Custom Home Design

View Details →

We design custom homes that are tailored, enduring, and deeply connected to how people live.

Our custom home work begins with understanding the site, the client's priorities, and the long-term vision for the home. From there, we develop designs that balance form, function, and performance.

Custom home services typically include:

  • Site and zoning analysis
  • Conceptual design and massing
  • Floor plans and spatial organization
  • Exterior expression and material strategy
  • Permit-ready drawing sets

Every home is designed specifically for its context, with no pre-made plans or templates.

Residential Additions

View Details →

Well-designed additions feel inevitable, not obvious.

We design residential additions that integrate seamlessly with existing homes while improving flow, natural light, and energy performance. Whether expanding upward or outward, our focus is on proportion, continuity, and livability.


Addition projects may include:

  • Rear and side extensions
  • Second-storey additions
  • Program expansion and reconfiguration
  • Coordination with required consultants

Renovations and Transformations

View Details →

Renovation is an opportunity to refine how a home works.

Our renovation work focuses on rethinking layouts, improving spatial relationships, and enhancing comfort and efficiency. We approach existing homes with care, respecting what works while thoughtfully improving what does not.


Typical renovation projects include:

  • Full-home renovations
  • Interior reconfiguration
  • Kitchen and living space redesign
  • Long-term adaptability and aging-in-place considerations

Sustainable Design Approach

View Details →

Sustainability is embedded in our design process, not applied as an afterthought.

We prioritize practical, performance-driven strategies that improve comfort, efficiency, and durability over the life of the home. Each project considers sustainability through design decisions rather than trends.


Our approach may include:

  • Passive solar orientation and daylighting
  • Energy-efficient layouts and building envelopes
  • Thoughtful material selection
  • Long-term performance and adaptability

Permit-Ready Documentation

View Details →

Clear documentation leads to smoother approvals and better-built homes.

We prepare comprehensive drawing packages suitable for submission to local building departments, developed in accordance with zoning bylaws and applicable building code requirements.

Drawing sets are coordinated to support both approvals and construction clarity.

Design Coordination

View Details →

Residential projects succeed through collaboration.

We work closely with builders, consultants, and specialists involved in the project to ensure design intent is clearly communicated and properly supported throughout the process.

Scope of Services

Blueprint Shack's work focuses on residential design and documentation. Our role is defined clearly at the outset of each project, with services outlined in a written agreement prior to commencement.

Where additional professional services are required, we coordinate with qualified consultants to support the project as needed.
