It was a great pleasure working with Donna on the renovations of our entire house. We were a bit worried about the project, given the scale of the work, budget, timelines and also we were in the middle of the pandemic. Our first meeting with Donna alleviated all our concerns and fears. We had met an expert, a professional, someone with patience and ability to listen, and to better understand our needs, our styles, and our constraints. She worked patiently and passionately with us to design the plan ensuring that our ideas are taken into consideration. Her design ideas, material selection were spectacular. She recommended an amazing contractor with true professionalism and attention to details. Donna's budget and timelines estimates for the completion of the project was bang on. She managed the whole project with amazing professionalism—always working with us to select materials, with gentle advice and guidance as needed- we never for once felt like we are asking too much. The whole journey was a delightful ride from beginning to end! Our house is not only brand new (from top to bottom), but Donna transformed it into a spectacular, majestic castle; an oasis beyond our wildest dreams! Everything is a perfect match! What is even more remarkable is the feeling we get when we enter the house. We are extremely happy with the outcome of this project. We highly recommend her as a designer and project manager- you will never be disappointed!

Donna was recommended to us by friends and we're so glad we connected with her for our bathroom and bedroom renovation, and our living/dining furniture selection for our new home. The initial consultation and design planning was a great starting point to see the potential of what our spaces could be. We had a relatively specific needs requriement with accessability, and it really was a seamless partnership with our input and Donna's expertise and vision. She worked with us through every stage, right down to ensuring our furiture was delivered and set up. She was very responsive throughout when we had questions, which gave us a high comfort level. Our family is very happy with how the project turned out. We love our home, and would highly recommend Donna to help you with yours. Thank you, Donna!

Throughout all stages of our project Donna was professional, friendly and positive, as were all the others who worked with her. She always listened to our ideas and was able to incorporate them into the overall design. She organized the multiple projects, inside and out, seamlessly and the final product is high quality and nicer than we ever imagined. Many many thanks Donna!

We are extremely happy that we hired Donna O'brien to design and over see the our kitchen renovation. Donna made the experience of renovating the kitchen less stressful. She was attentive to our wants and needs in our new kitchen. She open our eyes to rearranging our kitchen to be more functional as well as beautiful. I would highly recommend Donna for any renovation project. She is a pleasure to do business with. Thank you Donna. Love my kitchen.

I was so impressed with Donna that I employed her services again for a second renovation to my home. She has the ability to see the whole picture and her suggestions and ideas were very helpful. Her responses and follow up to the work plan and with any of my concerns was very timely. I am very pleased with the changes to my home and am definitely enjoying the results. I would highly recommend Donna.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Donna and her team of seasoned professionals! From the initial design phase of our large scale renovation, down to the smallest decor detail, we always had confidence in Donna’s expertise. The project was completed on time, on budget, but most important of all, we’re absolutely in love with our newly renovated family home and never want to leave!

We hired Donna O ‘ designs to redo our Kitchen, Living room,Dining room and Hallway as it was dated. We decided to get an interior designer as we knew very limited knowledge of what we could do and the different products available in the Markets today. We found Donna as she worked with my Fiancé years ago before going into the designing business and we ran into her coincidentally at Christmas and that gave us the idea to hire her and we are so glad we did. Donna was very pleasant and extremely knowledgeable about what products were out there and most importantly she wanted to make sure we were involved in every decision and were Happy throughout the process. The contractors Donna used were very professional and courteous and did a wonderful job on the entire renovation that we decided to replace our stair cases as well as re-doing our lower family room. Now that it is complete all I can say is WOW as it is beautiful. Donna kept us up to date on the progress as well as the costs on a routine basis. I would recommend Donna for any design work as she is very professional and we are extremely Happy with no regrets.

We recently had our kitchen and two bathrooms totally remodelled by Donna and her team, as well as a livingroom makeover. We have used her services in the past, and didn't hesitate to call on her once again for her knowledge and professionalism. She answered all our questions and we felt confident with her suggestions. She's an experienced designer, and was generous with her tips and always willing to go the extra mile to help. Donna manages all the trades within her team and everything is coordinated well. Everyone is very honest and respectful, and we never worried about leaving them alone in our home. We did experience a bit of a delay with our cabinetry, but once in, the quality was well worth the wait. We love our renovations, and would highly recommend Donna and her team who went above and beyond to assist us.

Hi,my name is Catherine and my husband and I recently completed a whole first floor renovation done by Donna OBrienDesigns Inc.Donna was referred by friends of ours. Our renovation is now done ,on time and we were overwhelmed by the finished product. Donna was very professional, met with her at least once a week and always kept our budget in check. Donnas subcontractors were very particular and precise about the details that went into their work. Anyone searching for a Designer we would most definitely and highly recommend Donna in a heartbeat . You will never regret your decision.

We are very happy to highly recommend Donna for any design project. We bought our house 8 years ago, knowing renovations were going to be essential. Our main floor was dark, and dated, and the idea of figuring out what to do was overwhelming. We looked at a few options until we met Donna. Donna was able to very quickly understand our needs, wants and taste and assure us our house could not only be updated but beautifully so. She not only delivered but exceeded our expectations. Donna managed the project, the contractors, design choices, and us, including navigating the inevitable surprises renovating an older home brings, professionally and with genuine care. Three bedrooms, living/dining room, bathroom and kitchen beautifully renovated. We would not even consider working with anyone else on any other project we may do.

It is with sincere pleasure that I write this reference for Donna O’Brien. After feeling overwhelmed with a mounting number of decisions to be made to complete our basement finishing project, and realizing that the wrong ones could lead to additional costs, I knew I needed expert assistance. I came across Donna through Houzz after browsing through many designers in my area and perusing through their completed projects. Donna’s projects instantly struck me as creative and functional and having that stroke of modern glam that I was looking for. Now, twelve months later I can confirm that this is exactly what came through in my completed project. She listened to all of my requirements and helped steer me in a direction that accomplished my vision without compromising on style, budget or function. Her customer service throughout was exemplary. Donna truly knew what I wanted even before I knew or asked both in terms of her designer touch and in securing and managing the trades to accomplish. Her enthusiastic personality added to my overall positive experience and I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. So much so that I am now looking forward to working with her on redesigning my main floor as our second project together. I can’t thank her enough and I can’t wait to see what we accomplish next!

I worked on contract with Donna O’Brien Designs on several project during 2015. She is a professional and hardworking individual with an amazing eye for design. Her projects were very well thought out which made my role in assisting her seamless. I learned a lot about the industry over the year and would happily recommend her as an interior designer and employer.
