Welcome to Inicio, where every space tells a story. Founded in 2023, we draw inspiration from our name—derived from the Latin "initium" meaning "beginning"—to approach each project as a fresh canvas of possibility.


At Inicio, we believe that exceptional design isn't just about aesthetics. it's about creating experiences that inspire and transform. Our "anything but ordinary" philosophy guides us as we break free from conventional design, crafting spaces that blend innovative vision with purposeful functionality.


Every project is a collaborative journey where your aspirations meet our expertise. Whether reimagining commercial spaces or designing hospitality venues, we infuse each detail with intention, ensuring every element serves both form and function. Our goal is to transform your vision into spaces that don't just impress—they inspire.


Ready to create something extraordinary? Let's bring your vision to life.

Owner & Principal Designer

With a decade's immersion in commercial interior design across Montreal and Ottawa, I've channeled my expertise and creative passion into founding Inicio. Here, I blend my multidisciplinary design background with an entrepreneurial vision to craft spaces that tell compelling stories. (Best. Decision. Ever.)


I'm completely hooked on creating spaces that make people go "wow!" From buzzing restaurants to captivating retail spaces, I live for those moments when design magic happens and ordinary spaces transform into extraordinary destinations.


Beyond the design studio, my creativity is fueled by world travels, endless curiosity, and sun-soaked adventures. Each experience becomes a source of inspiration, shaping the way I approach design challenges and envision possibilities.


Because great design isn't just about what you see—it's about how it makes you feel.
