Jennifer Harris - I have an obsession with interiors, and how people interact in these spaces. I have studied and consult regularly on the rules / Ontario building codes / that apply to structures that strive to make these places safe. But they often stifle creativity, and human dignity along with it. Design needs to be a part of the discussion from the very beginning, for everyone no matter their means. “Because once you see what design can do, it can’t be unseen.” Architect & Author, John Cary.
Matthew Feitelberg - Good design is a right, not a privilege. Thus should be the guiding principle of all those who enter the design world. Design can be an outlet for our inner most desires, temptations, and needs, yet frequently these are discarded in favour of quick returns and fast profits. Since I began my career in architecture I have strived to find a balance between the need for quality design and practicality. Good design can be felt in your heart; it is a feeling that envelops and permeates the soul, and it is my goal that everyone should understand what that feels like.
