Toronto Laneway Housing Project
We’re Lanescape
We wrote the book on laneway housing in Toronto. Our team is dedicated to designing and building innovative laneway suites efficiently and affordably.
What are laneway suites?
Laneway suites are secondary dwellings constructed behind traditional street-facing homes on lots abutting a public laneway. They increase housing flexibility, animate underutilized space, and provide housing options close to community amenities. Laneway suites provide housing for loved ones, generate income, and create live-work opportunities. The possibilities are endless.

What are garden suites?
COMING SOON TO TORONTO!
Garden suites are detached secondary dwellings located in the rear yard of a principal residence. They are intended to be a modest-scale separate housing unit that integrates sensitively within existing neighbourhoods. Garden suites would effectively extend the current permissions for laneway suites to residential properties that do not benefit from frontage on a public laneway and fulfill provincial housing policy that requires improved housing flexibility for homeowners and families.
How we work
Our approach to design and construction is founded on critical analysis, technical comprehension and an enthusiasm for challenging the status quo. We work with you every step of the way, from the day the pencil hits the paper, to the night of your housewarming party.
