Marina Pavlova is a first-generation Canadian who immigrated from Kazakhstan with her parents in 2006. Her first career was in IT as a backend developer, where she wrote and tested code, cultivating a keen attention to detail. Experiencing the GTA real estate market surge, her family moved 15 times in 12 years. Each move was an exciting adventure as they transformed our new homes to reflect their unique style, sparking her love for interior design.The design of a new construction home in the GTA was the final catalyst in deciding to leave her job in tech and pursue her passion for interior design.

Marina’s family settled in Ottawa at the end of 2018 and from there, she returned to school and received certifications in interior decorating and staging and finally joined CPI in early 2019.

Marina loves spending time in her garden with her husband, cooking with her daughter and son,  and enjoying the outdoors with her adorable puppy.

What Her Clients Say:

Marina and her team are THE best! After only 1 meeting with her, we knew that she understood our needs, ideas and concepts and made us comfortable enough that we trusted her to take on the task on our family room design project. After a while, we decided to seek Marina’s help again to help with our main bedroom and again everything was done with exceptional attention to detail and on time. We will highly recommend Marina if you are looking for a top-notch designer to make your room/house looking like a piece of art!

~ Elena, Kanata

We enjoyed the experience of working with Marina to reimagine and renovate our living room. Marina’s holistic concepts and design ideas set us on a strong direction. We appreciated Marina’s ability to listen and to reflect our ideas in the plan. Marina’s bold colour plan made the design particularly interesting and appealing.

The quality of the work produced by the subcontractors that Marina employed was excellent. There was clear communication on scheduling or plan alterations during the construction process.

We were very pleased with the final result. We appreciated Marina’s final touches with complimentary artwork and organization.

~ Bruce Smith and Frances Roberts, Ottawa

I recently sold my house and downsized to an apartment. I don’t know what I’d have done without Marina’s help. She is extremely competent, cooperative and always readily available. I had no idea how to furnish my new space. Marina took measurements and pictures and came back with perfect suggestions, incorporating my existing furniture wherever possible. Her input made the whole process stress free. Now that I am settled we are still working happily together with final touches. I have no hesitation in recommending Marina to my friends.
