There are a dozen or so employees milling about &#8212; working on a myriad of tasks from handcrafting tiny trees to adjusting the retractable roof of a scaled down Rogers Centre.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2006, co-owners David Myles and Michael Burke have been wooing developers across North America with their intricately detailed architectural models. \u201cPeople want to see the granite, the glass and the spandrel &#8212; they want to see those materials. They love the tangibility of the scale models,\u201d said Burke.<\/p>\n<p>BuzzBuzzHome took a tour of the Myles Burke workspace in Vaughan, Ontario to find out more about the construction process and what drives the company\u2019s creativity.
