'Empowering people with the ability to invest wisely into their homes while uplifting their communities and the environment with beautiful low impact designs.' I am Chantelle Hamilton, the founder of Lichen + Stone in Ottawa, Canada. I have always been passionate about taking care of people and the planet. Originally, I studied Biology to become an expert about our planet and all who reside on it. However, I was missing the people side of things and was feeling a little confined to a lab. After searching for a career that combined my passions and strengths of science, art and drama, I discovered that Interior Design was my calling and returned to school to get my BAA Interior Design. After, working as a designer and project director with various companies for over a decade, I established Lichen + Stone in 2022. I love working with my clients and helping them discover solutions for their home that will elevate their lifestyles. It is humbling to help clients make good decisions for the planet while they shape a home that speaks to them. Lichen + Stone creates beautiful uplifting spaces that infuse calm and clarity into your day, allowing you to focus your energy where you want it to be. When home feels easy, we have more space in our lives to do good for the world.
