Design Happens

I have worked with Irene and Eileen on many projects and find them very professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. They are extremely knowledgeable and have wonderful ideas. I am proud to offer their services to our clients.

Irene her team have been a godsend. With all the options available, I get totally lost when making design decisions. Irene gets me back on track with excellent solutions in a very short amount of time. She has lots of experience and connections. I would still be staring at items on the shelf without Irene and her team.

Irene and Eileen helped us with choosing paint colours and with blinds. They are absolutely wonderful to work with and we love the colours and blinds that they recommended. They listened to us and quickly figured out our tastes and worked with us to choose paint colours that all flow beautifully throughout the rooms. They also offered other design tips and practical suggestions for our renos and both are very friendly, helpful and quick to answer calls and emails.

We wanted to change the drapes and curtains in our front room and dinning room area plus change the wall colour. Irene and Eileen were a great help. They showed us paint colour options and made suggestions on colours. Eileen went above and beyond to ensure our drapes and window blinds transformed our home to WOW. I would highly recommend both Eileen and Irene for home makeovers.

Irene was recommended to me by our painting company and I'm so glad they did! She came to our house and listened to what we wanted, taking into account our style, as well as that of the house and the neighbourhood. She helped us select colours that really updated the look of our property and added value. I would definitely suggest her services to anyone looking to make a change. When you think about what you spend to repaint it really makes sense to invest a little in choosing the right colours the first time!

Eileen and Irene were amazingly helpful and creative with my recent kitchen reno. The various contractors showed up on time and stayed within the planned budget. I would recommend their services without hesitation.

We were very impressed with the approach and commitment that Irene and her assistant Eileen provided us with.

They went the extra mile in selecting and completing our renovating project, and were always available to answer any questions we had.

We will use their services again,as well we will gladly recommend their services to others.

To Irene and Eileen,
we wish you all the best and look forward to working with you again.

Working with Irene was a total pleasure, she is so helpful, knowledgeable and patient. Her color choices and design ideas, were just perfect. Our renovation started to flounder and she helped get everything back on track. I highly recommend Irene's services.

Irene's consultation support for selecting exterior house colors was outstanding ! She is incredibly patient, and skilled at collaboratively working towards the right color decisions. Irene made this process enjoyable and stress free. I would definately recommend her to family and friends.

We've been using designhappens since 2008. Over 8 projects, Irene has provided us with an array of colours to keep the game fresh! From our first renovation in Coquitlam, to our most recent build in Burnaby we never stop to think who we will call first. She is quick to respond to emails and always wanting the best for our products. She treats them as if they were her own.

We have another project lined up and have already consulted her regarding the window colours!

5 stars all the way, she will not disappoint!
