Did cooking for Thanksgiving get you dreaming of a new kitchen?

Colour is one of the easiest ways to transform a space. It shapes how we feel and how we experience the rooms we live in. Adding real value to a design, colour is expressive, brings personality and can turn a room from simply functional into something memorable…even dreamy.

A full kitchen renovation can do the same. A kitchen that reflects the people who use it can extend an invitation into culinary creativity and add a fresh vibrancy to a space used every day.

Fall is the perfect time to transform your hardworking kitchen into a sanctuary where cooking feels calm and fluid. Think: the kitchen of your culinary dreams.

The leaves are turning, the furnace is kicking back on and the market is shifting with the season. Along with the weather, Edmonton's resale market is cooling and conditions so far are trending in favour of buyers. That means standing out matters.

If you're putting your home on the market, is it really ready to sell?

Renovations and upgrades now are what separate a listing that moves from one that sits. And it isn't all about aesthetics: upgraded insulation, windows and building envelope repairs protect your home from the elements and keep it comfortable through the cold months. Whole-room renovations breathe new life into old spaces built for comfort and relaxation. Whatever the project, it all adds value to your home.

This is the time to get ahead of it. We're here to help repair and revive your space so it performs as well as it looks. And even if selling isn't on the horizon, you deserve to enjoy the space you call home.

Let's talk about what your home needs before the weather really turns.

Edmonton, you're looking good out there!

Festival season is hard to beat 👌 Edmonton Folk Music Festival wrapped last week, Edmonton Fringe Theatre kicks off Friday... and let's not forget about the Art Walks happening around the city too.

Take advantage of the drier, sunnier weather and get out there.

Where are you headed?

Moisture problems are rarely what they look like. What is usually visual are symptoms which is why moisture issues get misdiagnosed so often and why the fix sometimes fails. It only addresses the symptom, not the source.

Your house is a complex, interconnected ecosystem. Finding the real cause takes more than a look at the surface. It takes an understanding of how the building performs as a whole, as a 𝒔𝒚𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒎. Our process ensures we identify the root cause offering evidence-based solutions based on ASTM testing standards, our building science knowledge and years of field experience.

Once the 𝒘𝒉𝒚 is established, our in-house Building Envelope Technicians can execute the 𝒉𝒐𝒘, delivering lasting protection informed directly by the insights from our assessments.

If you're seeing signs of moisture in your home, the first step isn't a patch. It's a proper diagnosis.

Let us investigate.

"Design can be a powerful tool for good." — Mariam Kamara

A visit to the Art Gallery of Alberta is always good for the soul. And right now, two rooms specifically are a good reminder of why we do what we do.

In 'Plans and Prototypes' (pictured here), kids can sketch, build, and test their own designs and models: learning that design is the critical first step in the building process. In 'Wallflower', the exhibit turns inward: exploring the spaces wallpaper envelops and how the parts of a room we stop noticing are often doing the most work. Two rooms. Both making the case for good design in different ways.

Design isn't just how a space looks. It's how it performs. That's the idea behind everything we do at Archive, whether we're inside or out. That's what drives the work we do.

Good design isn't decoration. It's a tool. We just happen to build with it.

Add the AGA to your summer list. Both exhibits are on now.

The weather's done a pretty good job lately of reminding us that some projects run on their own schedule. The planning doesn't have to.

It's Father's Day on Sunday (again, you're welcome) and we celebrate every person who holds that role. Forget the tie. Give Dad something better than a gift: one less thing on the to-do list.

A good father figure and a well-built home have more in common than you'd think:
🔨 Quiet strength.
🔨 Work that holds up over time.
🔨 A protective structure between the world outside and everything that matters inside.
Every one deserves a space that holds up the same way.

What's on your to-do list? Drop it in the comments👇

Anyone doing a backyard project this weekend?

What happens outside connects to what's happening inside. A well-built backyard isn't just beautiful, it protects your home.

Here's to clear skies and smooth ex*****on. What are you working on? 👇

Edmonton, we see you. With localized rainfall totals well above Alberta’s typical June average, this week has pushed our roads and properties to the limit.

Water intrusion isn't just an inconvenience…it's a building science problem. Your home's building envelope either handles it, or it doesn't. The rain has tapered off, but now is the critical time to check your basement foundation walls, lot grading and window and exterior door perimeters for moisture. If your building envelope is compromised, water will find a way in.

If you're seeing water where you shouldn't be, don't wait. Moisture problems compound quickly. 💧

We're here if you have questions. ♥
