The best house is often the one you already own. SuDu Studio designs renovations and additions across Edmonton and Alberta that rework existing homes with the same discipline as a new build.
Renovation rewards judgment: knowing what to keep, what to remove, and where a small structural move unlocks a whole floor. We start by understanding the existing building, its structure, and its bylaw envelope, so the design pushes exactly as far as the site allows and no further than the budget should.
Second-storey additions, rear extensions, garage and laneway suites, and full interior reconfigurations. We handle development and building permits, heritage-sensitive work, and the documentation builders need to price accurately. Interiors are resolved together with the architecture, so the new and the old read as one house.
Renovations carry more unknowns than new construction. Drawings that anticipate those unknowns, and a designer who has walked the building, are the difference between a contingency and a crisis.
