Jane’s favourite thing about working at Gateway is creating theme designs such as Contemporary, French Country or Log Cabin and challenging the custom woodworking capabilities of the Gateway shop. The talented team of cabinetmakers never cease to amaze her with their workmanship. They allow Jane and the rest of the designers to work with their clients and be very creative with their designs.
When not at Gateway, you will find Jane spending time with her family at the cabin or on the soccer field.

PAUL PETERS
Being native to Winnipeg, I have always found inspiration from both classical and modern design while wandering through her many districts and parks. The city provided an art gallery experience for viewing historic and modern architecture and landscape design. This exposure developed into a love for creating beauty through gardening, landscaping and creating aesthetic and function in my spaces and surroundings.
After pursuing an engineering degree, I applied my creativity to engineering projects for a variety of industries and developed skills in project management. I excelled at space optimization and improving function and aesthetics in my projects.
As a past time, I would refine my spaces through renovation and landscaping while also providing design services for people planning home build or renovation projects. “I draw satisfaction from helping people view their space differently, in order to create spaces that inspire, while resonating with a person’s style preferences and function requirements.”
Navigating the range of design and product choices today is often challenging and I enjoy assisting people in planning and executing their projects to a satisfying completion.

Chloe joined the design team in 2021. The opportunity to oversee new projects allowed her to see and understand the design process from all angles. She has used this knowledge to help shape the client experience and keep her projects organized.
“My goal is to find a fresh approach to building beautiful and functional spaces with my clients. I love listening to ideas and exploring the possibilities together.”
