My name means "happy child" in Japanese. I'm owner/lead consultant at Soulful Simplicity. I'm a mama to two beautiful and now grown-up girls, who keep me laughing at myself and at life.
I'm Japanese-Canadian on my father's side and Scottish on my mother's side. I grew with nature all around me and have always been passionate about art, design and the beauty of the natural world.
Influenced by scandinavian, Japanese and modernist styles, I'm inspired by spaces that are filled with natural light, simple and beautiful furnishings and just the amount of personal items that bring a sense of "soul" yet still allow the spaces to breathe. These kinds of spaces feel so good because with a harmonious balance of complementary elements and few obstructions, positive "ki" (life-force energy) can be amplified and flow freely.
My team + I love helping our clients get empowered and re-inspired by their surroundings - it's why we do what we do.

Découvrir Sachiko, La rencontrer et réaliser combien elle est empathique, à l’écoute, d’un professionnalisme incroyable couplé à une présence douce et apaisante ... La voir travailler avec énormément de passion de plaisir et un sourire constant... Après son départ tout est et reste lumineux, clair, agencé et logique... Ce n’est pas juste votre espace en tant qu’intérieur qu’elle« nettoie et agence », mais quasiment votre « moi intérieur » aussi ...
