Sarah Valiant has my strongest possible recommendation. Retain her, and your living environment will improve so much that your life will too, and you will actually do it for less than you could by not retaining her.
In essence, this was THE perfect client experience; I only regret that I did not know Sarah years ago. Sarah Valiant is a superb designer for three fundamental reasons. First, she has what I think is unmatched talent in creating a design and final effect that does nothing less than draw wonderful compliments from everyone who sees her finished work, and makes your home the best place you can possibly be. Second, she is an excellent business person, who really knows how to seek value, cerate and execute a simple and effective plan, and do so with the utmost respect for your resources. Third, and perhaps most impressive, she TRULY understands her client, takes the time to read deeply into conversations, lifestyle and your personal preferences on a living environment, and then to create what you can not even dream of. She has made me so proud of my home, and I am very grateful to her for helping me to create a set of surroundings that reflects what I love in life with elegance, dash, and inspiration.
Her design for my living room, dining room and entrance hall converted my bland condo into an elegant and welcoming home, which has all the design features, colours and lighting that come together to create a home steeped in dignity and elegance, yet also a deeply inviting and joyous warmth. Her first rate university education in business and her European schooling in design, are evident in everything she does. Moreover, her time spent living in London and Paris creates a depth of experience and instinct that you simply can not find in other designers.
I would have to say though that as a client, from my point of view, it is the combination of the care she takes in everything she does, the respect she demonstrates and the dedication that she pours into giving her clients more than what they thought possible for their own homes that wins the day. I am 54 years of age, have had thousands of dealings with professionals and experts over the years. This was without question the best design, contracting, or project experience I have ever had.
Sarah, thank you so much for making my condo into a beautiful home.
