A considered approach,
from first ideas to final details
Sublime provides professional interior design and furniture and decor services for luxury residences, multifamily developments and select commercial environments. Our work may include space planning, finishes, fixtures, lighting, millwork concepts, furnishings, artwork, window treatments and finishing details, according to the needs of each project.
Interior Design addresses the planning and design of interior spaces, including selected built elements, materials and finishes, and applicable drawings or specifications. Furniture & Decor focuses on the furnishings and finishing layers that bring those spaces together, such as furniture, lighting, rugs, art, textiles and accessories. The two services may be engaged independently or as part of a coordinated design experience.
Our three service levels offer different degrees of engagement rather than fixed, one-size-fits-all packages. Diamond is our most comprehensive and integrated experience; Platinum offers a tailored approach to substantial or selected design needs; and Gold provides focused design concepts and consultation for select clients and projects. The appropriate level and its precise inclusions are established in an individual proposal.
We begin by learning about the property, your aspirations, timing, anticipated investment and desired level of involvement. From there, we recommend a service approach that balances creative direction, technical needs and the degree of design support appropriate to your project.
Furnishings, Expertise AND Next Steps
Yes. We can curate furnishings and finishing elements for completed homes, newly purchased properties and selected individual spaces. Services may encompass furniture, custom pieces, art, lighting, textiles, window coverings and styling, as appropriate to the project.
Furniture sourcing and procurement services may be available, including selected ordering and coordination of delivery or installation. The scope, pricing, product terms and responsibilities are confirmed through the proposal and applicable purchase documentation.

Our work is guided by timeless proportion, distinctive materials, understated luxury and purposeful living. Rather than impose a signature formula, we interpret each client’s individual vision, lifestyle and architectural context to create spaces with enduring character.
Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Sublime considers projects locally and in other locations according to the project scope and our availability.

Working Together
Ideally, early in the planning process—particularly for custom homes and significant renovations. Early collaboration can help align interior layouts, finishes and furnishings with the architectural vision and anticipated construction requirements.
Yes. Collaboration is central to our process. Depending on the engagement, we coordinate design information and consult with the client’s architect, builder and other appointed specialists. Construction management, site safety, permitting and trade supervision remain with the responsible parties unless expressly agreed otherwise.
Your preferences guide the process. We establish decision points and an appropriate communication rhythm for the project, keeping you involved in meaningful selections and approvals while tailoring our design support to the agreed services.
We discuss budget considerations early and use them to inform priorities, selections and design recommendations. Project costs are influenced by scope, construction conditions, product availability and other third-party factors; estimates and budgets may evolve as details are confirmed.
Timelines vary with the complexity of the design, approvals, construction schedules, product lead times and the pace of client decisions. We discuss anticipated milestones during project planning, with specific commitments addressed in the applicable agreement.
