About
| id-ONE Incid-ONE Inc. is a Toronto based interior design firm that offers a comprehensive range of design and consultation services for any residential project. We consult on both new construction and renovations, with involved project management from initial conception to final installation.
Client’s participation is encouraged at all stages of the design plan, as we understand each space has distinct requirements. Budget, timelines and functionality are unique to each homeowner, and should be defined by their comfort level. The quality of information we gather, along with our firm’s experience, allow us to adhere to these requirements, while recognizing potential problems at an early stage. We also consider long term objectives: future expansion or re-sell value, to ensure we maximize the structural potential of your home.
Our objective is to help clients “id” their space by cultivating their signature style. The success of our company is attributed to how well we blend our creativity with your personality and expectations.
Design Services:
- Initial site inspections, site measurements and conceptual floor plans/elevations
- Furniture layouts, colour schemes and fixed material selections
- Construction drawings, lighting/electrical specifications and custom millwork detailing
- Contractor tendering and project management
- Furniture, fabric, colour and accessory selections
Testimonials
| what clients are saying“Colin completely transformed our old, tired bathroom into a luxurious yet simple French inspired retreat. Colin redesigned the limited space to work around difficult corners, leaving room for a large shower and linen closet. Colin paid attention to every detail, including Crown moulding and wall panelling, modern lighting and fixtures, and beautiful grey and black marble. The result is simple yet elegant – probably one of the nicest bathrooms we have ever seen. We would highly recommend working with Colin, who, in addition to being a talented designer, is a pleasure to deal with.

“After having done a previous renovation without a full time designer, we realized how important it was having someone like Colin on the project. He was able to manage the trades, keep on schedule and in the end deliver a space that really works for us. So much so, we have hired him again to complete our third floor Master Bedroom and En Suite. We would happily recommend Colin to anyone considering a renovation.

“I used to believe hiring an interior designer was an unnecessary expense during an already expensive renovation project. I quickly learned after working with Colin on our first major project that not only was the cost very reasonable but he has actually saved us money due to the lack of any need to make subsequent changes. We all like to think we can pick paint colours, tiles, lighting etc etc for our own home but when you see that colour, are you considering the undertone, how that colour will read to the adjoining rooms, or how it lends to the over feel of the space? Colin provides a level of expertise that simply we do not possess. For example, Colin not only helped selecting our tiles for our kitchen and bathroom projects but he mapped out how the tile should be laid to ensure minimal cuts and full pieces in doorways. The level of detail is really quite extraordinary. Colin also has a great ability to put his clients at ease during an incredibly stressful process. We have used Colin’s services for three separate projects (basement, kitchen and foyer, and entire top floor) and I can say without hesitation, for any further projects our first call will be to Colin.

“Having interviewed a couple of designers, we decided to employ Colin as it was clear from our initial meeting that he was a designer who understood our needs and would work closely with us on all aspects of the design process. Colin has managed to create for us a kid friendly kitchen/family room that fits well with our modern lifestyle.
Victor Krichker & Leigh Chalmers”
“We had a great experience working with Colin. He was able to redesigned our Kitchen and Master En Suite in our new home build that not only complimented the original overall design of the home but completely elevated these spaces to another level that suited our style and functionality desires to a tee. Frankly speaking, we were hesitant to work with a designer at all; Colin really open our eyes to possibilities we would never have conceived on our own (and we’d consider ourselves creative with good taste!) and that we are totally in love with. He was a pleasure to work with and executed everything in a timely fashion.
Alister and Kerry”
