TESTIMONIALS:
Residential and Commercial
To whom it may concern;
I have used Debra Thompson Colour Consulting on both residential and corporate projects. In each and every case she has proven herself to be forward-thinking, creative and detailed in her work. Exploring, uncovering and expressing a clients vision for either a residential or corporate space requires talent, flexibility and strong communication skills. Debra has demonstrated these attributes in each of the projects she has fulfilled for us. She has an artist's sensitivity to colour, whether in paint, fabrics or furniture. She possesses a comprehensive understanding of the influence and impact that colour and shade create in both indoor and outdoor environments.
I would not hesitate to use Debra Thompson Colour Consulting in the future and highly recommend her for any project you may be considering.
Please contact me if you require any further information.
Sincerely,

INTERIOR LOFT RE-VAMP
ROD KEARY, OF PREMIUM SPORTS LTD. wanted to move his staff into a bigger, brighter space and chose a loft in a heritage building in "Old New Westminster" on Columbia Street. He had a vision for the space and proceeded to remove old drywall to reveal many original brick walls, which he had acid washed to enhance their original look. Rod then asked me to come in to specify colours for the space and add decorative enhancements to make the large space feel more comfortable for his staff.
This is what my client sent to me when we had finished decorating the space:
Debra:
Well girl, you nailed it. Your assistance in transforming this old tired loft has been nothing short of amazing. Your mission was to make the space both functional and fun for myself and my staff and you did it. You are truly knowledgeable in what you do and your enthusiasm while working was contagious. The staff are happy in their new environment (and also more productive) and the landlord is so impressed he is always bringing by guests to see the difference a professional touch can make.
Thanks once again for everything!

EXTERIOR/INTERIOR COLOUR UPDATE
Jules and Gordon hired me to help them choose a contemporary colour for the exterior of their new home plus guide them through some short term interior colour changes to tide them over until they do their larger interior renovation. This is what they had to say:
“One of the greatest things about hiring Debra is that her knowledge and flair provides you with the confidence to move forward with your project. Debra’s expertise helps you to see the overall picture of the room and helps you define what you would like to achieve. She helps you to make a colour connection with your art work, flooring and textiles. Her vision takes you beyond “just picking a colour”. Debra is a pleasure to work with and we have received numerous compliments on our new exterior house colour. We are very grateful to Debra and she is well worth the investment of hiring a colour and design consultant.”

MOVE-IN CHIC ON A BUDGET!
My client Dara had just moved from a house into a high rise and had purchased a few new pieces of furniture. She needed help making her new aparment feel welcoming and like "home".
"I had just moved to a new apartment, had purchased new furniture I was happy with, but it was all very neutral and my living room, office, and bedroom desperately needed some decorative touches and colour.
Knowing that was Debra's specialty, I hired her to consult on a strategy for my apartment. She worked both within my budget and the space brilliantly. She first suggested colours that would tie the bedroom and living room together, and compliment the existing furniture. We then shopped both together and apart, with Debra choosing wall art, pillows and other finishing touches.
Debra's strength was in assessing my unique situation, taste and budget, and gracefully guiding me to accomplish my goals! She showed flexibility and a range of knowledge that could clearly be applied to any size of project.
I couldn't be happier with the result - the bland space now looks dressed up, and it was a hit when I showed it off to my friends at a recent housewarming party! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend consulting with Debra if you're even just thinking of adding to or changing your decor, or redecorating entirely!

INTERIOR COLOUR DIRECTIVE
Kathryn asked me to help her do a colour makeover for her new rental home. Kathryn is not shy when it comes to colour, loves art and really wanted to turn her "rental beige" colour scheme into a colourful home that suited her very colourful and warm personality. I was very happy to help Kathryn achieve her goal.
I was looking for a complete makeover in colour for the interior of my house. It had been painted a very dull beige throughout and I was looking to bring a lot of colour into my home. The palette also needed to play up, but not overwhelm, my art collection. The makeover was to include all the wall and ceilings with different colours in each room, and they all had to be harmonious. Debra Thompson proved to be a very good listener, and understood the direction I wanted to go. Debra is friendly, has a good eye, and was extremely helpful with her suggestions. We are happy with the outcome and I highly recommend Debra Thompson as your colour consultant.

SHE DOES IT ALL!
My clients called me to help them update the exterior 80's look of their beautiful expansive Burnaby home. This is what they have to say.
My husband and I hired Debra Thompson of Debra Thompson Colour Consulting for advice on changing the paint colour for the exterior of our house and we were very pleased with the results.
As well as consulting with the exterior house colour and outdoor furniture and planters, Debra has also helped us with the interior of our home, giving us advice regarding paint colour, furniture placement and advice on new furniture purchases for our bedroom and family room. We also needed colour direction for new slip covers for our accent chairs and colour advice for accent pillows and artwork purchases and art work placement. Debra also gave us further advice on what window treatments would look best and what type of area rugs would work.
We have found Debra to be friendly, competent, professional, and reliable. We are very pleased with the results of the choices that Debra has helped us make. It has given us increased confidence in making interior design choices in the future, as Debra has a way of teaching as she advises.
I would highly recommend Debra to anyone who is looking for professional direction in updating or restyling their home’s interior or exterior.
