A Clearer, More Intentional Way to Design Your Home or Cottage.
Creating a home or cottage involves thousands of decisions – many of them interconnected, time-sensitive, and deeply personal. Our role is to bring clarity to that process. At Birchview Design, we guide every layer of your project with intention: the way your home functions, the way it feels, the materials selected, the details documented, and the experience of bringing it all together for you to enjoy.
Whether you are building from the ground up or transforming an existing space, our integrated approach ensures your project is beautifully designed, carefully planned, and thoughtfully executed.
TWO DISTINCT SERVICES, ONE THOUGHTFUL APPROACH
Our work is delivered through two primary service experiences, each tailored to the needs of your project.
Custom Homes & Cottages
Our Integrated Approach to Custom Home & Cottage Design, in collaboration with a builder partner
Designing a custom home or cottage is a unique opportunity to create something deeply personal – a space shaped entirely around your lifestyle, your land, and the legacy you’re building.
As your dedicated stewards throughout the process, Birchview Design collaborates closely with a trusted network of builders and trades – or works alongside your preferred builder – to bring your vision to life from the ground up. Every decision is made with intention, ensuring the architectural direction, materials, and finishes align seamlessly with both your aesthetic and your investment priorities.
Through this approach, we create homes that feel considered and cohesive – where beauty and function exist in perfect balance.
To complete your space, we thoughtfully furnish and style each room with a curated selection of bespoke pieces, while seamlessly incorporating any existing items you wish to carry forward. From foundational elements to the finishing touches, we manage every detail – down to sourcing linens, tableware, and the pieces that make a house feel like home.
Our Collaborative Custom Build Services Include:
- Permits + Planning (Site, Septic, Conservation, Committee of Adjustment, etc.)
- Architectural Drawings
- Spatial + Mechanical Planning
- Technical Construction Drawings
- 3D Renderings + Visualization

FULL-SERVICE RENOVATIONS
A comprehensive renovation experience led by our team and trusted tradespeople
A well-executed renovation requires more than beautiful design. It requires planning, coordination, procurement, communication, and careful management of countless moving parts.
As your project management team, Birchview Design leads the process from concept through to completion. We guide every stage – from permits and the development of architectural and aesthetic design, to detailed documentation, trade coordination, procurement, and timeline oversight – bringing each element together with intention and care.
If you have a preferred contractor, we collaborate closely with them – providing clear, comprehensive design documentation to ensure the project is executed efficiently and as intended. Throughout the implementation phase, our involvement is tailored to your needs, and we remain available as much or as little as required to support a seamless renovation.
With construction complete, we oversee the final installation of furnishings, art, and decor – thoughtfully layering each element to create a cohesive and considered home.
Our Turn-Key Renovation Design Services Include:
- Permits + Planning (Site, Septic, Conservation, Committee of Adjustment, etc.)
- Architectural Drawings
