Meet Brittany Kochen
Founder & Principal Designer
Design has always been part of my life. From rearranging furniture as a child to earning my Interior Design Diploma at BCIT, I’ve spent over a decade bringing homes to life. My approach is simple, every space should be as livable as it is beautiful, and a true reflection of the people who live there. With experience spanning top design firms to historical preservation, I founded Dash of Light to create homes that feel personal, timeless, and deeply connected. Having been born and raised in Ladner, it brings me so much joy to help families in and around my own community design homes they love.

Words From Our Clients

Dawn, Custom Kitchen Design
“I hired Brittany to design us an updated and functional kitchen. I provided her with my ideas/inspirations and she came back with a design and materials that was my dream kitchen. Brittany was easy to work with and we are so happy to have had her with us along during this renovation.”

Kelly, Custom Home Renovation and Furniture Selection
“We first collaborated with Brittany while doing a renovation of our home. She was incredibly easy to work with. She was attentive and communicates well. Her presentation of concepts made decisions seemingly stress free. From the selection of paint colours, flooring options, lighting, bathroom cabinets and fixtures she delivered a new space we didn't imagine we could have! After the initial renovation we utilized her expertise in furniture selection. She was able to provide us with a design concept that maximizes our space as well as provides us with comfort. We are extremely grateful for her assistance with our renovations.”
