Trevor Keir Design

Trevor did an excellent and thoughtful design for a sympathetic renovation of our 100 yr old house. He listened to our thoughts and ideas, was very responsive to our questions and edits, and communicated everything in an open and efficient manner. He was also very quick in turning around drawings and getting permits, which allowed us to stay on track to start our project. Would highly recommend him to anyone looking to work with an architect.

Trevor was a joy to work with from start to finish. Always accessible, Trevor made time for us to answer any questions and concerns we had. He was easy to build a connection with and we so enjoyed our interactions. He worked quickly and efficiently, and got back to us each time when we wanted to adjust or change something. When we passed on our designs and permits to our contractor, it was a seamless and easy transition. Thank you Trevor for making our house renovation not a scary process, but one that was fun and exciting to work on together. His positive attitude made us excited about what was to come! We would rehire Trevor in a second.

Trevor worked on an extensive renovation of my 1950's home in Rosedale, Toronto. He was a pleasure to work with from the beginning to the end of the project. He was communicative, patient, and detailed in his approach and took the time necessary to achieve an optimal outcome. It was a very smooth process and I highly recommend his services.

The design phase of my project was fascinating and a new experience. With each decision you start to visualize the end result. But getting there is where Trevor’s expertise, research and recommendations were critical........sorting through options, so many choices (too many choices), endless combinations, what goes with what! Trevor saw things I would never have noticed until he mentioned them. Just by moving the location of the fridge my kitchen looks bigger. He knew the hardwood floor stain needed to be 3 shades lighter than the kitchen cabinets. I got to a point where I wanted to confer with Trevor before I made my decisions. When spending funds on a major renovation I did not want to make a potentially regrettable big mistake with my selections and decisions. Trevor made sure I did not. Trevor figured it all out! And my eclectic art collection is beautifully displayed! Trevor kept steering me in the right direction. Apparently, he knew what that direction was better than I did. Sincerely, Susan

Trevor and I have worked together for several years on a variety of interesting projects. As a builder, I appreciate Trevor’s attention to detail and his ability to come up with designs that are aesthetically pleasing and well-laid-out, yet practical and “buildable.” His familiarity with the architecture and construction of older Toronto homes (which comprise the majority of our work) – as well has his familiarity with the ins and outs of the city’s zoning and permitting processes – means I can always rely on him to get the job done. Trevor is also a great communicator; he’s easy to get hold of and is prompt in answering questions. Most of our clients require the services of an architectural designer; others will have already found their own. But I’m always happiest when Trevor is on the job!
