Nancy George - Interior Design Faculty

A highly diversified interior designer of residential and commercial spaces, Nancy strives to design functional and creative spaces that elicit positivity in the client or user’s day. She believes that every space is a workspace for someone and that is why she is driven by her passion to make each space as unique, functional, and worthy of her discerning stamp.

Nancy earned a Foundations in Design Certificate, graduated with a Bachelors of Applied Design in Interior Design at Kwantlen Polytechnic University, and completed a certificate in Advanced Project Management at Langara College.

With over 25 years of extensive education and hands-on experience from initial design concept through to construction and project completion, Nancy has an innate attention to detail. Being raised in a family-run clothing manufacturing business, she developed an eye for quality in the details. Even details that look simple are in fact, very detailed in workmanship, quality of materials, and simplicity of lines to achieve that “Simplistic” appearance.

After working for some of the most reputable design firms in Vancouver, Nancy pursued the more challenging ordeals of design and construction management. As a lead consultant coordinator and project manager, she focuses on managing the detailed tasks required to execute a successful project. She identifies and foresees potential construction and logistical issues through risk assessment, that may affect the overall budget and project deadline.

Successful projects begin with a comprehensive understanding of the client’s needs and expectations. Nancy’s ability to understand her client’s needs based on developing a relationship of respect, trust, and confidence has been the key to her success as a designer. She has a unique approach which she credits to her perspectives – rather others’ perspectives. Meaning, to better understand her clients, other professionals, and trades, she often puts herself in their perspective which allows her to communicate more effectively. Nancy believes that building a solid, trusting, collaborative relationship with all stakeholders is the solution to a successful project.

Nancy’s proudest moments as an instructor are when she sees her students exceeding their own expectations.
