A new year brings a fresh perspective and often, a quiet realization that your space no longer reflects how you live today.
Maybe your home feels cluttered, unfinished, or simply tired. Maybe you’ve outgrown certain pieces, your layout no longer works, or you’re ready to elevate your finishes without committing to a full renovation. Or perhaps you’re building from scratch and want expert guidance from the very beginning.
Whatever stage you’re in, a thoughtfully refreshed space can completely transform how you feel at home.
You Don’t Always Need a Renovation to Feel Renewed
One of the biggest misconceptions about interior design is that change requires tearing everything out. In reality, many homes can be beautifully refreshed by working with what you already own — and enhancing it with intention.
I help clients:
- Reorganize and restyle existing furniture for better flow and functionality
- Refresh spaces with updated lighting, carpets, and window coverings
- Reupholster cherished furniture pieces instead of replacing them
- Introduce new furnishings that complement your existing home
- Select luxury silks, natural linens, velvets, and durable commercial-grade fabrics
Often, it’s these thoughtful adjustments that make a space feel entirely new.
From New Builds to Complete Transformations
For clients building or renovating, I provide guidance from the very beginning — ensuring every decision works together seamlessly.
This includes:
- Window and door selections
- Interior and exterior finishes
- Lighting plans and fixture selection
- Space planning and furniture layouts
- Materials that balance beauty, durability, and long-term value
Whether it’s a full renovation or a new build, having an experienced designer involved early saves time, money, and stress — while achieving a more refined result.

I work with clients on a wide range of properties, including:
- Private homes

My clients are located throughout Etobicoke, Toronto, the GTA, and overseas, and each project is approached with the same care, detail, and personal attention.
Design That Balances Beauty and Function
A well-designed space should not only look beautiful — it should support how you live, work, and move through your day. My approach blends aesthetics with organization, practicality, and comfort so your space feels calm, cohesive, and effortless to maintain.
