about us

Niche Design was born with the goal of bringing interior design services to all, no matter how large or small the project. At niche we recognize that sometimes being a sounding board or offering some helpful suggestions can be just as important as providing full-service design.
We aim to work as-needed, so that our clients get the design help they require when they need it, and never feel pressured or overwhelmed by the design process. We work with our clients to determine how involved they would like the team to be, to achieve the end result of loving their home.
"This past winter, Sam helped me to redesign the colour scheme for the entire main floor of my home, including paint, window covering and kitchen tile choices. She was fantastic to work with and her advice helped me to turn a disjointed home into a cohesive unit.
She often manages full projects from start to finish, but was very flexible and offered me an hourly version of her services where she consulted on the choices that I made while I handled my own footwork.
Sam has great style. Her creative and thoughtful feedback helped me to turn my basic ideas into design decisions and her advice gave me the confidence to finally move forward with the project. I highly recommend Sam and Niche Design!"

"I had never worked with an interior designer and didn’t know what to expect, but Sam put my uncertainty to ease. She was great to work with. I found her to be personable, and very professional and I was surprised on how prompt she was in following up.
I would highly recommend Niche Design."

"We just wanted to share some photos of our FINISHED kitchen and thank you for your amazing work and help - who would have thought you could pretty much design a kitchen virtually?"
