Craig Race, Architect

Craig and I have worked together on many projects. I first hired him in 2012 to work with me on the design of my family’s laneway house in Toronto’s Leslieville neighbourhood. We rebuilt an existing, illegally converted garage apartment, including adding a second floor addition to the structure. Throughout this process, Craig was very professional and patient and his ideas and insight proved valuable in navigating the design and approval process, which was challenging to say the least.

Since completing my first house with Craig, I have hired him for my family’s next house. He has been great to work with, and I strongly recommend reaching out to him if you are planning on undertaking a substantial renovation or building a custom home.

We hired Craig in early 2017 to design and oversee our main floor bungalow renovation. Craig helped us find and evaluate contractors for our project, and was very creative in helping us make our vision a reality. We made the mistake of increasing the scope of our reno mid-way through the project, but Craig was adaptable and able to accommodate our changes. We would highly recommend Craig.
