ENVHA is intended as a low barrier planning and design service, providing proper value assessment and discovery of your project path without conflict of interest. We provide real listening and professional uptake of your needs and aspirations based on you the client. How can we do this? One word: Experience.
ENVHA uses a proprietary approach that we have developed from long experience. We prototyped it, and we continue to evolve it. We serve clients who feel that they should plan changes to their environment at the very start to maximize opportunities and minimize costly errors. Our planning approach respects two essential components. Our inner human nature and the outer worldly nature. Our inner nature drives that change. ENVHA is orientated toward making our environments in the world fit us properly, striving for balance and for evolution of our inner nature, which is part of nature.
ENVHA is located mid–Vancouver Island. We are in the Mount Arrowsmith Biosphere Region (MABR) where we take our unity with the biosphere seriously. We serve the areas around the Salish Sea, Vancouver and the GVRD, and we may extend through the mainland of British Columbia and beyond. Our service for the Dwelling Betterment Report usually requires that we meet. Travel costs are additional beyond mid–Vancouver Island and we negotiate expenses beyond that.
