Studiokimi Interior Inc.

Working with Kookdo was probably one of the best experiences I've had. This is the first time we needed an architect and designer for a renovation project. We were highly impressed with Kookdo's knowledge on working with city permits and his creative design to maximize the space in smart way with storage and a really great flow. I highly recommend Kookdo and Studiokimi Interior Inc. for your design and renovation needs. Kookdo was always professionally dressed, prepared for all our meetings. He followed up regularly and kept us in the loop on all the progress. If you want to feel like you have a partner who wants the best for your project, without feeling pressured or rushed to jump on anything, I strongly urge you to connect with Studiokimi Interior Inc.

We are beyond happy with the interior design of our café, Café Atelier! From the very beginning, the team carefully listened to our vision and brought it to life with so much attention to detail. The result is absolutely beautiful and stylish—our customers often ask us who did the design, and many of them compliment how gorgeous the space looks. Thanks to their work, we feel so proud to welcome guests every day. We truly appreciate their professionalism and dedication throughout the entire process. Highly recommended!

I had an amazing experience working with Kookdo and studiokimi on designing and renovating my home. They paid so much attention to detail and were incredibly professional and efficient throughout the process. During the design stage, they were so patient and truly listened to my ideas. They revised their designs over and over until every detail matched my vision perfectly. Their dedication to understanding my needs and ensuring everything was just right made all the difference. From the start, they addressed all my concerns and went above and beyond to make my dream home a reality. Having them as my designers saved me so much time—no endless hours shopping or second-guessing materials, appliances, or bathroom fixtures. They didn’t just give advice; they offered real hands-on help to ensure I picked the perfect pieces within my budget. Even after the renovation was complete, I noticed some painting details I wasn’t satisfied with. They came back promptly to fix it, showing their commitment to delivering perfection. I’m so thankful for their hard work and dedication. My home truly feels like a dream come true, and I couldn’t be happier! If you’re considering their services, I can confidently say they are trustworthy and do exceptional work.

We purchased our home at the end of 2021 and knew that we wanted some renovations done. We didn't have a contractor that we generally worked with so we began an online search. Our initial interest in working with Kookdo was his design eye which was evident in the quality of the work that he had completed for others. Kookdo redesigned our kitchen, mudroom, and entryway tiles that ran throughout the main floor. He worked with suppliers to source quality products and included us in those discussions and face-to-face meetings. He was available every step of the way and was flexible with any changes we requested during the process. Our kitchen renovation began in December 2021, during the height of supply shortages and global shutdowns but he managed to prioritize our work. The kitchen turned out beautifully, better than we could have imagined. It's become the hub of our home and the most complimented by visitors. I was very happy with the quality of work and level of detail that Kookdo provided so we scoped out another project within the house. Kookdo worked with us to re-design our basement bathroom to accommodate a walk-in sauna. He has a team of trades that he works with that looked after all the different facets of construction (ie. plumbing, electrical, drywall, etc.). The end product turned out spectacular and the sauna gets a lot of use. Overall, it was a great experience working with Kookdo and his team. His pricing was competitive compared with others but the real value-add was having a General contractor that is also an Interior designer. That combination leads to a beautiful end product with quality craftsmanship. I would definitely recommend him, and I look forward to working with him on future renovation projects.

Had both condo bathrooms fully renovated. Was very happy with results and all renovations were completed on time. Would recommend Studiokimi to any friends or family looking for work going forward.

We had a great experience working with Kookdo Kim. They did an excellent job designing the front area of our medical clinic, making it both welcoming and professional. Highly recommended!

Kookdo was easy to communicate with, responsive and very respectful. We would recommend them for anyone looking for design help, even with smaller-scale projects.

From design to execution, everything went very smoothly. Team is respectful, hardworking and flexible. Stuck to the schedule. No drama!

We recently undertook a massive renovation project for our 4000 sq.ft. house, and we were fortunate to have Kookdo as our designer and project manager. From start to finish, Kookdo's involvement was instrumental in transforming our vision into reality, and the entire process was nothing short of a delight. One of the standout features of working with Kookdo was his incredible design skills. His drawings and 3D visualizations were not only aesthetically pleasing but also remarkably intuitive. This aspect allowed us to visualize the proposed changes and make well-informed decisions throughout the project. Kookdo's ability to translate ideas into detailed plans ensured that every aspect of the renovation aligned with our preferences and lifestyle. What set Kookdo apart was his comprehensive understanding of construction. It was evident that he wasn't just a designer on paper but someone who actively engaged in the construction process. We often witnessed him on-site, not just overseeing the work but getting hands-on with his tools. This unique combination of design proficiency and practical construction knowledge instilled confidence in us, making the entire renovation journey seamless. The peace of mind we experienced while working with Kookdo cannot be overstated. His proactive approach, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering quality results were evident at every stage. Communication was smooth, and he navigated potential challenges with expertise, ensuring that the project stayed on track and within budget. We would highly recommend working with Kookdo and Studiokimi!!

I recently had my kitchen renovated, and I couldn't be more pleased with the entire process and outcome. From start to finish, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. They worked closely with me to understand my vision and offered creative solutions. The design they created not only maximized my space but also made it feel brighter, more modern, and functional. The renovation was smooth and efficient. The crew was punctual, respectful of my home, and kept everything as tidy as possible throughout the project. I highly recommend this team for anyone looking to transform their kitchen. Their craftsmanship, customer service, and expertise made this renovation experience a breeze, and I’m so happy with the results. Thank you Kookdo!!!
