Crystal Ornex Architecture

Illuminating Spaces Through Crystalline Vision

We're not about sticking to the usual playbook. Every building's got its own story, and honestly, that's what gets us excited in the morning.

Why Crystal-Inspired Design?

Look, we've been in this game long enough to know that light changes everything. A few years back, I was standing in this old Vancouver warehouse at sunset - the way the light bounced off the existing glass panels literally made me rethink a project I'd been struggling with for weeks.

Crystals aren't just pretty to look at. They're about angles, refraction, how natural elements can transform a space from "meh" to memorable. That's what we bring to residential and commercial projects across BC.

Less cookie-cutter, more "let's figure out what actually works for how you live."

What We Actually Do

Residential design

Residential Architecture Design

Your home shouldn't feel like everyone else's. We spend time figuring out how you actually use space, then design around that.

Commercial planning

Commercial Building Planning

From office spaces to retail, we've learned that functionality beats fancy every time. But hey, sometimes you can have both.

Interior optimization

Interior Space Optimization

Got a weird corner? Awkward layout? That's where it gets interesting. We're kinda nerdy about making "problem areas" into highlights.

3D visualization

3D Architectural Visualization

Floor plans are great and all, but seeing your project before it's built? That's when clients really get it. And it saves headaches down the road.

Sustainable consultation

Sustainable Building Consultation

Real talk - sustainable design isn't just trendy, it's practical. Lower bills, better air quality, and yeah, it's the right thing to do.

Heritage restoration

Heritage Building Restoration

There's something special about breathing new life into old structures. Balancing history with modern needs? That's our jam.

Let's Talk About Your Project

Whether you've got detailed plans or just a rough idea scribbled on a napkin, we're here to chat. Coffee's on us (literally - our office is right by some great Vancouver coffee spots).

Based in Vancouver, but we've worked on projects throughout BC. Distance isn't usually a problem.

Real Projects, Real People

We've been fortunate to work with some amazing clients over the years. Here's what that looks like:

"We came to Crystal Ornex with a tight budget and a weird lot. They didn't try to upsell us on fancy stuff we didn't need. Instead, they got creative with angles and natural light. Our home feels twice as big as it actually is."

— Sarah & Mike, West Vancouver Residence

"The 3D visualization was a game-changer. We could walk through our commercial space before breaking ground. Made decision-making so much easier, and we avoided some costly mistakes."

— James T., Commercial Client
