    While (or whilst for my UK friends) surfing the web I came across the home of Arriz Hassam and Suzanne Dimma. Suzanne is the editor-in-chief of Canadian House & Home and Arriz is a partner in the design firm 3rd Uncle.

    I absolutely adore theses two photos of their home. The mix, textures and balance are spot on. I must find out more about this obviously creative couple. If any Canadian readers have more info, please do share. I would love to see more of there work and home.

      Try searching tv show. The Style Dept. Suzanne is the star/host/designer of that show. I believe she featured her front entry hall. LP

      Not just anybody can pull off one of those huge ornate mirrors…they do it so well! It doesn’t look fusty in the slightest.

      I believe it’s in a past issue of WISH magazine. Suzanne was design editor before it folded.

      It’s great to see this great Canadian talent getting recognition. She has or had a great TV show here in Canada and used to have a magazine called Wish.

      As several comments pointed out Suzanne used to be the design editor of Wish and just finished the last season of the “style department” see hgtv.ca, she is also a guest expert on CityLine (which has lots of design info) , if you got to this page http://www.cityline.ca/homeandgarden/housetours/

      And find her name, you can see a few of her house tours, including her own kitchen. I am also glad you mentioned her in your blog. Canadian design is great!!!
