Funktional Space Interior Decorating

Chantelle was absolutely wonderful to work with on our major main floor renovations. I had her over for a two hour consultation and she really listened to what I was trying to do and then helped me pull everything together. I was at a loss on how to tie together the new colours I wanted to use with an old fireplace focal wall we were keeping, unsure of the type of lighting I wanted to use and needed help with furniture pieces and decorating ideas. Chantelle calmly guided me into making choices that I loved. After a frantic phone call weeks later, Chantelle helped me solve a major flooring problem and gave me excellent advice on choosing a floor that was classic, but updated. Love the floor choice! Chantelle so graciously came back after another frantic phone call for an hour consult and helped me choose a backsplash that looks great in our new kitchen and helped me solidify other decorating ideas. Chantelle was so easy to work with, listened to my needs so well and took a lot of stress out of our renovations. Plus she saved us money with her recommendations and contacts! So glad I contacted her after a recommendation from a friend.

Excellent ideas. Enjoyed having the experience to sort through options and difficult design decisions. Would definitely recommend this company to other people. Thanks

We have had very positive experiences working with Chantel at Funktional Space. She is very creative and knowledgeable and gave us advice and assistance with various renovation projects including selecting paint colours, countertops, flooring, and window coverings. We strongly recommend Chantel and Funktional Space.

Chantelle's has genuine desire to ensure your completely satisfied and happy with your end result. Her knowledge and eye for detail is amazing. She helped us with our kitchen renovation. From design to picking out the details, made it fun and painless. Cannot thank her enough, nor recommend her enough. We have a few other projects for our 70's house and definitely will be getting Chantelle back in to help with those.

Chantelle has helped me pick out paint colors for the last couple of home renos we've done. She is very insightful & knowledgeable, both times she gave us many helpful tips for how to pull things together & had some very clever design ideas. She's super easy to work with & had a great sense of the look we were going for. Her input was really helpful!

I have hired Chantelle a couple of times to help with coordinating flooring paint and other design selections. We will be calling her again as our current project moves along . What I like most about her is how down to earth and practical she is. She provides advice in the areas that I ask about but does not try to sell me on things I don't want to do at this time. I can very confidently recommed Chantell at Funktional Space to anyone who needs anything from a paint color consult to a major redesign. . Maureen Smith-Windsor

For anyone thinking of, or currently working on a design project of any sort, big or small, Chantelle of Funktional Space should be the professional you choose to work with. She will walk you through every stage of the design process from the concept to the finished product, and will do so with a caring and committed attitude. After having the opportunity to work with Chantelle on a kitchen design for our new home, it was evident that by applying her knowledge and keen eye for detail, she could transform absolutely any idea into reality. Her expertise and creativity helped us design a space that we are truly proud of.

I had Chantal walk through our home after completing our reno's to assist with set up and design ideas. She was very easy to work with. She integrated my ideas with hers and did not make "my" room hers. She really listened to me before making her recommendations. We went together to pick out the pieces and she was respectful of my budget and tastes.

Chantelle is great at seeing what people are trying hard to create in their homes. She is very approachable...not at all a design snob. She gets excited about little projects as well as huge ones. She has experience, both professionally and in designing her own home. She gets it that your home is always much more than just a house people live in. It is personal. She is able to combine her work ethic and professional experience with her great skill at reading people and connecting with them. I highly recommend Chantelle!

Chantelle helped us with a kitchen Reno, she listened to our needs and wants and designed and provided us with everything we asked for and much much more. She has an amazing gift of knowing and understanding her clients and is able to create exactly what they want.

I get to photograph Chantelle's work on a regular basis. There are two aspects of her work that stand apart from the rest of the decorator's that shoot for. 1. she has SUCH an easy relationship with all of her clients. Professional, fun, laid back, I see people open up to her and really communicate what their needs and wishes are. 2. instead of leaving her "design mark" on each project she acts as a conduit for her clients ideas. Each space that she works on reflects it's owner in a way that that the owner could not achieve on his/her own.

Chantelle provided an in-depth consultation helping to plan home décor for years to come. With a young family in a new city it is challenging to vision what a space will look like in the coming years. Chantelle was able to describe step by step how to build those rooms as our family grows. She was so easy to communicate with, and exudes a warmth and passion for design. I am very excited to work with Chantelle again in the future.
