Who we are

A Cooperative Vision for Atlantic Canada

The Mission

MID Studio is currently a sole proprietorship with a clear path toward becoming a cooperative.

The Goal

We want to integrate the diverse skills required to design and manage the construction of multi-unit residential and commercial buildings specifically for the Atlantic Canada region.

The Team

We assemble collaborative teams, complete with specialized consultants, specifically tailored to your unique project.

What We Do

High-Tech Efficiency & Low-Tech Sustainability

Cutting-Edge Technology

We use advanced BIM (Building Information Modelling) tools like AutoDesk Revit to streamline communication and catch design errors early; we use Asana to improve overall productivity and meet our deadlines; we also explore the best use cases for newly released AI tools.

Grounded Low-Tech Solutions

We prioritize long-term comfort and sustainability through locally sourced, high-quality materials and construction methods, passive design principles, and collaboration with local experts.

Why We Are Different

Quality of Living Over ROI

We focus on creating desirable homes to address the housing crisis, prioritizing human interaction and quality of living over simple "return-per-square-foot" metrics.

Our buildings are designed to increase living space without increasing costs by sharing resources such as laundry facilities, shops, and multipurpose community rooms with kitchens—all while maintaining individual privacy.

We incorporate unique community elements into our projects to support the fundamental design concept. From a specialized gym with a climbing wall or a dojo space, to shared garden spaces or a greenhouse, to foster local connection.

The Way We Work

Transparency & Commitment

Project Coordination

We act as a partner to landowners and investors, managing the entire lifecycle of a project—from coordinating architects and engineers to on-site contractor supervision.

Cost Efficiency

By acting as both PM and GC, we eliminate traditional markups. Our method typically reduces the average project management and design cost by 30% (depending on project-specificities).

Core Values

Transparency is at the heart of everything we do. We face issues and offer solution. We care for quality and long-term vision for your investment.
