  • About
  • Urbanscape Group based in Toronto, Canada, is a young, multi-disciplinary design and consulting firm which focuses largely on contemporary design for multi-unit residential, private residential projects, commercial buildings, and corporate interiors.

    The firm excels in its design efforts. As the contemporary building forms and spaces are sometimes difficult to depict and explain, each preliminary design is supported by extensive sets of coloured presentation sketches, physical and 3D models and renderings, in order to fully convey the design intent to the clients. But the unique design is not the ultimate goal. In order to execute its projects successfully, the firm collaborates regularly with LEED professionals on its projects and incorporates the use of sustainable building practices. Some of the recent projects include state of the art mechanical systems, including geothermal heating and cooling, use of heat recovery units, roof-top solar panels and green roofs.

    The firm is set up a studio that collaborates with different design and architectural offices and creative individuals, and creates a unique delivery team based on the requirements of each project. The team follows up each project from initial design concepts to final construction, and achieves the best results when the initial design and design development is continuing with construction management phase of the work, ensuring that the final product stays true to the original design intent, while quality of execution and attention to details remain high. It is Urbanscape Group’s objective to produce contemporary design of the highest quality.

    While the firm is open to any joint project or a challenge, on architectural projects it frequently collaborates with the architectural practice of Archdesign Architects, as both firms share the same office space and support staff.
