The Mix between old and new is what makes a home interesting and unique

My design work is informed by formal education as a stylist and textile designer, my love of everyday objects, and very early on, the women who helped shape my aesthetics.

I am fascinated with texture and patterns created by nature.  I love the juxtaposition of a simple modern shape against the lovely, worn patina of an old wooden bowl or a vintage textile.

In collaboration with wonderful clients my work has graced the pages of design magazines, television, and many homes on the West Coast.

It has been such a pleasure working with Janine; I don’t want our work to be finished as I have enjoyed it so much. Although I live in Calgary, we were able to work quickly and communicate via e -mail and the phone. It was really amazing how she brought so many ideas together as we carefully made choices for my home. She has been able to create a feeling of comfort and beauty that absolutely reflects our family’s personality. She is a gem!

Janine had lots of excellent ideas and came to us with focused choices based on our early consultation. We particularly loved the on-site follow up and installation supervision to make sure our vision was realized.

Janine is an absolute pleasure to work with. Her ability to know what is right for a space is effortless and on several things she suggested I was a little unsure but trusted her vision and they were always more than perfect in the space. She has a clear vision and is so helpful, professional and decisive that it made a process that was daunting for me enjoyable and fun. I can’t wait to find future projects to work on with her.

Four years and three home renovations later…working with Janine was an absolute pleasure. Janine was quickly able to identify our needs, our style and the end results always exceeded our expectations and dreams. We were always in awe of her creativity, her sense of function and flawless attention to detail. We can’t wait for the next renovation.

Well I can’t thank you enough for all the attention and love you have given and are continuing to give to the Copper Ridge project. You have been exceptional in your commitment, your willingness to go beyond the initial scope that was laid out and your constant effervescent smile that always put us at ease in those many tense and trying moments. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Janine.

Barbara & Kim, CRCC Britannia Beach

We would recommend Janine to others without hesitation! She took the time to get to know us, our preferences, our sense of style and worked tirelessly to find just the right fit for us. When we could not find a middle-ground on a particular item, Janine persisted, gently yet persuasively, until she found something that pleased us both. Her eye for detail, ready knowledge of resources, and unwillingness to settle on something “close enough”, made her an invaluable part of our renovation team. We could not be more pleased with the beautiful results!

Hanz & Kim, West Vancouver

Janine’s gentle persuasive manner produced a timeless, yet personal master bedroom suite with walk in closet and full bathroom. She mixes old and new, has great ideas to work within budget and is calm, efficient and has great attention to detail.

Janine’s style is enviable. If you love the delicate balance between old and new, modern and classic, clean lines and livable interiors, she’s it.

When I first realized the dimensions of my new coach house I knew I would have a problem fitting in any of my furniture. Then I met Janine. Your enthusiasm, expertise, knowledge and ease of getting things done helped me in not getting overwhelmed and the speed and ease that you accomplished everything was excellent!!

Joanna, Montreal

Janine has helped my husband and I design several rooms in our home. She is thoughtful, professional and tasteful. We have come to count on her when making most decisions. She closely listens to us and is even able to tactfully resolve any differences of opinion. Janine has made our home pretty, comfortable, and complete.

Joe & Colleen, Whistler & North Vancouver

Janine is a pleasure to work with.  Her design sensibilities are thoughtful and finely honed.  She’s an exceptional collaborator, and I’d recommend Janine without hesitation.

Hilary, Toronto

Janine has an amazing eye, is so easy to work with and wealth of design information. She was very attentive to our vision, but introduced us to a version which was so much more. She sourced from both well known shops, and boutique shops and local artists. She was attentive to our budget.

Abi and Jan, West Vancouver

Janine is very friendly, engaging and wonderful to work with.
