Christina Marinos Designs

Christina Marinos Designs An architectural studio founded in 2019 with a vision to help you build your dream house affordably. We’re Toronto’s most passionate residential designers.

Our founder Christina, an Architectural Technology graduate and Technologist with the OAA (Ontario Association of Architects), saw a gap in what homeowners in Toronto wanted and what they were getting. Our mission is to fill this gap with budget-conscious designs and a personal homeowner-designer connection. Our services are tailored to the specific needs of each project — we ensure the process is

smooth from sketch and 3D render, all the way to permit acquisition and building. We’ve worked on many projects in Toronto and the GTA, including Residential Architectural Design Services, Photorealistic 3D Rendering Services, and Site Planning and Approval. Let’s talk about your dream home. Contact us to get a FREE cost estimate. 🏡

Build the bathroom of your dreams and you'll never have to visit the spa again✨

Designing your bathroom to feel like a luxury spa involves a combination of aesthetic choices, high-quality materials, and thoughtful details.

Here are some of my key tips to achieve a spa-like retreat at home:

〰️ Choose a calming colour palette.
〰️Install high-quality fixtures.
〰️Invest in a freestanding bathtub.
〰️Upgrade your lighting.
〰️ Incorporate natural elements.
〰️ Install heated flooring for added comfort.
〰️Invest in luxurious textiles.

By combining these elements, you can create a bathroom that feels like a high-end spa retreat, offering a relaxing escape right in your home.

From vintage to vibrant- these structures are getting a glow-up!

Ever heard the term "adaptive reuse"? It’s a sustainable design approach that breathes new life into old buildings by repurposing them for modern use.

This innovative strategy significantly reduces waste and the need for new materials, making it a cornerstone of eco-friendly architecture. By transforming existing structures, adaptive reuse helps preserve the unique character and heritage of buildings, creating a beautiful blend of the old and the new.

In addition to its environmental benefits, adaptive reuse is often more economical than new construction, as it utilizes existing frameworks and materials. This cost-effective approach can be a smart financial decision, saving on both construction costs and the resources needed for building from scratch. Moreover, adaptive reuse plays a crucial role in urban revitalization, turning underused or abandoned spaces into vibrant, functional areas that rejuvenate communities and cities.

Adaptive reuse is all about innovation and sustainability, making it the future of thoughtful, impactful design.

If you've got your eye on something that has good bones but needs a modern reno- I'd love to help you with the design. Let's chat!

Just dreaming up new layout ideas for future clients (can't forget about my own house, too 😍).

If you could splurge on one OUTRAGEOUS feature in your home (I'm talking something so bougie you know you don't NEED it, but you want it nonetheless), what would it be?

I am a huge fan of all the doggo-related built-in options. Things like a food and water dish within the kitchen island, an easy-access bath spot in the laundry room, and cute crates incorporated into your built-ins.

None of these are necessary by any means, but as a dog mom, I find them an awesome way to make your pet feel like fam.

Thinking about adding multiple entryways to your home’s rear exterior?

Here’s why it’s a great idea:

1️⃣ Enhanced accessibility.
Multiple entryways provide easy access to different parts of the house, making it convenient for both everyday use and special occasions.

2️⃣ Improved traffic flow.
With more entry points, you can better manage the flow of people, especially during gatherings and events.

3️⃣ Increased privacy.
Separate entryways for different areas, like a home office or guest suite, offer added privacy for family members and visitors.

4️⃣ Outdoor connection.
Multiple doors create seamless connections to your backyard, patio, or garden, encouraging more outdoor living and enjoyment.

5️⃣ Emergency preparedness.
Additional exits enhance safety by providing multiple escape routes in case of an emergency.

Designing your home is about more than aesthetics, it is a perfect balance between functionality, longevity, and design- all with your lifestyle and goals in mind.

From storage space to main floor flow- and even number of entryways, we've got your back. Let's chat! Visit the link to set up a call.
