Our Story
AH Design Studio was established by Aki Hliaras, an architectural designer with extensive experience in design and construction. Aki's vision for AH Design Studio is founded on the commitment to providing a seamless and stress-free renovation process, where design not only enhances your space but also optimizes cost-efficiency. His journey in this industry began in 2013 as a construction worker, and over time, he earned a bachelor's degree in interior design with honors. He has been actively practicing interior design since 2018 and eventually founded AH Design Studio in 2020. What initially started as a side endeavor has evolved into a thriving team of three, supplemented by virtual assistants, and a portfolio boasting over 200 successfully completed projects.
In March 2022, we proudly inaugurated our own showroom in Pierrefonds, offering our clients an even more personalized experience for selecting and sourcing finishing materials for their renovations. Looking ahead, we have ambitious plans for further expansion in the years to come. We are eagerly anticipating the exciting journey ahead, and we invite you to join us on this adventure!

Aki
Hi! My name is Aki Hliaras,
I'm an architectural designer with an Honor's Bachelor Degree in Interior Design from Algonquin College.
As the founder of AHDS, my mission is to offer homeowners a comprehensive solution for the transformation of their spaces. I established AH Design Studio with the core principle of delivering a seamless and stress-free renovation experience. My objective is to create functional, upscale interiors that mirror your individual style and aspirations. Whether you're contemplating a renovation, an extension to your current property, or a new construction project, I can serve as your sole point of contact, guiding you from the initial discussion of your vision to the full realization of your project.
Having successfully completed over 200 projects in collaboration with developers and architects, encompassing new builds, commercial ventures, and substantial residential renovations, I've gained invaluable insight that underscores the importance of good design in resolving construction challenges. Armed with a comprehensive understanding of design principles, trends, Building Codes, municipal regulations, and construction practices, I am here to facilitate the transformation of your vision into a tangible reality.

Hi, I'm Ruby!
I'm Aki's spouse, and my role is primarily behind the scenes. I handle the planning, strategy, and management of all our social media platforms. My responsibilities include content creation, post scheduling, and coordinating before-and-after photoshoots when our clients' renovations are completed. It's during these photoshoots that I typically have the opportunity to meet our clients.
Additionally, I take charge of ensuring that we promptly address all inquiries from potential customers and follow up with those interested in our services.
If you're reaching out to us for the first time, you'll likely have your initial conversation with me before I connect you with Aki, our lead designer.
