Why
77 inches?

Building permit drawings would only get approved if the minimum required head clearance of the room was met. As per Ontario building codes 6′-5″ (77 inches) is the minimum height required for a room, path of egress and in staircases. Thereby, 77 inches started playing a crucial role in all my designs. I eventually started spending longer hours in trying to meet the minimum required height in residential basements and home addition projects. Life started revolving around the number 77. I came up with no better name then 77 inches Design Studio.
