Interior Designer in Richmond Hill
Richmond Hill runs from established streets near Yonge and Major Mackenzie out to the larger lots of Bayview Hill, Oak Ridges and the ravine properties along the moraine. The residential work here skews large and frequently custom, with houses built or substantially rebuilt to the owner’s brief — which makes it one of the places where interior design has the most to contribute early.
Ravine and sloped lots
Ravine properties bring their own interior consequences: split levels and half-storey changes, walk-out basements that function as primary living space, and rear elevations almost entirely glazed. The interior has to be planned around the view and the light rather than treating them as a bonus — and around the level changes, so that the everyday routes through the house stay short and comfortable rather than a sequence of stairs.
Custom and rebuilt homes
Where a house is being built or rebuilt, we work alongside the architect and builder from the drawing stage — proportion, light, joinery, circulation — in the way described on our custom home design page. The earlier we are involved, the more of the interior is still open to shape.
Commercial interior design in Richmond Hill
There is genuine commercial activity along the Yonge corridor and around Highway 7 — offices, clinics, showrooms and retail. We design commercial interiors in Richmond Hill as well as residential: spaces planned around the people who work in them and the customers who arrive, documented properly, and built as designed. See our commercial interior design page and how a commercial project runs.
How we work in Richmond Hill
On a custom or rebuilt house we are most useful early, reviewing the architectural drawings for how the home will actually be lived in — the routes between the kitchen, the table and the terrace; where morning light lands; how the level changes of a ravine lot are handled so that daily life does not become a series of stairs; and how the walk-out level becomes real living space rather than a finished basement. Joinery, lighting and services are coordinated with the builder before framing closes.
On an existing house, and on commercial space along the Yonge corridor, the method is the same in a different order: how the space is used first, then plan, light, joinery and palette, documented so that what is drawn is what gets built.
