Potts Design & Co. is a full-service residential design firm located in Squamish, BC and central Vancouver Island. Since 2006, we have been designing thoughtfully considered homes for families and individuals across the country. With a focus exclusively on residential design, PDCo. designs a variety of project types- from carriage homes to cabins, new homes to renovations.
Our attention to detail, our passion for great design, and our commitment to creating an incredible client experience is what sets our home designs apart. The vision and needs of our clients are the foundation for every design, shaping our custom homes where form and function dovetail beautifully.
We are committed to building lasting, positive relationships while creating warm, inviting and laid-back luxury home plans that maximize our client’s investment or time and money. Through the experience of working together, our clients often become our friends and continue to live in their home decades later or enlist in our design expertise as their lives evolve.
Your home is the largest investment you will make, in both time and money.
Let’s design you a home that is worthy of both. You might never want to leave.
Meet Chelsey
Designer and Creative Director
I started this company in 2006 because I knew at a very young age, visiting my fathers construction sites, that I wanted to design beautiful, creative, and inspiring homes just like the ones I toured all those years ago. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working with hundreds of clients both locally and nationally, and not just once, but multiple times.
Clients everywhere receive a high level of personal attention, quick completions, and the opportunity to participate fully in the evolution of their home. Projects have varied in size from tiny cabins of 500 square feet to 5,000+ and single family homes to multi-family homes and subdivisions.
Regardless of the scale or type of project, the focus remains on the client - their needs, budget and lifestyle - and on integrating their home into their surroundings with passive solutions and step code compliance. I love working with motivated and trusting clients to design them a home that reflects their personality and vision.
Say good-bye to complicated…
Hello to a simplified process
I believe there can be an easier and stressless way to get your home designed and built. And it isn’t convoluted with terminology like Schematics, Design Development, PCCE and CD. Every home is designed thoughtfully and intentionally, but we don’t waste time where it’s not needed, focusing on understanding your project well and designing specifically what you need for your permit.
My hands draw every drawing, I attend every meeting and send every email. Being directly involved in every aspect of the project is important to me as I feel every nuance contributes to its quality and cohesiveness. The key is working closely with the homeowners and collaborating between other skilled professionals - structural engineers, general contractors/project managers, interior designers, and more.
A simplified process, continuous education and thoughtful design shape every detail that goes into a PDCo. home. Whether you're choosing a pre-designed plan or the flexibility of custom design, these add up to an experience that is anything but traditional.
