“There Is No Alternative?”: Re-designing design education

2 weeks ago | canadianinteriors.com | Peter Sobchak

“Can the scenario of Canada becoming the 51st state be considered a design problem?”One of my design students recently asked this, raising a critical question: what is design’s role within the crises we are facing?

Designing with Identity: Elevating Brand Presence Through Interior Spaces

3 weeks ago | canadianinteriors.com | Peter Sobchak

Design isn’t just about how a space looks—it’s about how it makes people feel. The most successful interiors go beyond aesthetics; they tell a story, evoke emotion, and create a lasting impression.

But in this landscape, some brands are meeting the moment by offering affordable alternatives to luxury: high-quality products at reasonable prices. It’s the kind of value that shoppers are increasingly seeking.
Class Acts: Brides and Jewelery

With affordability such a hot topic these days, how are designers navigating their clients’ desires for luxury retail? A look at two recent projects, Château d’Ivoire in Montréal by Archi-, and The Modern Bride in Guelph, Ont. by Urbanus Interiors, demonstrates that the eternal rules of retail merchandising still apply.
