About Us
We are Design 53
Competing with other companies requires you to have an edge. If you are a small company, resources like a third-party drafting company becomes an invaluable tool. Time management is crucial and your schedule is tight, why struggle with establishing an in-house design and drafting department when we can do that for you.
Having third party design and drafting services working with you gives your company a more robust and professional look to potential clients. We produce value-engineered construction working drawings that meet the Alberta Building Code and Local Land-Use Bylaws.
At Design 53 Consulting Inc., we pride ourselves in supporting our Clients all throughout the Permitting and Construction process right until the keys are turned over. If there are any questions or revisions needed from your Team, Trades and/or Plans Examiners we are available to assist quickly with no additional fees. We are also willing to visit the site to meet with Trades for any complicated questions or concerns.

Kyley Loyer – Senior Creative Designer
Kyley graduated from the Architectural Technology program at NAIT in 2002 and began as a Production Draftsperson with a large home builder.
