My wife and I were 25 years away with postings in Europe, USA and had collected an array of furniture, some of it contemporary, some of it not. We were repatriated back to Calgary, our new condo was modern, spare, windows on 3 sides and we knew we needed professional assistance to make it all work. Suzanne made two visits to survey our living space, gave us several suggestions then provided us with detailed information and sources on the following;
• She first suggested replacing all the builder grade halogen light fixtures with LED (track, pot and pendant) lighting. This was a major improvement, we were especially pleased with the chic and modern pendant lights in the master BR that run along the ceiling with ultra thin conductors. We saw no way to do this before getting the idea from Suzanne on the ‘Vibia” lighting’
• In regard to installing the lighting she referred us to an electrical contractor who completely understood the aesthetics of the products we had selected. This went very smooth and under budget
• We had an over stuffed sofa from the UK that was beautiful but too bulky for the room and the modern look, Suzanne suggested a legacy Danish modern piece which we sourced a few months later. Very inspired and the focal piece in the living room.
• She consulted on the type of bookshelf that would suit the room without leaving a heavy presence. The floating floor to ceiling shelves were the result
• Directed us a furniture store for the solid wood cube end tables that very nicely matched the open grain wood plank floors.
• She suggested to place four of the moveable closet modules as a headboard in the master BR. Making for clever use of space and a dramatic headboard covered in canvas to match the same monotone paint scheme
• Suggested the Herman Miller bench in the master BR
We are so very pleased with the outcome, creativity and collaboration in working with Suzanne. Five stars and highly recommended
