Looking to the Future With IDS20/20

Next year, the Interior Design Show (IDS) in Toronto is going to bring a future-forward vision to its 20th edition of the show with the theme IDS20/20, which will focus on changing the world through design. IDS Toronto will take place at Metro Toronto Convention Center from January 16-19, 2020. We’re excited to once again partner with this premiere show to celebrate and discover design in Canada and abroad with the Maker section and a new edition of the Milk Stand designed by Rollout, the latter which we’re currently recruiting for!

The Maker section, curated by Design Milk and now in its fifth year, will showcase North American designers and small businesses who create their works in small batches with limited distribution. If you’re to discover unique makers creating beautiful designs that are hard to find, this section should be one of your stops at the show.

The IDS Contract section is a new feature of the show that just launched this past year to include design in the workplace, healthcare, retail, hospitality, education, public spaces, government, and more. Since we love seeing how design is changing travel and the workplace, we’ll definitely be checking this out. Alongside this exposition is IDS Conference, an impressive series of 65+ sessions that include keynote speakers, fireside chats, seminars, and workshops dedicated to exploring the business of design and the future of work, living, and technology. See the current line-up of sessions here.

Last but not least, IDS Concept Home will present RESET Home by Hummingbird Hill Homes, VFA Architecture + Design, and Victoria Taylor Landscape Architect. This multi sensory experience will encourage attendees to rethink and reset how we think about the home, exploring how materials, textures, scents, and light play an effect on our senses, mind, and body. It’s an interesting concept we can’t wait to experience.

There is so much more to explore at IDS20/20 and we’re excited to be looking ahead to the future with the theme IDS20/20. Get your tickets today and we’ll see you there!
