ABOUT US
Designing a home’s interior is a beautiful, functional, sensory 3D puzzle that gets resolved through the relationship between the client and the designer, and what each bring to the project.
CLIENTS
I work with clients who are building a new home or renovating an existing one to better meet their needs. I offer interior design and decorating services, and I specialize in kitchen and bath design.
I have worked on a wide range of projects and budgets, from economical rental suites to expansive new home projects with multiple home theatres. The scope of a project, big or small, is interesting but is always secondary to the opportunity to build a relationship with a client, find out what is important to them, and then work together to accomplish it. This is fun!
BUILDERS & DESIGNERS
I work regularly with a number of builders on their own spec projects, or with their clients. On some of these projects I do just the cabinetry, and on others provide interior design services. I really enjoy having the mix of project types in my schedule.
I also work with interior designers, providing the cabinetry work for their projects and their clients. Before I begin, I discuss the parameters of my client contact with each designer. Some prefer to maintain primary client contact throughout the job, and others have completed their contribution to the project by the time they send me their design drawings.

LATEST NEWS

Le Corbusier was one of the pioneers of Modern architecture at the beginning of the last century, famous for his open plans and clean, geometric designs. One of his best-known quotes is “a house is a machine for living”.

I moved around a lot as a kid. We lived in 10 different places by the time I started university, including a year in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania. That was pretty cool. I loved that no matter where we were my parents always made our house feel like our home.

Something I never tire of telling people, clients, friends … is how great the people I work with are. I’ve worked with many different groups of people through the course of my career and there are always some great ones that stand out from the crowd. At Armadio Kitchen and Bath the whole group is fantastic!
