7 Generations
Nonno Felice
The man himself, an original figure. His occupation in 19th-century Italy was known as "muratore," translating to bricklayer.
Nonno Antonio
Following his father's passing, Antonio rekindled his father's passion and established his own construction venture: Macchiavelli. Despite the era's challenges, Nonno Antonio proudly ran his construction company, employing 19 workers who contributed to the development of the town now recognized as Pomigliano D'arco.
Nonna Maria & Nonno Giovanni
Nonna’s insatiable desire, which she fondly refers to as "la pazzeria," for construction started after her settlement in Toronto. Nonno Giovanni, a respected carpenter, together, they embarked on constructing their own homes with their children, a legacy that profoundly impacted their family and gave rise to a lineage of respected developers, consultants and custom home builders.
Our Philosophy
The project is you, the journey begins with us! We're moving away from the traditional model of residential construction and moving towards the 21st century with proper documentation and transparent processes.
We design what you can afford, and guide you to a successful building journey that should be enjoyed. Why are we different? We think differently and sometimes that’s all the difference in the world.
Renato Cancelli, Owner
Construction Project Manager | Estimator
My education began at George Brown College while pursuing Architectural Technology. My professional experience stems from my family lineage in construction. I observed the evolving landscape of the industry, be it residential or commercial and chose to make a shift towards Construction Project Management. It was here that I discovered my passion and received my certificate in Estimating as well. Fusing these three pillars of education coupled with my hands-on experience, I can confidently navigate the processes I have established on the job site and the intricate details behind the scenes. With this in mind, it’s my goal to ensure the highest standards of excellence in every aspect of my work.
