Kathleen Janssens, Arch Tech
Interior Design Consultant
As a trained Architectural Technologist, I began my career with an Architect and then moved to the City of Edmonton in Engineering. For the past 10 years, I’ve worked with Design Build Firms, focusing on new builds, infills, and renovations in Edmonton and surrounding areas. I love designing kitchens and living rooms, where much of family life happens. I have a keen eye for balance, practicality, and functionality in both interior and exterior spaces. My specialty is creating 3-D renderings to help clients visualize their projects before construction. My favorite design style is mid-century modern, and I dream of restoring a mid-century property with a modern twist.
