We needed design help with our 30 year old condo unit that was in its original state, and badly in need of an overhaul.

Happily, we found Dianne and really relied on her to help us with room layouts, furniture selection, colour selection and floor and tile selection. I came to understand quickly that I could really trust Dianne’s knowledge and taste for all of these things in the kitchen, living room, bathroom, bedroom and den.

Dianne was amazing to work with – always very receptive to what we were wanting to achieve, but inserting her wisdom and taste, and presenting us choices certain to stay within our budget. The end results were wonderful. Working with Dianne was a very positive and pleasurable experience.
Thanks Dianne!

We decided to do a full renovation to our home. We stripped everything down in the home to the studs, and we were referred to Dianne, who came highly recommended by a neighbour of ours. We’re very happy they introduced us to Dianne. Dianne was able to help us select the most ideal colours for our interior walls, tiles for hallways and bathrooms, exterior stone & stucco, our interlocking stone colours and more. She had a vision for the finished product, and now that it’s all done- we’ve received countless compliments from family, friends, and neighbours.
Our home now truly stands out, with tones that are not overbearing but extremely comforting to the eye and we can’t thank Dianne enough for her support and assistance to help us finalize our dream home. When renovating your home there are so many design choices to be made, and we’re extremely happy that Dianne was able to guide us along the way.
We highly recommend her to everyone!
Thank you Dianne

Dianne is passionate about her work and she consistently ensures that the design project is both aesthetically pleasing and comfortable to meet the homeowner’s needs while making the process enjoyable. She takes the time to assess the possibilities of the space while understanding the specific functions and style to work within a wide range of budgets.

Whether it is a large project, such as preparing a whole house for rental, or several individual interior and exterior colour consultations, her sharp eye for colour, creativity and attention to detail were exceptional.  We have used her professional network of trades which is optional and we found that the quality of their work matched her expectations.
Dianne is talented, knowledgeable and personable and we will look forward to working with Homefront Redesigns again in the future.

When I decided to sell my home, my real estate agent recommended renovations to update the house. Dianne was contacted to assist with choosing paint colours throughout, hardwood and tile flooring as well as the kitchen finishes. When the house was on the market, all the prospective buyers would comment on how beautiful if was.
So, when I purchased a condo unit, I contacted Dianne to help. Together we chose all new patio and interior furniture to scale and wall colours to bring it all together. After moving in, I realized that although it was a beautiful condo, it needed some improvements. I again contacted Dianne to help design the kitchen and both bathrooms to be more functional and bright. Now when people come in to my home, they never fail to comment on how beautiful it is. Many even ask to take pictures.
I am so very happy with my home and grateful to Dianne for all her hard work and guidance.

Dianne has been wonderful to work with. Her expertise has been invaluable and made our decisions with kitchen design, flooring, paint colours, lighting and furniture easy.
We love the way everything turned out! We also liked that she offered us different options keeping in mind our budget. We will definitely call on Dianne for advice on future projects.

I loved working with Dianne. She understood right away what I was looking for, and was extremely easy to communicate with, in person and by email — also really fast!
She has an amazing eye for colour, and both a broad and deep knowledge of what’s available.
I highly recommend her.

Dianne met our needs. She was creative, hard working and approachable.  She took our penthouse to another level. She made our place lighter and more elegant. She helped improve the lighting and make better use of our space. She added charm and taste. She worked with us to stay within our budget and suggested ideas which made a big difference in the decor. She was knowledgeable and very aware of what was needed. We would recommend her to anyone for her time, service and superior work. Thank you Dianne!

Dianne was recommended by a moving company specializing in helping people ‘right size’.  We were wary of Designers who made their disapproval of our taste clear (“very Forties”) and insisted we accept their ideas. I wanted my husband to enjoy the process and have his ideas accepted too. We were also concerned about the expense of a Designer ($1500 for a duvet cover! Really?)  We moved from a Beaches Tudor style house to a modern condo. Thinking that our furniture was not too large, we moved most of it. It wasn’t right; some of it was too small! But we didn’t know what to do.

 

Enter Dianne. By talking, visiting stores, looking at magazines, she developed an understanding of our taste and budget. This is always her goal.  It was fun! We kept the pieces that meant something to us. Then we chose tables, chairs, a headboard, and so on that fit with our desire for a more transitional look.  I thought I was good with colour, but could not imagine how to work with our Isfahan carpet. Dianne found the colours we liked.  The dining room chairs were exactly what we wanted – at a price we could afford.  She supervised the placement of our pictures, including the most important ones. It is not conventional, but it works. She found a place for them all in attractive groupings When we moved on the apartment looked so good the agent said it didn’t need to be staged, and a bidding war ensued.  The new condo was finished in a more traditional manner with built in wood cabinetry. The furniture looks perfect with it, all brought together by a wall colour Dianne suggested and people love when they walk in.  My husband and I really enjoyed working with Dianne, and thanks to her, are truly comfortable in our new home.

Dianne:  We would like to express our thanks to you in designing a beautiful room for our daughter, Mila.   From design to décor, your hard work, creative ideas and exceptional service have resulted in a room that my daughter loves to spend time in.  (The room is so pleasant that my husband and I love spending time in there too!)  We look forward to having you design our new son Evan’s room in the near future.  Thank you so much.

“When we decided to sell our house, we hired Dianne to help us get the house ready for the market.  Dianne advised us and provided practical recommendations to get our house ready to show.  Dianne came in and transformed the house by de-cluttering it and redistributing our belongings – we did not have to purchase very much.  When Dianne was done, our house looked like a model home.  The result was a serene and neutral home, ready for sale.  We received numerous compliments from visitors about how beautiful the house looked.  Needless to say, we were very happy with Dianne and her work.  She has a great talent for visualizing how our house should have looked, and our goal of selling quickly was realized.  Thanks again Dianne!”

I needed assistance selecting paint colours and fabrics for upholstery of several pieces of furniture and for window treatments in my home.  Dianne came highly recommended to me by a friend.  She chose paint colours and coordinated fabrics that were beyond what I would have ever put together on my own.  I love what she did for my home and I am enjoy its fresh new look.   Thank you Dianne for a job well done.

I had been having trouble selling my condo empty of furniture for months.  Changing real estate companies, my Agent suggested staging the condo and suggested Homefront Redesigns.  I met with Dianne for a consultation and we came up with a plan for furnishings and accessories in a style best suiting the space.  I must say that within a week Dianne had the furniture delivered, staged with accessories and looking amazing.  I couldn’t have been happier with the results.  My condo sold very quickly.  I would sure recommend Homefront Redesigns.

 

Joanne, Etobicoke

We had lived in our home with plain beige walls for four years.  In that time, we had acquired various pieces of furniture and art pieces.  We wanted to update the look of our home with a paint job top to bottom but felt that it was a daunting task to find great paint colours that would tie together our existing design choices and our home’s natural features (like bamboo floors, marble, wood cabinets and exposed brick).  Dianne provided a colour consultation that guided the choice of a wonderful colour palette for every room in our three storeys home.  She considered what we had and suggested unexpected colour  ideas that enhanced and boosted the look of every room.  We are delighted with the top to bottom transformation and feel like we have a warm and inviting home that expresses our style and personality.  We wonder how we lived with beige throughout for so long!  Thanks Dianne!

 

Kathy and Andrew, Toronto

We recently downsized from a house to an apartment, and we used  homefront redesigns to assist us with the layout, to arrange for painting throughout the unit, and to find suitable window dressings.  Dianne recommended and sourced recliner chairs and found, obtained, and installed a coat rack in our hall for us.  She was extremely helpful and dependable throughout the process, as well as prompt and efficient.  Her colour recommendations were excellent.  In all, we were most pleased with her service and would recommend her to anyone needing help with interior decorating.
