Elsa was a life-saver for me!! I purchased a home that was in desperate need of a facelift but wasn't sure what I could do, what I wanted or where to start. She met with me to see the space but also asked lots of questions to see how I wanted to use it best. She was always available for questions, her design concepts blew my mind and she ensured such a smooth bid process for my contractor. I don't intend on moving ever again - but would recommend Elsa to anyone in a heartbeat!
I would absolutely recommend Aware Design Studio to anyone who is looking for an architectural design firm that engages on a personal level to truly understand how you want your space to serve your family. As a designer, Elsa approaches every project with a natural curiosity and an awareness that is both refreshing and engaging. Having worked alongside Elsa for 3 years in our award-winning design/build firm, I was always impressed with how quickly clients became completely comfortable with her approach and developed a deep trust in her ability. Aware Design Studio is the new kid on the block. They collaborate, partner, engage, communicate, learn, teach and produce fantastically personal designs that serve families and communities well. Do yourself a favour and give them a call.

Do you have questions?
An architectural designer creates the overall layout, flow, and feel of a space—making sure it functions well, looks beautiful, and meets all code and building requirements. We translate ideas into clear plans that builders and trades can follow with confidence.
A good designer ensures that the space not only meets technical needs, but also supports how you live day to day. We plan for flow, proportion, light, and comfort—details that are often overlooked when design isn’t part of the process from the start.
Sustainable design focuses on creating spaces that are energy-efficient, environmentally responsible, and built to last. Net Zero homes go a step further: they are designed to produce as much energy as they consume over the course of a year, through strategies like better insulation, high-performance windows, energy-efficient systems, and renewable energy sources like solar panels.
Yes—we’re happy to work remotely when appropriate, especially for planning, conceptual design, and consultation.
Timelines vary depending on the complexity and scope of your project. After our discovery meeting, we’ll provide a clear estimate as part of your proposal.
Sustainable choices sometimes have higher upfront costs, but they often lead to lower operating costs over time through reduced energy use and maintenance. We help find a balance that fits your goals, budget, and long-term plans.
