Hear it from our clients first:
Eric with Boldera delivered five-star service and results for our project. We couldn't be more pleased with the results.
I found him to be transparent with the contract terms, attentive as we planned, patient as I worked through decisions and changed my mind, a very good listener and open to input. Importantly he was very responsive — with deliverables coming in on time or sooner which I find is rare. Hi style speaks for itself. We would definitely use him again.
Boldera has created an incredible design concept package, including zoning and by-law analysis, detailed site plans, and inspiration images for a large-scale Toronto renovation and addition.
Our clients are in great hands with such a skilled team behind the design of their custom home.
I had the pleasure of working with Boldera on a custom home design. I have worked with other designers in the past and was really surprised with the level of detail in their work.
Not only did they provide amazing design, but were also very accommodating and patient with the home owners. Eric is one of the most creative designers that I have worked with.
Rethinking Architecture,
Sustainably.
We guide you through a proven design process that removes the guesswork, protects your investment, and brings your goals to life with clarity and conviction.
Phase 1
Concept & Planning
Where vision meets strategy — and success begins.
Every successful project starts with clear thinking and bold exploration.
At Boldera, we work closely with you to uncover your goals, unlock site potential, and navigate zoning, heritage, and sustainability factors early — avoiding costly surprises later.
During this phase, we don’t just plan — we also challenge assumptions.
We test different design directions, explore bold ideas, and take strategic design risks, ensuring that early decisions are thoughtful, future-proof, and aligned with your vision.
This is where your project’s DNA is forged — with clarity, creativity, and the courage to imagine more.

Phase 2
Advanced Design & Documentation
Turning bold ideas into buildable realities.
With the design direction set, we advance your project into technical precision. In this phase, we develop detailed architectural drawings, coordinate structural and mechanical systems, and refine materials, assemblies, and building strategies.
We balance aesthetics with performance — ensuring that every decision serves both design integrity and real-world execution. Our team navigates code compliance, heritage considerations, accessibility standards, and sustainability requirements — so nothing is left to chance.
By the end of this phase, you will have a complete, coordinated documentation package ready for permit approvals, pricing, and construction planning — protecting the integrity of your vision as it moves into the real world.


Phase 3
Building Support & Execution
Protecting your vision from plans to reality.
With your design fully documented, we guide you through the critical next steps — helping you select the right builder and preparing your project for a strong start.
We assist in gathering competitive pricing, reviewing contractor proposals, and ensuring that your chosen team understands and respects the design intent. During construction, we stay actively involved: answering questions, solving challenges, and protecting the integrity of your project through every phase of the build.
At Boldera, we don’t just hand over drawings — we stay by your side until the project is built with the quality, care, and conviction it deserves.

Bringing Bold Ideas to Life — Together.
At Boldera, your vision isn’t just a set of drawings — it’s a mission we share.
From the first sketches to the final built form, we stay by your side, navigating challenges, protecting your investment, and making bold ideas real.
Whether you’re reimagining a historic gem, building a future-ready home, or transforming a forgotten space, we bring the conviction, creativity, and care it takes to deliver lasting results.
