Federal Brace's Spotlight Blog : Devane Design

Chantal Devane is an award-winning designer in Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Since 2003 she has owned a full-service interior design firm, specializing in interior design and kitchen & bath remodeling.

Devane Design offers a more classical appeal approach with a focus on the client’s needs. The company does mostly kitchen and bath remodeling. Chantal considers working with her clients to be a partnership. She’s always looking for new ways to do things, taking from the old and making traditional designs fun and exciting. She wants her clients to love what they have.

As early as 8 years old Chantal's designing nature was appearing. She would move around furniture in her bedroom trying to get her living area just right. By the time Chantal entered high school, it did not surprise her friends that she wanted to be an interior designer. She had a certain artistic eye and she was always doing arts and craft projects.

Now the designer has worked on both sides of the country, which gives her a lot of variation in her work. She loves what she does and she honored to work alongside great companies like Federal Brace. Her ability to help fulfill her client’s needs is something she recognizes in Federal Brace.

“My role as an interior designer is to identify your needs and define your vision, while helping direct you through the design process. My ability to identify the needs of the homeowner is something I see in the varying designs from Federal Brace,” Chantal Devane, Devane Design.

Remodeling

Remodeling involves major changes that may take your kitchen in a whole new direction. A remodeled kitchen is what you're up to if you need to change the whole "footprint" of your kitchen to add space or reshape the room for better views or better access. While your existing home's size and site will affect how radically you can change your kitchen, you can make surprisingly big changes.

Remodeling doesn't depend on what your old kitchen looked like, only on what your needs and wishes are and what your budget dictates. New built-in appliances and cabinetry, new windows and skylights, a new eat-in area or home office niche, a family room/ kitchen combination, and more -- anything's possible with remodeling.

Where to put the Kitchen Island?

The National Kitchen and Bath Association(NKBA), recommends that you have a 36″ clearance in traffic areas and 42″ clearance in the work area of your kitchen.
