IDC Member Project ⭐️ "Sublime Harmony" by Gel

IDC Member Project ⭐️ "Sublime Harmony" by Gelanaz Hemati of @gelanazassociates.

"This house perfectly harmonizes a family’s need for functionality with the artistic vision and aspiration of the owner. The interior of the house is focused on creating balance. Based on our design, we transmuted raw materials to create an exceptional look through the details. Right material choices have had a great impact on creating the luxury spirit of the spaces. In our book, luxury doesn't have to be expensive; it’s all about making the right choices.

We looked after those small details that create the feeling of being at home, and this is the way in which we give each house a unique touch. We viewed spaces in a home as being similar to family members - each is different, but they are all part of a big picture."

A quote from Nora Young’s keynote presentation at IDC’s Design Symposium titled “From Big Data to Your Data: How Data-Driven Technologies are Shaping the Future”. Learn about the impacts of these shifts at the macro level of the economy and society, but also at the personal level, in our health, and the jobs the next generation will be moving into.

If you missed this year’s IDC Design Symposium, IDC has made the memorable keynotes by Michael Ford and Nora Young available for members as continuing education units (CEU). Both presentations account for one IDCEC hour each.

IDC Member Project ⭐️ "Lim Goldsmiths" by Troy

IDC Member Project ⭐️ "Lim Goldsmiths" by Troy Dashney of @bolddesigninc

"When Lim Goldsmiths approached, they brought with them a couple of key objectives. Firstly, they wanted to create a unique jewelry shopping experience where the goldsmith room would be visible to all shoppers, just like an open-kitchen restaurant. A second objective was to create a space that felt intimate, provide design details that would complement and help elevate the feeling of the jewelry within the display cases which in turn could help turn showings into sales.

While function played a significant role in this project, so did the design concept. Every detail was meticulously thought of. A neutral tonal wood palette of stained white oak, with complimenting luxury vinyl flooring is accented by the use of both polished and brushed gold and brass tone metals by highlighting and accentuating the beauty of the gold metals used in the jewelry. Like many dinner rings with varying forms, the space juxtaposes linear forms with subtle curves in the ceiling along with three large pendant lights which help express the nature of a wedding ring."

Congratulations to Clare Mackey of @mackeydesigngr

Congratulations to Clare Mackey of @mackeydesigngroup for receiving the IDC Value of Design Award (VODA) of Excellence for Innovation in Healthcare Design for ‘The Newly Institute’. ✨

“Once the vision and concept statement were developed, we were able to translate the vision to a plan focusing on procession as a journey of healing. Similar to walking a labyrinth, the abstract journey in the plan layout can lead to deeper personal reflection, a stronger sense of community, a feeling of spiritual well-being and inner reflection, a sense of living in the present and greater creativity and stress reduction.”

A quote from The Future of Design: The Necessary R

A quote from The Future of Design: The Necessary Rise of Inclusive Design presented at #IDCSymposium2022.

IDC’s past president and founder of @decanthropy, Ian Rolston, encouraged dialogue and shared methods to adopt inclusive design approaches within the daily practice of design while seeking to inspire industry professionals to imagine an inclusive world that is powered by your creativity and sense of humanity. As our world becomes smaller and smaller, humanity aspires to provide care, work, and play and live connected experiences that are more meaningful. As designers, it is our responsibility to create considerate environments that support this quality of life for all. This is the Future of Design.
