鈥楢s a designer, it really boils down to having the personality of your client shine through鈥, says award-winning designer, and former carpenter, Madeleine Sloback. 鈥業 tell clients to interview their builders based on their personality, as opposed to what they see on paper, because it is a very personal relationship that you鈥檙e creating over the course of many years鈥.

On this episode, Co-hosts Mike and Jennifer-Lee share with listeners the history of the award-winning Kitsilano Heritage Home.

Almost all these houses at some point get wet, but they鈥檙e able to dry鈥, explains John Quinton. 鈥楢nd you have to be cognizant of that when you鈥檙e upgrading these homes. For our new construction, we are very aggressive with our air sealing and use entirely exterior insulated wall assemblies. But when you鈥檙e working with an existing home, you have to be careful about how you apply some of those technologies鈥.
