Johnson Chou Design

Terrible design firm that I would avoid at all costs. Johnson Chou butchered the lobby reno in my condominium so bad, it looks atrocious. He used a mish mash of materials and designed a curved wall that looks ridiculous, especially considering the entire lobby is straight lines. You would think that with a 400k budget it would look amazing, but it looks way worse than before. Custom stainless steel material was fabricated and after installation it looked like crap, was removed and ended up in the trash. The tacky lighting is truly hilarious — neon multi colour lights that resemble an 80’s nightclub or a strip bar. What a huge waste of owner’s money! I am shocked a professional design firm was hired as the layout and finishes are brutal, and the generic cheap-​looking furniture selected does not even fit the space — it has already been moved around several times. And the final kicker, the reno began over two years ago and it is still not even close to being complete. The lobby at the at the Thompson Hotel Residences has been a construction zone for two friggin years and counting with exposed electrical wiring and unfinished walls! Do not hire this amateur or you will be very disappointed. Everyone I have talked to thinks the lobby is hideous. Johnson Chou should definately win an award for the longest amd ugliest lobby reno known to mankind.
