Discover your Design ID with casalife and Catherine + Davis at Toronto’s Fall Home Show

TORONTO - Sept. 19, 2013 - PRLog -- Interior spaces reflect personality and lifestyle. When faced with making design decisions for the home, options can be overwhelming because numerous factors influence the choices made. With the goal of minimizing the guesswork, casalife and Catherine + Davis Interior Design invite you to discover your Design ID and see your personality come to life in a series of six vignettes showcasing six distinct personalities at Toronto’s Fall Home Show on October 3-6 at the Better Living Centre. For more information or tickets call 1-877-715-7469 or visit www.fallhomeshow.com.

The original collaboration examines the aspirations of six unique design personalities, educating consumers on what motivates design choices through life’s different stages: First Timer, Modern Family, The Joneses, Bachelor, Modern Hippy and Baby Boomer.

“We are very proud of this collaboration,” says casalife’s Robert Whitfield. “Working with the talented team at Catherine + Davis Interior Design inspired us to use our trademark products in new ways, while learning more about what motivates our clients’ decisions."

Personalizing space is key for the First Timer, as décor choices mark an evolution from dorm room to first apartment. To achieve individualized small-space living, furniture must be sophisticated yet multifunctional. The Symphony Series Sofa Wall Bed in walnut veneer can transform from a twin, double, queen or king size bed into a sofa at moment’s notice, providing value and flexibility. The durable, highly functional product from Inova Space Saving Solutions is a casalife exclusive, making its Canadian debut at the show.

Enter Modern Family, for the design savvy homeowner who wants a current look without breaking the bank. A save vs. splurge philosophy combines investment pieces such as the sleek, anthracite Linea Collection media unit with budget-friendly accessories.

Keeping up with the neighbours is the number one goal for The Joneses, who want the latest and greatest without exception.  Choice statement pieces include oversized ‘Davlin’ wing back dining chairs, while two Penelope Pendants, featuring black parchment shades lined in silver mylar crown the room, in excess as expected.

Well travelled and refined, The Bachelor’s space showcases the curated and collectable –from ‘Catalina’, the Scandinavian designed solid walnut desk with hidden storage to Canadian made ‘Envy’ welded leather chairs.

Reclaimed from vintage sawed lumber with the luster of deep Patina, the ‘Civic’ coffee table finds a perfect home in Modern Hippy, where up-cycled and renewable is the clear message for décor.

Faced with downsizing, never downgrading, the Baby Boomer infuses current trends with the best from past dwellings. Downsizing solutions include recycling smaller pieces that are more easily adaptable, and replacing larger furniture with current designs. Vintage-inspired, the Marlow Collection’s chrome nesting table is a stunning update to any space.

Banishing boring walls in the personalized spaces is Black's wall art that transforms photos into stylish, striking and personal works of art.  In addition to the walls being transformed, Sears Home Services showcases Quickstyle™ Laminate flooring throughout the space.
