A SEPARATE SPACE THAT STILL BELONGS

Two Smart Ways to Add Living Space.

A garden or laneway suite is more than extra square footage. It is a separate living environment that should feel intentional, comfortable and connected to the character of the property. We approach each project as a complete home in miniature, balancing efficient planning with the details that make a space feel exceptional.

The right solution depends on your property, access, intended use and the relationship between the new suite and the main home.

GARDEN SUITES

Laneway Suites

A secondary residence positioned along a laneway, creating a distinct street relationship and an opportunity to transform underused rear-lot space.

Guest & Family Living

Create comfortable independent space for family members, guests or changing household needs while maintaining privacy for both residences.

Flexible Long-Term Space

Plan a suite that can adapt over time as a home office, guest residence, independent family space or other permitted residential use.

Small Footprint. Thoughtful Architecture.

Compact buildings demand careful design. Proportion, roof form, exterior materials, windows, entrances, landscaping and the relationship to the main house all influence whether the new suite feels considered rather than crowded onto the lot.

Designed From the Inside Out.

Every square foot matters. We plan kitchens, living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, storage and circulation to make the suite feel open and comfortable without wasting space.

Comfortable Living

Efficient layouts give everyday functions enough room while keeping the overall footprint purposeful.

Privacy & Access

Thoughtful entrances, window placement and orientation help create separation between the suite and the main residence.

LIGHT & CONNECTION

A Complete Build, Carefully Coordinated.

Windows, glazing and outdoor relationships are considered carefully to bring natural light into a compact footprint while respecting surrounding properties.

Secondary suites involve many interconnected decisions. Quint coordinates the project from early planning through construction so architecture, interiors, building systems and site work come together as one finished result.

BUILT FOR HOW YOU LIVE

More Space Should Mean Better Space.

Toronto properties vary significantly in lot dimensions, laneway conditions, access and surrounding context. A successful suite needs to respond to the individual site. Quint approaches each project with careful planning rather than a one-size-fits-all design.
