Testimonials


“Angela designed the interior of our laneway home. She was a calm and knowledgeable resource in a hectic time. We had several sentimental antique pieces that she seamlessly incorporated into a new build. To this day, Angela has been incredibly helpful with finish up… absolutely above and beyond.”

“Angela and her team were such a pleasure to work with. They transformed our old outdated 1980s looking ensuite bathroom into a bright, modern, and functional space. They were so in tune to our needs to make sure the bathrooms was not only pretty but worked with how we intended to use the space. She and her team made the process less stressful and we always felt at ease with her prompt communication and updates.”

“A. Riley Design has been the driving force behind all of our renovations. Her knowledge has been impressive and her advice has always been right for us. I was reluctant to hire a designer at the start of our renovation but after working with Angela, I have now realized how important it is. I would not have been able to do this without her. Thank you for giving us such a functional kitchen in a small area! Everyone loves [our] 9’-0” peninsula! Thank you!”

“Angela is a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job on our condo! We moved into our presale 2 years ago and hadn’t really done anything to it. Our bedroom was full of items that had been given to us, most of which were old Ikea pieces that were falling apart. Not only did Angela help us navigate new furniture and decor, she also helped maximizing the space in our closets. She put together some truly professional engineer/architect level drawings for built-in closets that really helped us envision what the new spaces would look like. We were shocked at how affordable everything was and have fallen in love with our condo all over again. I would highly recommend Angela’s service to anyone looking for any level of interior design work.”

“We had the pleasure of meeting Angela Riley about two years ago when we were undertaking to build a house through Upward Construction. Angela has a very bubbly personality, my husband and I hit it off with her from the start. She demonstrates the ability to professionally discern a client's wants and needs. Some of our requests may have been vague but she was able to provide us with a concise course of action in planning our home to suit our needs. We worked with Angela from the Summer of 2015 at the design inception through to the working drawings. She was helpful in guiding us through the process of the selection of materials including plumbing, lighting, and cabinet choices as well as colour palette. She has a professional eye for what works and what does not and had the ability to humour and concede when we wanted to add some quirkiness to give the house our personal stamp. We would highly recommend her services and know that she will be successful in whatever design challenges she undertakes.”

“Angela worked wonders in our home, transforming our 90s rooms into beautiful, current, and timeless works of art. Not only is Angela talented, she is also truly a pleasure to work with. Angela was quick to listen and adjusted her plans and finish selections to suite our likes and dislikes and was also a great communicator who answered emails promptly, and scheduled just the right amount of meetings. We are confident you’ll be happy if you use Angela to design any or all of your home!”

“We were fortunate to be referred to Angela by a good friend in the home renovation business. He described her as level headed, with a great eye for practical solutions with outstanding visual appeal. He could not have chosen a better description. Throughout our time working with Angela she has proven an astute listener, and she does not hesitate to ask questions until she knows exactly what you’re looking for.

Prior to our renovation, my husband and I had very little experience in renovations and decorating our home. We didn’t have any particular vision, though we knew what we did not want. Based on a few conversations, Angela was able to pull together samples for us that reflected our tastes beautifully. The finished product is polished and clean, yet warm and welcoming.

We have been thrilled with Angela’s work ethic and knowledge from the very beginning. When I needed her to be hands on, she was there. If all that was required was a quick email, her responses were prompt. We would recommend her time and again to anyone, whether you’re an experienced home renovator or novices like us!”
