OG Toronto
The OG Toronto studio was founded in 2016 and has since become a vibrant and creative presence in Canada’s largest city. Located in Toronto’s west end in the neighbourhood of Parkdale, it is deeply immersed and connected to a community known for its eclectic character and strong artistic presence. The studio’s home in the Radiator Complex—an adaptive reuse development owned by Hullmark Properties—thrives off the complex’s energy of creators, innovators, and young professionals. From this modest yet dynamic setting, the studio has gained recognition for its diverse and thoughtful portfolio.
The studio’s work spans a wide range of project types and sites. It has contributed significantly to the design of innovative restaurants throughout the city, as well as urban and rural single-family residential projects that prioritize both aesthetics and livability. Beyond smaller-scale commissions, the studio has also engaged in larger-scale developments, bringing a consistent focus on context, sustainability, and design integrity to every project.
At the heart of the studio’s success is its founder and Partner, Stephanie Hosein. Under her leadership, the studio has not only built a reputation for design excellence but has also become a platform for professional mentorship and industry advocacy. Stephanie has been a key voice in promoting equity and representation in the built environment through her involvement in BEAT (Building Equality Architecture Toronto), helping to foster a more inclusive profession.
The studio operates out of a compact, brick-lined industrial space that typically accommodates a team of four to six people. This close-knit environment fosters collaboration, creativity, and a strong sense of purpose. Despite its small size, the studio continues to make an outsized impact on the communities it serves—both through its built work and its commitment to advocacy and education within the architecture and design fields.
