Nothing short of Awesome!
Our experience with Kate was nothing short of awesome. She came onto the scene part way through our renovation project, jumped right in and got the ball rolling and us back on track. Her calmness and expertise in everything from floor plans to decorating resulted in unique and cost saving ideas. It was a pleasure to work with someone who really made you feel that only you and your project mattered everytime you met. We had many decisions to make throughout the project and she managed to make it less stressful and at times enjoyable. I have since recommended her to many friends and family, who too have enjoyed the same degree of service. The only sad part for me is that she does not come here to visit anymore...at least not until the next project.

Professional and creative...Exactly what we were looking for!
My husband and I were in the process of buying a brand new home. We needed help in making decisions about what cabinets to put in, paint colour, countertops, flooring, etc. The list goes on and on. We saw her work in a friend’s kitchen and we quickly contacted her to help us with our home. We knew right away that Kate would be a great fit for us. Kate was great to work with and took the time to listen to our goals and our vision for the house. The design package she put together was professional and creative. It was exactly what we were looking for. Now that we are in our home, we are so happy with all the choices and decisions we made with Kate. She has truly made it our dream home! THANK YOU KATE!!!

Beautiful and practical!
When we moved into our new house we didn’t know where to start. Kate helped us with everything from picking furniture and paint colours to drawing lay-outs and designing built-in cabinets. Everything she’s done is beautiful AND practical. What’s more, Kate is incredibly smart, reliable and resourceful — she’s also a really nice person. Thanks to Kate our house is a real home which we look forward to raising our family in. Thank you Kate!

From nice to extraordinary!
When my husband Dave and I decided to build a custom home, we thought it would be exciting and fun to choose all of the details and finishes. We are extremely happy that our builder recommended Kate + Co Design to help us with this! Kate made many wonderful suggestions, my favourites being the selection and layout of various different porcelain tiles throughout our home. She has a way of taking something nice and creating something extraordinary out of it! Kate was great to work with and we are thrilled with every detail of our new home.

The space was completely reinvented.
I have only positive things to say about Kate, her talent for design and dedicated service. I really feel that she understands my personal style & the look I want in my home. My preferences and lifestyle are taken into account in all of her recommendations. Kate helped us decorate our last home. She really inspired us with common sense design suggestions that truly transformed the space. The space was completely reinvented. When we listed the house, we had buyers complementing the decor & asking for the names of the paint colours! Now in our new home Kate has helped us through a number of renovations. She has selected the paint colour & wallpaper. (I say she selected because I trust her so implicitly that I do whatever she suggests and am always pleased) She is very resourceful and just knows what stores to recommend for everything and anything. We will continue to seek out Kate’s assistance as we work through our new house and make it ours. Many thanks Kate!

Absolutely outstanding!
Thanks so much for your efforts in terms of the boardroom/bar refresh and our marketing floor that you designed and orchestrated for Bacardi Canada. In light of the limited budget and the dated existing decor/structure of the facility, the challenge presented was enormous – we never envisioned such a dramatic change. The rooms look absolutely outstanding!! Furthermore, your ability to deliver within a tight deadline is very much appreciated. We look forward to working with you on our next project.

Customers never stop oohing and ahhing!
Kate was referred to me by a friend, and I am very glad for that referral, because she did a spectacular job on the redesign of my bakery. It is everything I dreamed of, and more. Customers never stop oohing and ahhing over it, and regularly ask for Kate’s business card. She has an eye for detail, form, scale and function that must be a god given talent because I could never have figured out half the stuff she came up with on my own. By the end, I realized that I should keep my mouth shut and let her do her thing, rather than offer inexperienced opinions that only stood in the way of her creative genius. Now, when faced with any design dilemma, I simply ask myself, “What would Kate do?”
