Fabrication Studio is a new architecture practice based in Toronto that is focused on Garden Suites and Laneway Suites. Our goal is to provide beautiful housing at a compact scale to improve yards, lanes and neighborhoods while also densifying the city. We also want the design process to be as accessible and as straightforward as possible.

We are now accepting new projects for spring/summer 2026.

Blue House Prototype - ADU

Location: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Architect: François Abbott
Size: 60 m²

DESCRIPTION

This is a prototype – the first garden suite designed by Fabrication Studio for a friend. The idea was to show people that a very small house could still be something beautiful and worthwhile. When garden suites were legalized in Toronto (2022) many had skepticism about the kinds of projects that would arise. This was understandable – many developers had been making small condominiums designed to produce high turnover (much like the uncomfortable furniture in a fast food restaurant that forces people to leave after 20 minutes). Here, we tried to show that within a 600 square foot footprint, you could make something beautiful worth living in.
