“Interior Designer Beverly Horii, managing director and principal at the Toronto Office of IA Interior Architects, says her firm uses almost the exact opposite approach as Brunn: “We don’t like to have the big unveil presentation. More and more these days, we are collaborating with our clients, as well as with vendors and contractors, in work-shopping sessions, so that they are all part of the process. Clients often can’t define exactly what they need right away, so I believe it’s only in the process of collaborative iteration that you can uncover these things.”
