Every step of your project, in one studio.
Building designs, technical drawings, interior design, and contractor coordination.
What we offer
Building designs, technical drawings, interior design, and contractor coordination. One studio, start to finish.
One studio, one point of contact, and a building documented to be built well.
Building design
Cottages, homes, boathouses, garages and outbuildings.
We design with consideration for land topography, water drainage and solar orientation. Our approach emphasizes Canadian Shield-rooted building design suited to the regional climate, with precise construction documentation so the building is built exactly as designed.
Interior design
Developed alongside the building design, not after it.
Materials, millwork, furniture and lighting are resolved together from the earliest stages, so the interior reads as a natural extension of the building. We work with Hilltop Interiors to bring clients a fully integrated design experience.
What we design
Cottages
Site-led design for Muskoka and beyond.
Homes
Designed around lifestyle and landscape.
Boathouses
Marine structures working with shorelines.
Garages
Complementary detached structures, designed to sit with your cottage or home, not compete with it.
Outbuildings
Bunkie cabins, workshops and utility structures that round out the property.
Our approach: Light, Experience, Structure, Sustainability
Light
Solar movement analysis comes before wall placement. Every project starts with how sunlight moves through your site, morning, midday and evening.
Experience
Existing views and moments are identified first. Your property has views that can only be framed, not designed from scratch.
Structure
Buildings designed for 50-year lifespans, with durable materials and detailing that age well.
Sustainability
Energy efficiency, better insulation and durable systems, integrated from the first design decisions.
Why CPD
We work as a single integrated studio, not a handoff between building designer and interior designer.
That minimizes coordination gaps, keeps budgets tighter, and keeps the design cohesive from site line to interior detail.
