Interior Designers & Decorators in Torrance.

“My husband and I own a bakery-deli. In business for 29 years, we found ourselves operating in a tired retail area that we had outgrown. We challenged Nancy Lem to survey our existing space, usage patterns, and traffic flow. We asked her to analyze this and present us with a preliminary conceptual design scheme. Over the course of months, the final design evolved. Pages of plans, detailed drawings, mill right designs, interior and exterior elevations, reflected ceiling plans, electrical/ telephone/ cable plans, flooring plans, finish plans, cabinetry and furniture plans, product specifications…. It was daunting…I really had no idea of what we had initiated, but there was no turning back. Nancy guided us effortlessly through this major renovation (6months). She was a demanding representative for us. Her drawings served as a compass for everyone involved in the project. Visiting the job site daily, checking everything from dimensions to the quality of application of the paint. Guiding the project to its completion. Nancy combines careful listening with creative vision and problem solving. In my opinion, it is this combination of qualities that contribute to her success. The end result was not just a work place that was beautiful, but practical and functional. Three years later, we decided to enhance the quality of our personal life by renovating our 22 year-old, residential property. I was happy to know that Nancy would be working beside us again. Our dining room and living room, were rarely used; and seemed such a waste of living space. The wall separating the kitchen and dining room in my opinion had to come down to create a more open, functional area. The colour palette was dated, and there was no design theme. I needed Nancy to fix all my wrongs and make me fall in love with my home. This reno lasted for six months and consisted of reconstructing a Living Room, Lounge area (formerly Dining Room), Kitchen, Seated Eating area, Two Bathrooms, Front Foyer, Family Room and Master Bedroom. Nancy drew up the plans, sourced the materials and furnishings, specified the fixtures and fittings, chose the colour scheme and advised on window coverings. She arranged subcontractors and basically supervised the entire process until the curtains and pictures were hung and the sofas positioned properly. She accessory shopped for me, and turned my house into a home. All I needed to do was personalize it with pictures. Nancy will find a solution to any design challenge. She will guide you through the process with a well thought out plan, helping you to avoid costly mistakes. She will assist you through your design process making you feel comfortable with your decisions. She will work closely with you to make sure whatever your project is; that is practical, functional and beautiful and will reflect your personal style and needs. Lisa”

“Renovated our new second story boathouse, consisting of three bedrooms, two baths, living/family room, new kitchen and dining area. Ran the whole project from start to finish with the contractor. We are absolutely in love with our space thanks to Lena at Hilltop.”

“I am absolutely in love with the work that Curato (Sydney and Ali) have created for my home. Their attention to detail and bringing in beautiful (and local) pieces have brought my living space to a whole new level. They listened to my needs, and handled everything with professionalism, on time, and on budget. They were amazing to work with, and I can't wait for our next project! Thank You so much for making my living space so elegant and gorgeous! Highly Recommend!”

“Rebecca was an absolute joy to work with!! She listened to our desires and transformed them into reality. Not only does she encourage her clients creativity, but she pairs her knowledge and designers eye to make the perfect match. We were absolutely blown away by the drive Rebecca had to make our visions come to life! She took a small budget and made our home look like a million dollars. We felt important and taken care of! Rebecca's work ethic, and productive nature are above average and she takes it to the next step. You know without a doubt her passion and gift for design with the long hours she puts in. We could not be happier with our first home!”

“In 2004 Hurricane Ivan hit the Cayman Island, where I was a resident with disastrous damage to so many buildings, homes. My home was one effected. Debbie came to my rescue with confidence, ideas total professionalism despite having to deal with devastation on a personal level. Now that I reside in Winnipeg, I only wish I had her expertise to help me with my design desires.”

“Love this beautiful place! Very charming! Stunning fashions, accessories, home decor items, garden items... I can spend hours here and I usually do! The owner is awesome. The staff are very helpful and friendly. From May to October I routinely pop in to see what new items are in and what's on sale. Always our go to place when the girls are in town for a visit. No one ever leaves disappointed!”

“Roberta was such an asset to us as we designed, built and decorated our new home. She was sensitive to our style and tastes and helped us to create a beautiful home which we love. She not only has an incredible sense of style and design but she also has an understanding of the science behind why certain decisions are advised. Roberta worked very well within our budget and, I believe, she actually saved us more money by hiring her. She also worked very well with the other trades. I have no hesitation in highly recommending her.”

“Anna was an absolute pleasure to work with. Her attention to detail and eye for design will certainly take her far in this industry. Anna staged our place before we put it up for sale, and it was without a doubt 100% worth it. I would recommend Anna to any of our friends!”

“We have used Discount Decorators several times now and they have always exceeded our expectations. The first was when we gave them the keys to our house and gave them creative license to redecorate our Living and Dining Rooms. We came back from our holiday to find the most wonderful and unimaginable transformation for us. We were ecstatic to see what they had done. They utilized much of what we had adding their exquisite flare to our once passe' surroundings. This was the best decision we could ever make. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. We also had them do a makeover to our window dressings another time. I am so pleased with their recommendations. It astounds me the difference window coverings can make. I'm looking now to see what else they can do for me!”

“Hired North Muskoka House to consult, design and ultimately deliver kitchen and 3 bathroom makeovers. Kris quickly understood what we are going for design-wise and brought some great drawings to the table. She priced the project and delivered it on time and on budget...a rarity from my home renovation experience! Great job!”
