Gill 3D Design Video
Greetings,
Hope you all are well!
Please see the below 3D design video. This client needed building permit services along with the concept to help with materials, finishes, furniture, and accessories. This really helps if the client wants to go off on their own for purchasing, project management, and specifications as it gives a great visual for those design elements. If you need any interior design, building permits, floor plans, consulting, or advice please feel free to contact us at info@imanstewart.com
2022 Design Trends
Every year we hear designers talking about trends and see the hottest design mags publishing them. For me, I’m not really a trend/fad person as I love to stumble upon things organically evoking a certain feeling when it comes to design whether it be fashion or interiors.
When we started researching 2022 design trends, I couldn’t help but notice we were on par with these trends, call it a Designer’s Intuition, ha! From bold colours, (what we are known for) to statement sofas and zoom rooms. I would agree that some of these so-called trends should stay around a little longer. Please see below for our 2022 Design Trends.

5 Expert Tips on Staging A Home: A Designer’s Edition
As a child, I knew I wanted to be a designer. I was fascinated with the whole aspect of design whether it be architecture, interior design, or real estate. Over my 15 years as a designer, I have been exposed to commercial and residential design with the opportunity to stage 1 bedroom condominiums to million-dollar homes; I have seen a lot.
Decorating Around A Furniture Piece
Our most recent bedroom decor project is a great example on how to decorate around a furniture piece that you are not willing to compromise on. For Project Pryce that was the situation when it came to the headboard. Our client loved this piece and it was a relatively new purchase he wanted to incorporate within the design. From there I was inspired by the colours and patterns found in the rug.

Latest Staging Project
I had the joy of taking on a staging project from one of my fav realtors, Dionne Witter. I am very select with the realtors I work with and Dionne always allows me to have full creative control and it is such a pleasure to be around. The client was located in Toronto with Jamaican heritage and was ready to sell in hopes of returning home. Please head over to my Instagram to see the before photos as this home was in need of a facelift, especially to reach our goal of selling under 30 days, over asking and to the right buyer).

Inviting Colours in Your Home
The weather has been quite a drag to say the least…. I’ve been travelling to escape the rain and as I result, I’m followed with more rain south of the border and in the Caribbean. What do they say? You can run but you can’t hide? lol all good, lesson learnt! With all that aside, now is the time to brighten up your home with spring colours especially to cheer you up on these rainy days. I’m currently swooning over pinks, florals and airy spaces – all in that order. This can be done with colour, texture, and prints in all the right places utilizing: paint, window treatments, hand towels, decor accents, etc.. Below is a recent project where I was able to highlight my love of popping colours incorporated with a neutral colour scheme. We kept the main colour scheme with neutrals as it is an income property and did not want to throw off any potential home owners.
