DISCOVER THE VISION BEHIND STUDIO SIXTEEN’S ARTISTIC APPROACH TO INTERIOR DESIGN
OUR STORY
OUR PASSION FOR CREATING UNIQUE AND FUNCTIONAL SPACES THAT REFLECT YOUR STYLE AND PERSONALITY
We’re Lauren and Josh Klassen, the husband-and-wife duo behind Studio Sixteen Inc. While we’ve been officially working together for about five years, in reality it’s been a full-time partnership since the day we said “I do.” With nearly 100 projects completed side by side, our journey has been built on creativity, craftsmanship, and a whole lot of love.
What started as Lauren pursuing her love for interiors and Josh leaving his teaching career to bring those visions to life has grown into a business built on creativity, quality, and heart. With Josh’s deep respect for true craftsmanship and Lauren’s eye for thoughtful, inspired design, we’ve built a company that blends beauty with integrity. Together, we’re a powerful team; designing spaces, building dreams.

Frequently Asked Questions
All the details, all in one place.
With a design-build company, the design and construction teams work together under one roof from start to finish. This integrated approach ensures constant collaboration, meaning the vision, budget, and timeline stay aligned throughout the entire process. Since the designers and builders are in sync, potential issues are identified and solved early, keeping the project moving smoothly. The result is a streamlined experience and a seamless execution, without the gaps or miscommunication that can sometimes happen when hiring a separate designer and contractor.
The timeline varies depending on the scope of the project, but we will provide a detailed schedule and keep you updated throughout the process to ensure the project stays on track.
Costs can vary depending on materials, labor, and the complexity of the project. We work together with the client to establish a budget and provide a detailed estimate before starting the work.
Our design process is highly collaborative. We work closely with the client to understand their vision, lifestyle, and priorities. From the very beginning, our design team is in regular contact with the build team to ensure every concept is both functional and feasible. This open communication means your ideas are brought to life in a way that not only looks beautiful but also works seamlessly in practice.
Renovations often uncover hidden challenges, but we discuss any issues or changes with our clients immediately and provide options to keep the project on track and within budget.
Yes! Most renovations require permits, depending on the scope and local building codes. Our team will handle the necessary permits and paperwork to ensure everything it up to code.
You’ll be an important part of every stage. We’ll walk you through key design details so you can feel confident in every decision. Throughout the project, we’ll schedule on-site and virtual meetings to review progress, answer questions, and gather feedback. You’ll also receive regular updates so you always know exactly where things stand.
Depending on the scale of the renovation, it may be possible to live in your home, though certain areas may need to be closed off for safety or convenience.
At Studio Sixteen, we offer more than just design and build, we offer an experience. From the first conversation to the final reveal, we focus on creating a process that’s as enjoyable as the end result. We pride ourselves on providing a seamless transition from design to build, exceptional craftsmanship, and a flawless execution that brings your vision to life. Guided by our philosophy of “Designing Spaces, Building Dreams,” we ensure every detail is thoughtfully considered and beautifully delivered, so your home isn’t just renovated, it’s transformed.
