Testimonials
Barbara Smyth is the most hardworking interior designer that I have worked with. Barbara is very talented and she works so well by listening to her client’s needs and incorporating the latest trends so that the final design work is perfect. She is knowledgeable, creative, professional, and has an excellent work ethic. Over the last number of years, she has helped me out with various design needs such as selecting lighting and plumbing fixtures, flooring, window treatments, wall colour, kitchen and bathroom designs. It has been a pleasure working with Barbara and I look forward to working with her again in the near future.

One of the challenges of our new brick, post and beam space was its open concept. Knowing that we were working with a limited budget, Barbara was able to deliver a design plan that accentuated the architectural features of our space without breaking the budget. These included seemingly simple or small things that were less expensive to implement but enhanced our space much more than the expensive solution. She has that eye and ability (you might say that "je ne c'est quoi") to look at a room and know precisely how to make it look and unction better. Her services were absolutely indispensable to us. We got tremendous value for money.

Quand nous avons pris la décision de réaménager nos bureaux, nous avons fait appel à Barbara Smyth. Barbara a agi avec beaucoup de subtilité en tenant compte des goûts des employés tout en ne perdant pas de vue l’image unifiée de nos bureaux. Son sens de l’innovation et de l’esthétique nous a impressionnés, tout comme sa relation à l’espace, aux matériaux, à la lumière, aux couleurs et aux objets. Avec un dévouement constant, elle a apporté une substantielle amélioration à nos locaux en adéquation avec notre budget.

When we decided to remodel our office, we had no idea how complicated and time consuming the project would become. Hiring Plan Bleu Architecture + Interior was the best decision we've made. Not only were they able to handle all aspects of the project, their ability to lead us in the right direction, so to balance out our desires with budget, was a life saver! Hiring Plan Bleu, saved us more than just time and energy, we actually came below budget! For us it paid to hire professionals!

Barbara Smyth helped me designing a new interior for my home in two occasions, once for a big house and then for a studio. I was impressed with her ability to understand my vision of a new home as well as my needs. Intuitive, creative, respectful: three qualities that I really appreciated. It was a real pleasure to have Barbara helping me in creating a new home within my budget while reflecting who I am.

It was a pleasure working with Barbara to design our Downtown hair salon. Because that salon is on the second floor we were concerned about the lack of street level visibility but her design made the salon a visitable showcase at the corner or Burrard and Georgia. Her design for the backbar area and Colour Bar are so striking we always get rave reviews by everyone who enters. She helped us maintain the synchronicity between design and function while helping us create a harmonious environment for both staff and clients.

Plan Bleu Architecture + Interior had provided us with a wide range of services that had helped us resolving many logistic problems encountered during the expansion project of our Cafe Bistro. Barbara and Pierre not only provided us with high degrees of expertise, knowledge and discipline, but furthermore, we had found that their genuine level of energy and dedication to their work was very stimulating and even addictive. In the end, we got what we wanted, a great design solution for our restaurant expansion, but we also got a great experience and learn much during the process.

We have hired Plan Bleu Architecture to provide us with re-zoning services for our sub-division project. We have found this architectural company to be of extreme help to us due to the particular issues we were facing. Due to their good communication skill, their honesty and true professionalism we felt very confident and the process we had to go through became a learning experience that was even pleasurable. It is important to be in good hand when facing unusual business experiences...
