Our Difference

The foundation of great architecture is in its three tenants:
beauty, durability and functionality.

what we do

Listening

Getting to know you is our priority – we believe this lays a great foundation to a successful project. When you choose Lakeside, you have direct access to the principal of our firm, ensuring efficient and effective communication with the person most invested in your project’s success.

Creating

Creating one-of-a-kind places for the way you want to live. We know a great design will transform the way you live. Lakeside embraces the three tenets of architecture: beauty, durability and functionality. A good design also takes inspiration from the site, including sources like water, rock and forest, creating a personal oasis that makes an effortless transition between indoors and out.

Guiding

We take pride in working on our projects from concept to creation, beginning with an initial design based on your vision and our site assessment right through permits, material selection, and the final build.

Our belief and experience is the true mastery of architecture emerges when the architect’s mind and hands meet. Lakeside Architecture has carpentry, framing, joinery, and building experience.

Our principal architect, James Pitropov graduated from the University of Toronto School of Architecture in 1995 as its top student. He was awarded the Gold Medal in Architecture and nominated for the School’s Governor General Silver Medal. The Royal Architecture Institute of Canada named him the student most likely to be an Architect of Distinction.
