jodi foster design + planning

My company has had the pleasure to work with Jodi Foster on three major renovations in the past 4 years. I have, since early in our relationship, been very impressed with her professionalism in that Jodi has always done what she said she will do in the time frame that was promised. Her detailed drawings make my job so much easier, from electrical layout to backing for bathroom fixtures, colour schemes and trim styles. And the myriad of other details that make up a large house renovation. Plus, being in meetings with Jodi and Carly and the clients is fun! I enjoy their sense of humour. I have recommended them to other clients and will do so again.

Jodi and Carly did a wonderful job with our space and were a pleasure to work with! We were delighted with the design, their elegant and tasteful recommendations and their accessibility was fantastic!

I am a renovation contractor and have worked with Jodi Foster Design and Planning on a number of renovation projects. Our crew and sub-trades are always happy to be working on a job with them as we know it means great design, excellent plans that are easy to work from, easy communication and problem solving and we know we will have a great working relationship with the design team and the owners. Jodi Foster Design gets our highest recommendation.

I have had the pleasure to work with Jodi and Carly on a number of different exciting and challenging projects over the years. They have great attention to detail, highly knowledgeable, extremely organized and are able to adapt to clients changes when necessary. The service they provide gives solid direction for all parties involved within the project which in turn streamlines the construction process and eliminates any costly mistakes. They are both very enjoyable to work with and I would highly recommend them.

We have been working with Jodi for many years and have recommended her over and over again to friends and family. We recently did a major renovation of our kitchen and laundry/entry area (completed in October) and we are thrilled with the results. Jodi has an amazing eye for space - she maximizes the practical side while at the same time ensuring that every detail is consistent in terms of the overall 'look' of the finished product. She is prompt, pleasant and cheerful in all her communications and in introducing us to her new partner Carly, which made the whole design process so pleasant for us!

What a relief it was to have Jodi Foster join the building team for our new home. Her knowledge proved helpful over and over. The quality of her work left little room for interpretation so that construction errors were minimized. Her high level of professionalism summoned full respect from the rest of the team which helped the process run smoothly. Deadlines were never a problem because of adequate planning. We unequivocally recommend Jodi for interior design and planning!

We hired Jodi in the spring of 2015, to manage the design component of our extensive renovation project. This involved considerable structural changes, followed by a 'down to the studs', ground--up restoration and renovation of our nearly 4000 square foot, two level home. Jodi runs a tight ship and kept us moving along with regular meetings on site, by phone, or electronic communications. She was gently persistent with keeping us on track, which was made all the more difficult by the 1200 kilometer distance between our primary home and our project site. She is an ultimate professional and worked hard with our best interests as her focus, to make sure all the trades and contractors were persistently on the same page. Our contractors told us on multiple occasions how much easier their job was with Jodi on the team. She was indispensable in the structural component and overall design of our home and produced extensive blueprint plans. Laterally these involved colour schemes, electrical outlet/access points, furniture placement, wall art lighting and personal space considerations. We would have been lost without her help, guidance and creative flares and skills with colors and textures in the head-spinning areas of floor coverings, tiles, kitchen development and lighting. Overall, she brought together a myriad of design and construction components to leave us with the stunning home we now have around us.

My wife and I were very pleased to have hired Jodi Foster for the Interior Design of our house at the Blue Grouse Winery on Vancouver Island. She (and her team) was very easy to work with, actually listens to the customer and had superb taste as we worked to reconstruct our farm house. She work with us on all internal elements of the house, finishes, lighting, plumbing, bathrooms, kitchen and all of the furniture. She made our life easy and understood our expectations. I have no hesitation in recommending her and would work with her again.

We at Terrazza Builders extremely enjoyed working with Jodi and her team. Every decision was made with great detail! Making the contracting of this job a breeze. Thank you Jodi!

We recently completed a rather large kitchen renovation with the assistance of Jodi. She did an amazing job at configuring the space to meet our needs. Not only did she assist us with the kitchen, she also helped us make many decisions with lighting configuration and other difficult choices. She is not only a designer, she is a master planner with drawings made to superior quality and clarity. Most importantly, she was very friendly, always available and very approachable. Together, these attributes are beyond what most designers offer, as her previous experience really shows in her ability to rely her thoughts to paper planning to the final product. She kept in touch with contractors at every step of the way, and we could not be happier with the final product.

I had the pleasure to work with Jodi on a recent Millwork project/renovation. Drawings were extremely detailed, and Jodi was great to communicate with and styles and finishes. I would not hesitate to recommend Jodi Foster for any project.

Today we are living in our beautiful retirement home in Victoria BC designed to suit our needs and wants, thanks in very large part to Jodi Foster. From the moment we bought the house, Jodi helped us take a 50's raised bungalow with small rooms to a lovely open concept home well suited for family get togethers and entertaining guests. The renovation was extensive, removing walls and repurposing space. The kitchen is now large and very functional opening onto living and entertaining areas. What were small rooms are now transformed into a wonderful Master Suite. The lower level was completely gutted and now has great rooms, light and beautiful views. Jodi produced the redesign incorporating our ideas, then worked closely with our Contractor to be sure it all came together. As we lived out of town during the renovation, Jodi was often there to be our eyes and ears. She helped select materials, finding pieces that worked well in our space and which brought the house together. We have finally moved in, in the last 2 weeks, and are just so happy with the end result of the renovation. We can't thank Jodi enough for all her help, skill and guidance.
