See you at the Fall Vancouver Home Show 2019.

I just wanted to tell you how wonderful it is to be in the space that you designed and Alec built. There are many details yet to finish but it is simply amazing to stand at the centre of the nearly finished room and consider how it interacts with the exterior surroundings. Your vision is translating into an incredible reality.

I just wanted to say that I stopped by tonight to see the house and the posts and curved beams. I walked around inside and sat outside on the terrace. The feeling of the structure and its relationship to the big stones, bedrock and stepping stones set within the curve felt perfect to me -- strong and spacious. The warm evening light on the light blond Fir posts made them positively glow like lanterns - I felt like I was standing in a temple. :-)
It is truly lovely.

James won us over immediately with his relaxed, attentive approach, and his excellent understanding of what is truly important to people who value their natural environment. I can't thank James enough for giving us this beautiful space that we could never have imagined on our own.

James, wanted to let you know that we have received a lot of comments on our cabin from people on the lake. They all say that we built the most beautiful cabin, absolutely love it.

Since completion of the “makeover”, James Tuer’s work at our home has received much Praise from neighbours and from many passerby. Among other compliments, our home has been called “beautiful, “calming” and “an oasis of quiet”. Remarkably, the new garden, stairs, trees, grasses, flowers and walls have led to a major increase in the bee and hummingbird populations! Thank you James

Question 1
What is your style of architecture?
Answer
If you glance through our photo library you will find lots of different style homes.  I like to say it takes great clients to build great projects and I approach every project by allowing my clients do the talking and the architect do the listening.  What I bring to the table is a sensibility towards creating beautifully proportioned and crafted projects regardless if they are more on the modern side or craftsman side. 

Question 2
Do you get involved in the construction project?   

Answer
Yes I do depending on client needs.  Our drawing sets are highly detailed so if a project is in a remote site it can run itself, but I love to be involved in all aspects of the project.  Often opportunities will arise during the construction and I'm always thinking with my design cap on when on site. I've built a few homes for myself and know what it's like to wear a tool belt.  I love interacting with trades and here is what a recent client said in a review on Houzz "....moreover, James knows a lot about construction and stayed on top of our project from start to finish. He established excellent working relations with our contractor, his employees and the many subcontractors who worked on our project." 

Question 3
Can you recommend a builder?

Answer
Yes, JWT is an established firm with a wide network of contacts. With built projects throughout the Sea to Sky Corridor, the Lower Mainland and the Sunshine Coast we have a core group of contractors and subtrades we like to recommend.  We are also welcoming of clients who bring on board their own builder.
