Cross-disciplinary experience for multifamily development projects.
With an Architecture forward approach, EVstudio enhances your project through design-engineering that is uniquely collaborative and effective. As a full-service architecture and engineering firm, we apply cross-disciplinary expertise to manage every facet of your multifamily project—large or small, new construction, modular, or remodel. Our experience includes mixed-use developments, condos, and apartments. We also provide design services for lower density townhome and duplex projects.
Expertise
To provide 360-degree expertise for your walk-up, podium, or wrap multifamily project, our architects and civil engineers work together on planning and site feasibility. These teams then sync their efforts with our structural engineers and MEP engineers to provide optimized solutions that consider every aspect of your build.

The Lookout on Cragmor
The Lookout on Cragmor
The University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) required additional housing to support their ever-growing student population that wanted to live on or close to campus. The Lookout on Cragmor is a 5-story apartment building featuring 71 units that feature one to four-bedroom units. At lower than average construction costs, The Lookout was a positive solution that allowed UCCS to house students while being as close to campus as possible. Each student has individual access to their bedroom with a shared living room and kitchen areas. This particular student housing building also provides office space and a fitness center for student residents. Using EVstudio’s in-house multiple disciplines allowed the client to stay on budget while also providing high-design solutions attractive to today’s students.
The design of this student housing project is both modern and keeps in mind the safety of the students living in the building. Energy efficiency is a high priority for the University, so components such as high-efficiency lighting systems, hydronic heating, and building overhangs to provide solar shading were put in place in the design phase. Each unit was also given its own meter so it can be separately metered and served from a meter bank located on that floor.

Aria Condominiums
Aria Condominiums
Aria condominiums are located in the heart of Saskatoon’s upscale neighborhood, Evergreen. A 66 unit podium project with heated underground parkade, the modern design aesthetic situated among Saskatchewan’s otherwise arguably sleepy architecture has wholly captivated the residents, the community and even the local politicians. Serving as the new aesthetic model to achieve for multifamily design, other developers in the area quickly clamored to emulate the floor-ceiling windows, the backlit glass railings and accents, and the floating cantilevered rooflines on their subsequent projects with high success.
These luxury condominiums help remedy a housing shortage for the local flourishing oil and gas community. The buildings offer one and two-bedroom units ranging from 700 to 1,200 sq.ft., generous amenity space including yoga studios, and game rooms. Aria is such a masterpiece in design it sold out in record time while other developments sat on the market for months.
