<p>Danielle’s expertise has focused on hospitality and corporate design projects. Danielle is a strong team leader whose range of experience includes design concept development, space planning, working drawings, custom millwork details and site management. Her attention to detail, excellent organizational skills and great client relations makes her a great asset to the SGH design team.</p>

			<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><b>Approach</b></span></p>
<p>From a young age, creativity was always my strong suit. My passion for interiors developed when I would flip through the architectural magazines lying around the house and draw my own floor plans, a hobby that I never grew out of. These days I draw inspiration and joy from exploring new places, live music, cooking and making sure not to take myself too seriously.</p>
<p>One of my favourite parts of our industry is the human connections we make, not only with our peers, but with our clients. I think this is one of the most important parts of our process, creating a level of comfort and making the project that much more enjoyable.</p>

<p>I’m passionate about working together and overcoming obstacles. I believe the best outcomes are achieved through connection and understanding. At its core this process is why I fell in love with design. I love the process of creating something tangible and watching it realized as a sum greater than its parts. I aspire to push the boundaries beyond what is expected. I am a constant bouncing ball: always thinking, learning, forecasting what is next, and striving to exceed the status quo.</p>
<p>That drive has taken me across Canada, moving from Alberta because of a strong desire to work in a city where it all happens. I’ve been fortunate to work as part of a national team with a variety of clients across Canada.</p>

<p>After years of working in design, I am still passionate about workplace design projects. Every project is an entirely new story – an entirely new opportunity for learning, and for creatively applying design skills.</p>
<p>I’m driven to creatively problem-solve and to focus on ways to streamline and synthesize our work as project complexity and the pace of project delivery increases. I enjoy guiding teams, and enjoy the process of collaborating with clients and consultants to find the best possible solution that incorporates all the parameters. Seeing projects successfully completed and working together on a collective goal is very rewarding.</p>

<p>As a creative enthusiast, Lara manages all marketing, communications, and proposal initiatives across Canada. With a bachelor&#8217;s degree in media production and a background in screenwriting and sales management, she brings a unique blend of creative direction and visual storytelling to every client touchpoint. Lara approaches each marketing opportunity as a tailored story, designed to inform, grow relationships, and leave a lasting impression.</p>
<p>Collaborating closely with studio leads in Toronto, Halifax, and Vancouver, Lara supports business goals by integrating PR communication practices with a focus on SGH&#8217;s presence in workplace, hospitality, and residential design. She plays a key role in implementing this through thoughtful proposals and by helping shape the firm&#8217;s identity in each local market.</p>
<p><strong style="font-weight: bold;">Approach</strong></p>
<p>I believe that a strong, cohesive portfolio is one of the most powerful marketing tools in any industry. That&#8217;s why I&#8217;m constantly working to evolve graphic standards and design stories, recognizing that no two projects or clients are ever the same. Seeing my ideas come to life with strong visuals, is something I enjoy both in and outside of work. When my content strategy lands clearly and is understood, it all comes together, and that&#8217;s the best part.</p>
