Igloodgn goes West
Big news from Montreal-based interior design and branding firm Igloodgn (igloodesign.ca/) – pronounced “Igloo Design.” Lead designers Anna Abbruzzo and Alain Courchesne recently revealed that they’ve been invited to attend Interior Design Show West 2013 as keynote speakers.
Interior Design Show West 2013 takes place at the Vancouver Convention Centre West Sept. 19-22. Abbruzzo and Alain Courchesne will present two separate speeches on site: one on the topic of “Designing and Branding Your Business”; the other their main-stage speech “Maximal Minimalism – The New Canadian Aesthetic.”
“It was a great honour to be given these two major opportunities for an event like the Interior Design Show West,” says Abbruzzo. “To participate as keynote speakers over many other respectable and suitable interior designers means a great deal to us. Alain and I are prepping a phenomenal presentation to really bring life to the IDS West stage. Our design projects, both commercial and residential, are known to aesthetically intrigue. We are opening a direct window for the IDS West audience to provide them a direct view in to our interior design style, viewpoints, and how we treat each project with the utmost care and attention to detail.”
