Hibou Design & Co.

What Hibou Design & Co. does

Hibou Design & Co. is a privately held, Montreal-based luxury interior design firm co-founded in 2015 by Eugenia Triandos and Korina, offering full-service residential design and turnkey renovation coordination for high-net-worth homeowners in Quebec and surrounding markets. The practice operates on a professional-services fee model with quote-based pricing scoped per project after complimentary discovery calls; service lines include comprehensive interior design, renovation management, decor and furnishing, and remote virtual design packages delivered by mail for clients outside Montreal. The firm's portfolio spans single-room renovations through full gut renovations of large single-family homes, including custom millwork, bespoke cabinetry, curved plaster staircases, and custom steel architectural features, supported by a curated network of general contractors (Trelli Construction, Archetype Construction, Redstone Group, Nform Construction) and specialty trades across cabinetry, parquet flooring, and metalwork.

The company's go-to-market relies on direct field sales, in-home first consultations, and an active content and PR presence on Instagram, Pinterest, YouTube, Facebook, and an editorial blog, complemented by features in National Post Luxury Living, Cottage Country Magazine, Toronto Sun, Ottawa Sun, and Montreal Home Magazine. Distribution occurs through direct sales (in-home consultations and virtual packages) and the Hibou Home retail boutique and e-commerce store at shophibou.com, which extends the brand into curated home goods and a physical café. Brand identity was refined in partnership with agency Caserne to align visual language with the increasing scale and refinement of delivered projects.

Hibou is entirely founder-owned with no external investors, parent company, or funding rounds disclosed. Operations are concentrated in the Montreal metropolitan area and Quebec, with headcount of 11–50 employees and a single headquarters at 1 Chabanel Ouest, Montreal. The company's stated value proposition centers on "livable luxury" — managing the entire design-coordination process including on-site presence during key phases to remove the burden of contractor and trade management from clients.
