It was a pleasure to work with you, and achieve your dream home. **★★★★★ — lydiakoop, Feb. 2021** > I’m on the Board of Directors for my condo. We needed to update the exterior and the hallways of our almost 30 year old building. The work would be completed over the course of about 2 years, but we wanted a plan and a designer who could do that for us. Kathleen was recommended to us by a friend who had built an addition to her house and refinished all the interior. > > Working with 5 disparate people on a BOD is not easy. Kathleen has put together a very comprehensive design for us. She listened and understood what we wanted and she gave very professional presentations to the board (on zoom) that included computer generated visuals of the final results. She researched and recommended finishing products. She has provided us with annotated graphics that can be used by our property manager and tradesmen to complete the job. Her prices were reasonable and she has always delivered what she promised, professionally and on time. > > I would definitely use her services again and recommend her to others. **Comment from Ramsey Design:** > Thank you for the kind words.

She offered some great ideas and was able to guide me through the different stages of my design, from layout, to colour selection, and the dozens of small items you normally would overlook.

Highly recommend! **★★★★★ — Maureen Callahan, July 2018** > Kathleen revived a tired bedroom, creating a warm, elegant, classic environment. She built the design around a cherished piece of art acquired on a trip which makes the completed room even more special because of the memories it preserves. I love waking up in this room and also spending time in it at different times of the day when the light creates different effects.

Definitely will be using Kathleen Steele Design for my next project without hesitation. **★★★★★ — mcateer77, Nov. 2015** > Kathleen Steele (One by One Interiors) helped me with my Bronte Townhouse renovation from beginning to end. During our initial meeting, Kathleen was attentive and highly motivated to understand my vision, preferences, family and work habits, all in an attempt to develop a well matched plan for going forward. Kathleen has a natural ability to not just listen to the client, but to be able to truly hear what the client is saying/feeling in terms of needs versus wants. Kathleen made amazing recommendations for all my wall colors, carpet choices, light fixtures, cabinetry, hardware, plumbing, window treatments, furniture, and accents. Kathleen worked extremely well with my architect, construction supervisor and all the sub-trades. Her ability to pull together and work with many moving parts is impressive. I highly recommend Kathleen --- she made my renovation smooth and enjoyable. She can be trusted. Of greatest importance to me is integrity and Kathleen demonstrated high integrity on numerous occasions --- her word completely matches her actions. I look forward to my next project with Kathleen at the helm! ## Selected projects - [Itabashi Way](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/itabashi-way-pj-vj~7577240) - Location: Burlington, ON - Photos: 13 - [Plains Road Condo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/plains-road-condo-pj-vj~7161808) - Location: Burlington, ON - Photos: 15 - Description: Open concept kitchen are great in a condo, and at \#plainsrdcondo this kitchen sets the tone for the whole design.
