because everything arrives organized and ready for review. Once the engineer signs off, the drawing set becomes fully compliant for permits and construction.
