We contacted Catherine about a year ago when we were thinking of undergoing a kitchen renovation. Given the space constraints and never working with a designer before we thought this was going to be an uphill battle. > > After our first meeting with Catherine she had asked me “Besides a wonderful design what are you looking to get out of this?” I thought this was a wonderful question and an opportunity to be totally honest with her. My response to her was this, “I would like to walk out of this renovation with a design that would wow me but more importantly I wanted the money we were spending on a designer to be the best money spent on the project.” > > We met with Catherine and spoke a few times about some of the things we liked and wanted to see incorporated in our new kitchen and main floor. She took our thoughts and worked her magic and delivered us a kitchen and main floor that blew our minds away. She was very conscious of our budget and our time as well. She put to paper a design that was practical, elegant and what we believe to be timeless. She answered all calls and questions in a timely fashion and was always clear and to the point. Not only did she utilize the space, she also put a lot of time and effort in the small tiny details that tied this whole project together. She got along with every trade that worked in the house and all trades had very positive things to say about her (which is rare to have trades and designers get along). We admired her work ethic and her integrity and her ability to put us the client before anyone else. Her ideas were brilliant and her drawings were impressive. We had received many comments on how precise and in depth her drawings were. What was most impressive was the ability to tie all these pieces in together and give a platform for our contractor to work with. She was extremely easy to talk to and worked well with our contractor. She even made arrangements to have us see some of the work and talk to previous clients of hers. This left us with a level of comfort that we chose the right designer for us. We have no issues recommending Catherine to anyone looking to do some renovations or design work. > > She went beyond the task. Not only did she deliver us a project design with wow factor it was truly the best money we spent. > > We get countless comments on how well and beautiful everything turned out. > > Thank you so much for everything. > > Continue doing what you do. We are grateful for your work and helping us to love our home, again. **★★★★★ — Sylvia Baumann, Oct. 2016** > "I whole heartedly recommend Catherine Stringer of Aim Interior Design. She does beautiful work. I have worked with Catherine on multiple projects ranging from two homes in downtown Toronto to a new build cottage and boathouse in Muskoka. Catherine is an exceptionally talented designer, has a beautiful esthetic and wonderful colour sense. She can transition from classic to contemporary depending on the need. Her attention to detail, in particular when preparing drawings, is perfection. Most importantly, Catherine is an absolute pleasure to work with and provides exceptional customer service. She always goes the extra mile. I highly recommend Aim Interior Design. **★★★★★ — nicknote, Oct. 2016** > I hired AIM Interior Design and its principal partner Catherine Stringer to be the designer for my new five thousand square foot home in Thornhill. The result was spectacular and she needs to be credited for doing a great job. First she is smart and knows all aspects of every design element. She also knows all the sources and suppliers and helps you deal with them and understand them. Also, and this can never be stressed enough, she is a fabulous person who is great and easy to work with. But I think most importantly for someone looking for a designer on their home, this is what you need to know: Instead of deciding on her vision and taking over the project and spending a lot of your money to achieve her vision, she instead finds out what you want and works in a collaborative way to achieve your vision at a lot less cost than some of the other designers I dealt with. So fulfill your design dreams with Catherine at AIM Interior Designs. You will be very happy and your money will be spent. Nick V **Comment from Aim Interior Design & Associates, Inc.:** > Thank you Nick for your thoughtful review, it was and still is an absolute pleasure to work with you! Catherine **★★★★★ — Irvine Robinson Interiors, Aug. 2016** > We've been fortunate to work alongside Catherine on a number of projects over the past few years. > She is a highly talented designer who pays close attention to every detail. We have nothing but good things to say about her stunning design work and personal character traits! > > We look forward to working alongside Catherine in the design industry for many years to come! **★★★★★ — juliewortzman, Sept. 2015** > I worked with Catherine Stringer of Aim Interior Design and Associates for a period of over 2 years renovating my country home in King City. > Catherine worked to understand my needs/taste/budget and incorporated these elements into a wonderful extensive renovation of my home. > She provided guidance and made suggestions with professional expertise, well equipped with knowledge and contacts with all of the suppliers. > Catherine also helped in suggesting the contractor who ultimately got the job. > I would highly recommend Catherine and her design company. She is a wonderful individual with a lovely work ethic. > Thank you. **★★★★★ — Heintzman Sanborn Architecture~Interior Design, Nov. 2013** > We hired Aim Interior Design to work with us on a project and found the principle Cathy Stringer to be a hardworking and inspired professional who was a pleasure to work with. She has a great visual sense and assisted us in bringing the fabrics and finishes to life. Highly recommended! **★★★★★ — sharonchisholm, March 2013** > I am a realtor, and as a closing gift I hired AIM Design-Catherine, to give a consultation for my clients new custom built home. My clients were so impressed. It was really the WOW factor for them. > Without a doubt, her skills, expertise and pleasant personality were top notch. > If anyone ever needs any advise, she is definitely the Go-TO Lady of Design. > > Sharon Chisholm > C-21 Leading Edge > Markham, Ontario ## Selected projects - [Transitional Georgian](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/transitional-georgian-pj-vj~187357) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 20 - [Collector's Home](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/collector-s-home-pj-vj~1343583) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 32 - Description: AimID had the pleasure to design a world traveler and collector’s dream home, built to house an expansive and impressive collection.

There will be different variants of it now. It is a quartzite. Hope you find something similar you like that is available now. **Q: Can you please tell me where to purchase these mirrors?** *(in Photo Questions)* Gorgeous bath!
