The Spotted Frog Designs

Delighted. We would absolutely will use The Spotted Frog Designs again if given the opportunity. Huong has been wonderful to work with. She has a professional and methodical process that led us through what I would consider an extensive renovation of our living space. She guided us ever so slightly out of our comfort zone giving us design options that we didn't even know were possibilities. We were honestly blown away by the creativity and attention to the details. We have never done a big renovation before and were very nervous about obtaining a contractor. Huong was able to introduce us to contractors that had executed her designs in the past. This gave us confidence that we would be in good hands. We are sincerely thankful and would recommend using Huong and her team in a heartbeat.

We loved working with Huong at The Spotted Frog on our first project back in 2013, so we did not hesitate to ask her again for our second project which was completed in 2023. Huong listened to what we envisioned and then elevated that beautifully to reflect our lifestyle through her design expertise. Last year, we decided to complete a full renovation and decorating of the main floor of our home which included a brand new kitchen, great room, home office, main bathroom and entrance. We knew Huong's incredible talent and experience in addition to her articulate communication would be valuable in our renovation journey. Our personal style has evolved since the first project so we trusted she would incorporate that and we love our new look! She assisted us through every minute detail, making an otherwise overwhelming process actually enjoyable. Her extensive knowledge of construction and finishing materials, her designer aesthetics and amazing taste, her well organized design process and professionalism was a perfect fit for our family. I loved her warmth and humour as well. We highly recommend her and The Spotted Frog for anyone that wants a beautiful and functional space that you'll be proud of!

We couldn’t be happier with our kitchen renovation and would highly recommend our designer Huong from The Spotted Frog Furniture Co. Huong is patient and firm and knows us now better than we know ourselves! She reigned me in a few times and pushed us out of our comfort zone many times to deliver an exceptional new kitchen layout and design for our family’s needs. She first spent the time to understand these needs, providing just enough options and variety so we could make our best choices. Working with Huong made a stressful renovation fun, (fairly) easy and ultimately very rewarding! She instilled confidence, trust and reassurance every step of the way.

Huong from The Spotted Frog brought our dreams of a sophisticated, romantic primary bathroom come to life. From the start to finish, Huong was available and enthusiastic and helped us pivot through supply issues. Her design skills are inspiring and I can’t wait to enlist in her services again for the next project!

This is our second project with the spotted frog. We used their service six years ago for the renovation of our previous house. We purchased our new place last year, and without hesitation, we went back to them again for this project. Huong is a delight to work with. She pays attention to the every detail. She is trustworthy and inspiring to work with. We’d recommend her to anyone and everyone.

We own an older Condo and we wanted to update our master bathroom. We had a poor experience with a previous designer, so we were apprehensive about undertaking another project. Fortunately, we met with Huong and we were very pleasantly surprised how easy it was to work with her. She exceeded our expectations. Huong created a very positive design experience for us; which became the foundation for a great remodel. Huong is very personable, reliable, knowledgeable, understanding, professional and honest. She was attentive to my husband's and my ideas and desires for the bathroom design. She was collaborative and respectful of our design choices and provided appropriate alternatives and options to insure we obtained the look we wanted. She was able to take what we thought were 'problems' and refashioned them into beautiful solutions. She regularly communicated with us throughout the project and insured we were always well informed. She provided us with very professional design materials, timelines, drawings and paperwork. We were impressed with her impeccable attention to detail and how hard she worked to insure our design needs were met. We are very happy with the results of the remodel and we love our bathroom. Overall, We would highly recommend Huong's services and we would hire her again if we had a future project.

I have used Huong and the Spotted Frog Design team on 3 separate projects. Most recently is our 100 year old character home renovation. The other two renovations consisted of a 70’s home and a early 2000’s craftman style house. For each project Huong worked with us to understand what our goal is for the renovation. She gets a sense of what style and look we were aiming to achieve. She also worked with us to understand the objective and function for each room. With style and function in mind, Huong presented different design options utilizing materials suited for our budget. Huong is our go to person for anything interior design related. We are constantly tapping into her knowledge and experience in not only design but home builds and renovations. We couldn’t be happier with the results and definitely would recommend to anyone looking for an interior designer.

Working with Huong was an absolute dream. This was our first renovation experience and she made it so fun and manageable. Having her attention to detail and product knowledge was invaluable to creating a home that is not only stunning but practical. We look forward to working with Spotted Frog on future design plans.

Huong completely transformed the look, feel and use of our living space for our family. Since our space was on the smaller side, we did not think there were many options to reconfigure our layout. Our initial hope/expectation was to have Huong give it a bit of a modern update. Huong walked us through the process and even encouraged us to think through what the next few years was going to look like for our family with two young kids. She provided us with some creative options and gave her expert opinion on our concerns and kept us focused on our end goal. We now have a completely different layout from before and our family is enjoying our new space. Huong succeeded in incorporating all our wants in her design. Our space is now much more functional, bright, organized and its beautiful! Huong was easy to deal with throughout the entire process and she was always available to answer our questions. We are very happy with Huong's service!

My wife and I decided to renovate our entire home in January of 2019. We have always desired to have a French vintage/accent home. We, therefore, decided to engage an interior designer to carry out this adventure. After we shortlisted a few interior designers in our local cities, we engaged Ms. Huong, the principal of Spotted Frog, to lead us through the adventure. Throughout the design and construction process, we found Ms. Huong was full of ideas and visions in keeping with our theme. She provided us with an abundance of design elements and ideas throughout the various spaces of our home. She has been patience, friendly, and easy to work with. She was proactive with suggestions but yet willing to listen to our imagination. We are particularly impressed with the general layout of elements and spaces, the color scheme of each room, and the gorgeous tile patterns throughout our home. As a side note, our project manager and a number of sub-trades of our construction team were also impressed with the overall interior design of our home. We finally moved back into this gorgeous home in December of 2019. We are very satisfied with this French vintage/accent gem that we are living in now. We highly recommend Spotted Frog for their interior design expertise.

My husband and I are thrilled to share our experience working with Huong Nguyen, Founder & Creative Director of The Spotted Frog Furniture Company. After years of dreaming, and walking through Huong's beautiful boutique furniture store in the quaint Steveston Village in Richmond, BC, we finally decided to buy some new furniture pieces for our home that we had aspired to purchase for years. The problem with bringing new and beautiful furniture into an unrenovated space is that you suddenly feel like you have to renovate; and so began our journey which GREW by the day and month!! It was an absolute pleasure to work with Huong. Her goal is not only to create your dream spaces that are stunning, but also ones that fit your family's lifestyle. She does not believe in suggesting products, styles, materials or designs that are purely for design sake; they must serve a purpose and represent your family's unique taste. She was very quick to redirect us if she thought that what we wanted would not hold up to our expectations over time because it was not a durable or practical option for a family with three older teenagers. We valued and appreciated her candid and professional opinions. Furthermore, Huong was always just a quick phone call, email or drive away. She was never too busy to answer a question, or to go over something again, if and when we were rethinking or overthinking a choice. She met our contractors on-sight at times, and if she wasn't able to, she was available by phone to speak with the contractors in a crunch situation. Huong made us feel like she really cared about our project and that she wasn't just trying to sell us products and services for her benefit. She was personable, reliable, confident in her suggestions, and detail-oriented. Huong was a great listener who heard what we loved and wanted, and really executed a plan that paired with our dream wish-list. The Spotted Frog offers services and products that follow the most up-to-date trends, with their own special touch. If we chose to renovate more of our current home again, we would not think twice about using Huong's creative design talent and The Spotted Frog.

When we decided to renovate our house, we had absolutely no idea where or how to start. Luckily for us, we discovered the services of The Spotted Frog. With the help of Rachael, we were able to revamp our outdated family room and powder room. More recently, The Spotted Frog helped us renovate our family bathroom and the results are stunning. We have been so happy with their ideas, attention to detail, and customer service.
