Healthcare Office – Medical & Dental

  • "Angela was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process of relocating my practice. She guided me through the space planning phase, drew up the construction plans, and procured all the products. Her ability to know which colors, finishes, and designs work together is truly a gift. She worked seamlessly with my contractor and was very aware of the budget we had set. I confidently recommend using Angela for any project you may have.”

    Dr. Kelvin Mah, DMD – Owner, Smile City Square Dental, Vancouver BC

  • “Angela was the savior of the Crossroads Dental project. Prior to Angela being hired, the consultancy, coordination and design were very much “off the rails” until she became involved. As the building owners, we very much sighed with relief when a professional got involved. The difference was obvious and the results speak for themselves. We hope you win some industry awards for your vision and execution, plus maybe some humanitarian awards for navigating such a frustrating project. Good work – congratulations!”

    Andrew Adams, Project Manager at PCI Developments Corp, Vancouver, BC

Residential Interior Design

She took the time to understand and deliver on our vision while ensuring that our dream home could be constructed in a cost-effective manner.

We strongly encourage anyone looking for a full-service designer to contact Angela.”

    Dale Muellerleile, Homeowner – Mt Vernon, WA
