“Claire came highly prepared, and she provided a questionnaire prior to our meeting to better understand my tastes and interests. Using that information, she brought relevant samples and helped me to select some of the materials that would suit the look I was after.”

“I had the pleasure of consulting with Claire on selecting the finishes for my kitchen renovation. Claire was able to assist us in making appropriate selections that fit our style and our space. Without her, I am not sure I would have managed to find my way out of a mountain of white paint chips! It really came together beautifully and I could not be more pleased.”

“I found Claire based on her reviews and once I spoke with her, I knew I had made the right choice! Claire presented her ideas while being attentive to the need to balance our lifestyle and preferences in achieving the right look for us. In other words, she gently leads you to explore colours and styles out of your normal comfort zone.  Her attention to detail is incredible and hence the colours, textures all tie together.
