Common questions
What kinds of projects do you take on?
We work on residential interior design projects in Toronto, including condos, renovations, kitchens, bathrooms, small spaces, finish selections, and furnishing support.
Do I need a full renovation to hire an interior designer?
No. Many projects benefit from design guidance even when construction is limited or the goal is to improve layout, storage, styling, or finish decisions.
How early should I bring a designer into the project?
Earlier is usually better. Planning before approvals, contractor pricing, or product orders begin gives you more control over the outcome.
Do you offer virtual design?
Yes. For the right project, e-design can be a practical way to get design direction with less on-site involvement.
Can you help with condo board approval packages?
We can help you organize the design direction and project information needed for condo renovation planning, especially when approvals or access rules affect the scope.
What should I prepare before a consultation?
Bring or send room photos, any measurements or plans you have, inspiration images, timing goals, and a short explanation of what is not working in the space now.
