Linear is a buildable narrow-home concept developed from years of small-footprint residential experience in Vancouver.

The design uses a narrow envelope, strong exterior form, warm interiors, and efficient circulation to make compact living feel deliberate rather than compromised. It is a house type for tight urban lots, laneway conditions, or sites where width is limited but quality of space still matters.
