Comprehensive architectural services from feasibility and planning to permitting, construction, and project completion. Serving communities throughout British Columbia and the Yukon

What We Offer

From concept development to detailed design, we provide architectural solutions tailored to the unique needs of each project. Our services include site analysis, schematic design, design development, and coordination with consultants to create thoughtful and buildable designs.
We work on a wide range of project types, including residential, commercial, mixed-use, industrial, and institutional developments. Our experience includes both Part 9 and Part 3 buildings across British Columbia.
Successful projects begin with informed decisions. We assist clients in evaluating development opportunities through zoning reviews, site analysis, density assessments, development potential studies, and preliminary planning strategies.
Our feasibility studies help clients understand project constraints, opportunities, timelines, and approval requirements before committing significant resources to a project.
Navigating municipal approval processes can be complex. We prepare and coordinate Development Permit, Building Permit, Rezoning, Board of Variance, and related municipal applications on behalf of our clients.
Our team works closely with municipalities throughout British Columbia to facilitate approvals and help move projects efficiently through the review process.
We provide professional consulting services throughout all stages of project development. From early project planning and due diligence to consultant coordination and regulatory reviews, we help clients make informed decisions and manage project risks.
Our collaborative approach ensures alignment between owners, consultants, contractors, and authorities having jurisdiction.
Our involvement continues beyond permitting and design. During construction, we provide site reviews, contractor coordination, review of shop drawings, responses to RFIs, and ongoing support to help ensure the project is constructed in accordance with the design intent.
Through regular communication and oversight, we assist clients in maintaining quality, resolving issues efficiently, and achieving successful project outcomes.
EMcan provides compliance and occupancy consulting services for existing residential and commercial buildings. We assist clients with building code compliance assessments, occupancy-related reviews, evaluation of unpermitted work, permit and documentation investigations, consultant coordination, and municipal review processes. Through technical assessments, due diligence, and ongoing coordination with municipalities and regulatory authorities, we help clients identify requirements, address compliance-related matters, and navigate the approval process with a clear and practical strategy tailored to their project.
