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.

Our offices are conveniently located in Montreal, at 1 Chabanel, O., where we not only provide exceptional design services but also offer a welcoming storefront and a café where you can stop in, enjoy a coffee and browse our signature design collections at Hibou Home,
