About Brenda
“A well designed space enhances aesthetic appeal and promotes well being.”
Meet Brenda, founder and principal designer at BD Interior Design. The California native turned Toronto resident, brings her educational background in mental health to her interior design firm.
After practicing for over 5 years as a Mental Health therapist, she established the interior design firm in 2017 to continue helping clients, by way of design.
Design with purpose
“My love for Ghanaian textile is incorporated in my use of color. The fabrics are bold and vibrant and convey a story. Similarly, the spaces I design tell a story about my clients.”
Born in Ghana and raised in California, her colorful background and coastal lifestyle is demonstrated in her design aesthetic. The spaces she designs are soothing, functional, joyful, and just right for her clients.
She prioritizes neutral colors, natural elements and playful pops of color. Projects range from home staging, residential design to commercial design.
