FOUNDERS
FRANKIE CASTRO
Creative Director
Frankie is passionate about creating functional, ergonomic and beautiful kitchens and bathrooms. After a successful career dressing windows for Holt Renfrew and designing stores for Linda Lundström, she shifted her focus to “clever” custom kitchens in 2002 (and has since designed more than 100 of them). As a working mother, she understands kitchens are the centre of the home – not just places for cooking and eating, but also socializing, homework and hobbies.
“My unique ability is combining contemporary design and aesthetics with the practical requirements of real life. I really believe a balance must be struck between the two – and that’s a challenge I love!”
JOHN BOZIC
Director of Operations
John is a renovation expert dedicated to exceptional workmanship.
With more than three decades of experience as a contractor for both commercial and residential projects, he understands the pain points of renovations and is committed to making them as stress-free as possible for Square Footage clients.
“We hold fast to our schedules –
this helps people manage their lives.”
