Anthony works in a strategic, thoughtful, organized process which has helped our business apply for both Development and Building Permits for an existing build. It is challenging work navigating existing old/new permits we had but Anthony has patiently worked with the City to meet both our needs and the City's. We look forward to working with Anthony on the the next phases of the Building Permit. More...

Anthony was responsive to our requests and questions. He assisted us in completing an architectural package that smoothed the way to getting our building project for our business approved by the City of Calgary. He operated within the scope of work as we requested. More...

Reply from Left Hand Architecture & Design Inc.
Hi Chris. Thanks for your feedback. We are sorry that we were not able to help you with your house. As you can understand sometimes communication is not "perfect" between parties and things do not "come together " as smoothly as we ideally would like them to. We will use your dissatisfaction to be better in the future. Is there anything that we can do to make things right ?
What’s your interior design process?
Process is important to us. We focus on learning about our Clients and building relationships with them. Relationships lead to trust (on both sides). Every Client is unique and learning about each Client paves the way for a healthy working dynamic. This is important given the length of projects.
Which interior design styles can you cater for?
We can do any style. However our favourite styles are Modern and Contemporary.
What do you love most about your job?
The experience of seeing a satisfied Client at the end of a project and knowing that we've been able to help them achieve their goal !
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was employed for many years and was blessed with a newborn son. My wife and I weren't sure if we would be having any other children and I wanted to be involved in his life. I wanted the flexibility of being able to make my own hours and to be there for my sons needs.
Why should our clients choose you?
We listen to our Clients and we are genuinely invested in their success. We do not see things as a "one-of", but rather as an opportunity to build long-lasting relationships that are mutually beneficial.
