IDS TORONTO

Exhibiting  for  three  years  alongside  Canada’s  best   at  Toronto’s  INTERIOR DESIGN SHOW ,  John  has  showcased  a  design  range spanning  rustic  to  classic.

IDS 2009  showcased  yacht details,  including a boat-front console table with a wave-patterned floor inlay.  All of these details showcased the intricacies of John’s design ability, from bespoke flooring to high-end furnishing details.

This vignette captures the essence of yacht design in interior architecture. The ship's bow console table was hand-laid with walnut veneer, then topped with teak and holly decking, and a suspended glass. I designed a wave-patterned inlaid walnut floor to grace my boat console table with teak and holly deck and suspended glass. All of these elements are inspiration for wonderful interior designs

 

IDS  2010  showcased ‘Split Personality’.  The same styled wall panels were juxtaposed: one rustic pine; the other,  refined mahogany.  Carved sconces on the rustic side were juxtaposed to crystal sconces on the other.
