Deborah is an absolutely incredible designer. Everyday, I look around my house and think about how happy my husband and I are with our renovation. Deborah is professional, thoughtful, and generous. She shows a very strong attention to detail while also understanding the big picture, and understands the importance of cohesion and ensuring things flow properly. We honestly could not have done our renovation without Deborah; or if we had, we would have ended up with a much worse final product.

This was the third time I have been fortunate to work with Deborah. She carefully saw through the process of designing the interior of a 450-square-foot separate unit. She was accessible, knowledgeable and even drove me around to make selections and I am totally happy with the results.

I highly recommend Daniels--French Designs. Not only was Deborah a joy to work with, but she helped me achieve all my renovation goals within budget. She's smart, has a great eye, and worked well with our contractor and trades. Deborah provideddrawings and specifications for various design options for the rooms we were renovating, and was always patient while we made decisions. She helped make our reno go smoothly and was there to troubleshoot when needed. You'll be glad you chose to work with Deborah.

We highly recommend Deborah for all aspects of your design and renovation work! We initially started out consulting with Deborah for a kitchen renovation. Deborah worked with us over many iterations to design a kitchen that involved removing a wall, combining the previous kitchen and dining room and re-configuring our main floor. Eventually we extended this to a full renovation of our house and Deborah played the key role in helping us navigate a large and complex project. Deborah helped us secure an engineer, created layout drawings and worklists for contractors to bid on, and oversaw the delivery of all work. Deborah is a true professional who helped us with every aspect of the project -- from design and build to selecting our final furnishing -- we can't say enough about her skills as a designer, her in-depth knowledge of renovations/construction, and her patience. Deborah is truly outstanding! Patricia and Tueson

Hi Patricia & Tueson,

Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been a pleasure for me to work with you on the renovation of your home, and so exciting to see the transformation. Home renovation is a journey and as a designer, it is one I have taken many times. However, I never tire of it and I just love to see the joy people get in seeing the transformation of their home. You have been amazing to work with and I have so enjoyed getting to know all of you.

Covid has certainly added some stressful situations to renovations these days – hence still waiting for you fridge and wine fridge. Almost finished!

Thank you again, it has been a pleasure to work with you.
Deborah

Feeling absolutely lost and confused, my husband and I hired Deborah to help us design our uniquely small cabins. Thank god we did, as having her on our team changed our entire project! She is an absolute powerhouse, everything she touches literally glows! She was extremely efficient and knowledgeable, making everything flowed and came together perfectly. She literally held my hand through the entire process- which can definitely be daunting- but instead made me feel supported and empowered. She was available at anytime and continuously patient will all 500 of my crazy ideas! I can’t imagine doing any design work without her, she truly is a gem!

We very much need to update our kitchen and bathroom however we were not looking forward to all the trials and tribulations that renovations can bring. To help us deal with all potential issues, Deborah came to the rescue. She came hide or recommended by two friends who have engaged Deborah for the renovations. We were impressed with her ideas and recommendations including the contractor. With this done, we took off for a two month vacation. When we return, to our delight, renovations are completed. We didn’t recognize our kitchen and bathroom that was beautifully transformed. Deborah had performed her magic! Deborah listens to your needs and wants but guide you to a sensible plans and specifications. We were impressed with her diligence and reliability reliability. Further, she is costs Conscious and paid close attention to ensure high-quality constructions and finishes. Deborah is friendly easy-going personality does a lot to lessen the stress that usually accompanies a renovation.

Hi Sophie, thank you for your kind words. It was an absolute pleasure working with you both. I am so happy that you are pleased with the renovation - that's one of the things I love most about my job - seeing peoples joy with their new homes. Thanks again, take care!

PS sorry you had such difficulty with the HOUZZ webpage for reviews when you tried to edit your review!

I had a vision for my new kitchen, I hired Ms Deborah Danniels-French having heard how good she was thru word of mouth. Deborah was prompt, efficient, friendly, and was right there helping me design my dream kitchen, guiding me how to get the very best results, AND stay on budget. She was there from cradle to grave, keeping contractors on their promised timeline, and through her helpful suggestions, I ended up with a kitchen far beyond my dreams, right down to the exact paint colour for the walls. I'm so happy with the results, I'm now planning other renos, using nobody but Deborah. Thrilled !

Collaborative Architecture

I had the opportunity to collaborate with Deborah on a recent kitchen renovation project. As an Architect, I get to work closely with a variety of Consultants. I found Deborah to be very easy to work with. She helped find solutions to the inevitable quirks in a renovation project, and guided our Clients to make great design choices. Deborah has a keen eye for the little details that make a room sing. She shares our passion for making beautiful, small spaces that are welcoming, bright, and healthy - and won't blow your budget! I certainly hope we will have more chance to team up to help our Clients get the best in green design.

Her advice was priceless and I followed it to the letter , she was insightful and came up with some wonderful suggestions . I love her insight I have no reservations in recommending her and would use her in the future . Looking forward Marc

Thanks again,

It's terrific, working with Deborah. I'm a dud at decorating, and I don't have a car. She gives careful consideration to the issues--in my case, buying a new sofa and chair, and upholstering an old one, etc.-- then makes you aware of limitations, realities, options, costs... And then willingly will drive you around to see sofas and fabrics, deal to merchants, and the rest. I would have been lost without her guidance. As it is, I'm about to have the living room of my dreams.

Irma Benner

This was our second time in using Danniels-French Design and were every bit as pleased yet again. We weren't in the city for most of the renevations and totally depended on Danniels-French to co-ordinate all the work. Very knowledgable in helping us choose all that was needed for all the rooms. Work was completed on time and we are extremely happy with our beautifu Condo.

Hi Irma,
It was such a pleasure to work with the two of you and I would like to thank you very much for entrusting your home to me a second time around!
You have a beautiful home and I hope it gives you pleasure for years to come.
Warm regards,
Deborah
