KENDALL & Co Design and Decor

When the time comes to revamp your home and to give your living space a second life, look no further than Cabbagetown's Kendall & Co Interior Design. Led by partners in life and in business Kendall Williams and Kevin Kong, the studio offers both home and business owners a fresh take on interior design. "Residential interior design is our bread and butter," Kendall explains, "but many business owners find themselves knocking on our door after having seen the work we did on a home in the neighbourhood. Most of our clients are a stone’s throw away from our office; we enjoy a great reputation in the area."

In addition to helping their customers give life to their visions for their homes and embellish their spaces, Kendall & Co Interior Design created, in 2007, its own retail space. Here, design aficionados and lovers of beautiful objects can shop for rugs, tableware, furniture and décor items for the whole home. "Initially, we sold samples there, but the public reaction was so great we had to move and expand the boutique three times in order to respond to demand for the items we sold," Kendall points out. "We carry items created by local artisans as well as exclusive brands in Canada. Everything is socially-conscious; we don't deal with child labour or human rights violations when it comes to the items we sell. If but a mere doubt arises from a potential product's origin, we stay away from it."
