Client Testimonials

Andrew was the ideal partner for us. He quickly identified with our style and personalities and worked to enhance our vision. He made this project fun: we felt we had the support we needed, while also having someone who challenged us with novel ideas.

Ross Hammett

Andrew re-designed my small apartment galley kitchen into an open, modern space that is both functional and beautiful. His attention to useability and design detail were excellent and he kept me on budget through the entire process. Thanks Andrew, you were a pleasure to work with!

Natalie Spence

Once we met Andrew and started to discuss the vision of our home and our lifestyle, things came together around a picture of who we are and how we like to live - we couldn’t have verbalized or pictured it without his help and would never have thought about the details that made it really tell the story of us.

Janice & Hugh

We have worked with Andrew Barker over the past two years to redesign our condo at Kings Landing in Vancouver. His approach is unique - through an initial visioning process we were able to articulate our needs in a creative environment. This visioning became the framework for our new design. Andrew is very flexible in his approach. He is extraordinarily talented and has a fresh approach from other design companies we have worked with. Above all, our needs are Andrew's priority.
