Our Team
SAMANTHA S. SANNELLA, BFA ID, M ARCH
As the Director of Strategic Planning of Urban Retreat Homes, I consistently seek orginal solutions that fit both the client budget and style.
I developed Urban Retreat Homes as part of my practice, because I saw a need to provide a better experience for clients during the renovation/new build process. Striving to help relieve the stress of the homeowner, I utilize skills honed during my years in commercial design and construction.
My current work includes architectural and planning strategy, design, programming, scenario development, financial modeling and conceptual design. Additionally, I teach part time at Ryerson University at the School of Interior Design, The Chang School of Continuing Education and write for RENO & DECOR magazine. I am also the editor of Ontario Design Source Guide.
I focus on developing realistic budgets for clients, designing concepts that work torward those budgets and delivering the best possible design and construction services for cients. Whether you are building a new home, renovating or flipping/selling your home, I can help. By priorizing items that have the best return on investment, I can help you spend your money wisely.
From the very first meeting to the photo shoot at the end of the project, I am with you every step of the way! Let's create your Urban Retreat Home together.
