What We Do

Your vision, our design expertise.

Paint is one of the most difficult design choices for most people to make. It seems to be scary. However, I always say “it’s just paint!” There are many shades of white, the color trend right now, and that’s where Sinclair Slone Design can help make the decision less stressful and find the ‘right’ white.

We use well known, top quality paints like Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams fan decks to choose the perfect color for your space.

Paint is the least expensive design change that makes the biggest difference!

Sometimes you just need someone else to see what you look past and help you create a space that once again you love. Suggestions of new light fixtures, adding tile for a backsplash, rearranging the furniture, changing up the color palette for a more cohesive look, the addition of quartz or granite countertops, the development of a basement, window treatment options, or an addition to your home can make your space exactly what you desire. This can be the first step to our journey together for your project or a discovery of what you can make work for yourself.

Many of us love color, but not necessarily the same color. So when the owners decided to sell this unique home, the color was left the way they loved. However, after 2 years of not selling, in a higher end market, it was time to do something different.

Sinclair Slone Design was able to come in and help. The client chose a color to update most of the main floor areas, change out countertops to quartz, change most of the lighting and plumbing fixtures throughout the home, paint vanities and the kitchen island to a current desirable color and change doorknobs, and add décor to create a warm, modern, and desirable space. These updates and staging brought an offer the day it was listed for sale!

Whether it be a bathroom expansion, a basement development, a company’s new office space, or an entire new home, Sinclair Slone Design can help you create the perfect space – beautiful and functional.

Knowing proper distances for spacing, looking at the minute details to make the big picture work seamlessly, and creating the spaces YOU want and need, are part of what makes a space plan design so important. Working with a plan, that can show furniture layouts, electrical and plumbing locations, proper sizing for future living needs, and décor options, sets good expectations and makes the process less stressful. Often a few version changes are required, but better on paper than after walls have gone up.

The modern office is nothing like those of the last century. Today employees work more casually, with spaces to meet and collaborate away from their desks, break out spaces that can make them feel like it’s summer in the middle of winter, colors to brighten their mood, biophilia for increased productivity and replenished focus, conveniences of open spaces but also areas for private calls and chats.

Today’s office spaces are more like an extension of our homes, but they still need to be designed for productivity. Ergonomics, desk configurations, optimum sizing for traffic flow, universal design for washrooms and general movement, all need to be part of the picture. The combination of great function, and a welcoming and comforting space, employers and employees alike benefit.

Design can be anything from some new light fixtures to an entire new house needing ALL the elements to create a finished home. With so many choices, and options within the choices, it can be overwhelming and frustrating. By the end of a project, you just keeping saying “whatever”. But afterwards you’ll wish you would have had help to make your place truly your style.

Design needs vary greatly from project to project. SSD works collaboratively with you to serve where you need help, provide options based on your input, and share information on pricing and availability of final choices.

Design, and construction, is often a bigger process than most people think. I always tell my clients “it’s exciting in the beginning and you’ll love it in the end but be prepared for some frustrations in the middle.”

A show home is a place to go and experience new – new color trends, new fixture styles, new ideas, new function, and new uses of spaces. This show home had soaring ceilings at 22 ft, a 9’ wide fireplace in the living room surrounded by yellow leather wrapped panels. The metal sculpture between the entry and living room was designed for the space and is one of a kind.

The gorgeous, wow factor entry, has a magnificent chandelier, a floor pattern unique to the space, and a rounded wall that hides an entry closet.

The master ensuite is pure luxury, with a custom vanity with hidden storage in the corner accessible from both sides, a deep soaker tub with a see-through fireplace to the bedroom, a 10’x10’ glass enclosed shower, and touches of a color that speaks elegance – Tiffany Blue like wallpaper for the spa calm.

Blinds and shades are like the jewelry or lipstick as the final touch. They not only add the shade and heat blocking you need but enhance and warm up your space. With so many options, cell shades, honeycomb shades, transitional and roller shades, outdoor roller screens, and varying functions, this too can be daunting. In addition to blinds and shades, drapes and panels can help pull a space together and look fantastic. SSD can help direct you to right choice for you.

Outdoor living space too can have the comfort of indoor living by providing shade and bug protection to your patio living space. There are many operation choices – manual to weather-controlled movement, protecting you and your items.
