Who We Are

About Our Interior Design Firm

We are an innovative team of designers, certified as Maria Killam True Colour Experts. To say that we are creative would be a cliché – but it would also be correct. Hibou Design & Co. has been featured in Les Idees de Ma Maison, Montreal Home, Montreal Gazette, La Presse and Style Me Pretty. Based out of Montreal, but with clients in many countries, our projects have ranged widely in size, scope and budget and we work in sync to bring the best in our combined backgrounds, education and experience to make your space suit your needs and lifestyle. 

One of our most important goals is to make our clients’ design project as easy and stress-free as possible by foreseeing and preventing common problems that result in wasted time and money. 

But what we really want to see is, when we leave a room, that the entire space has been pulled together and transformed into something beautiful — and beautifully functional.

She has workshopped with some of Canada’s leading designers and colour experts including Maria Killam in 2016, when she received her True Colour Expert certification. Her unequaled attention to detail ensures that no corner of any home is unused, wasted or neglected. Combined with her unerring eye for colour, shape and texture, this has allowed her to create charming, warm interiors. “I love overcoming the challenges you may be faced with, whether they be budgets or tricky spaces,” she says. “I get so much satisfaction when we finally come up with solutions and clients love them.”
