Decided to engage Ascend Design again after the satisfied job on another space. The designer was responsive with meetings and was able to quickly understand the demands for the space. Designer was meticulous on the details and was able to recommend solutions based on the requirements of the project. The young designer was able to recommend styles and colors that can transform the regular dull office space into a vibrant work space. Excellent workmanship and quality within the budget. Designer was very responsive and helpful with minor touch ups even after the renovation was completed.

It’s been 6 months since my partner and I moved into our new home, and we are still raving over the amazing work Althea from Ascend Design has done for us. Althea was our designer, and Emmanuel was our project manager. From the very first meeting, Althea won us over with her warm personality and endless patience, making the entire design process an absolute joy. What sets Althea apart is her unique talent for understanding a simple brief and then expanding it into a world of possibilities. By asking thoughtful questions about our lifestyle and preferences (and our cat!), she designed a home that not only met but exceeded our expectations. She effortlessly breathed life into our vision, presenting us with ideas we hadn't even considered. As first-time homeowners, but she gave us unbiased tips on what to look out for in terms of functionality, the pros/cons of certain designs, etc – which in hindsight was extremely helpful. Althea's attention to detail is simply remarkable. She doesn't just design for the present; she thinks two steps ahead, ensuring that our home will not only look beautiful now but will remain functional and stunning for years to come. Her ability to foresee potential challenges and solve them preemptively is truly impressive. Her adaptability and willingness to implement changes as we went along were greatly appreciated. Communication with Althea and Emmanuel was seamless throughout the project. They kept us informed with timely updates, and assured us of the progress every step of the way. This level of transparency and dedication put our minds at ease and allowed us to fully trust them with our home. We are absolutely thrilled with the end result, and our friends love coming over even more now because of our beautiful place! Althea's creativity and expertise shine in every corner of our house, creating a space that is both functional and visually stunning. If you're looking for an interior designer who combines a warm personality, exceptional attention to detail, fantastic communication skills, and an ability to transform your vision into a reality, Althea is the one. We wholeheartedly recommend her, and we're grateful for her incredible work in making our dream home a reality.

We had followed Ascend Design for a good while even before we got our home and have always liked their designs and style. When we finally got our unit we went around speaking to a few IDs but eventually went with our gut & selected Ascend as our ID after speaking with Alfred & Renhao, who was our ID & project manager respectively. We were pretty clear in terms of what we want and needed to know what was necessary in terms of execution & also space planning as we had an old resale flat with quite a bit of work to be done. Some IDs we spoke to shot down our ideas for design without offering a solution, nor was willing to entertain ideas that were quite foreign to them. Alfred and Renhao listened and told us what could and couldn’t be done very professionally & worked the best we could with the budget we had. They also proposed designs that we would otherwise have not thought about, have a good eye for colour palettes and style, and were very responsive throughout. There were a few situations that arose throughout our renovation of 3 months, but we would truly like to thank Alfred & Renhao for taking everything in stride and being professional and communicative throughout. It has been a bit of a long journey, with a few bumps here and there, but we are truly grateful for an ID firm that have left us with nothing but a GOOD taste in our mouths, (and our home! ;) ) instead of a sour one - which we were so afraid of initially after hearing so many ID horror stories from various people. All this to say, we highly recommend Ascend, Alfred & Renhao & team! Thank you guys, we love our home! Caleb & Ting

A ton of interior design firms these days present very similar portfolios, but Ascend always brings a little something different to every project. Our designer, Audrey, and project manager, Yan Hao, were extremely helpful in providing recommendations to help elevate the look of our entire BTO. For instance, we wanted arched French doors in our living room and Audrey recommended placing curves along our kitchen’s entryway as well for a more harmonious look throughout the house. Shoutout to Yanhao as well for being extremely meticulous in checking for painting imperfections and arranging for rectifications even after the renovation was complete. Highly recommend Ascend and the team!
