Grand Designs Live in association with BBC Lifestyle and Freeworld Coatings set the captivating scene for the showcase of the innovative IID House presenting the products and talents of our professional, corporate and founding members. The spectacular home was erected in the Interiors Area of the Grand Designs Live exhibition at the Coca Cola Dome from the 21st – 23rd May 2010 and attracted more than 7000 members of public and the interiors industry.

The life size home in which the IID (the South African Institute of the Interior Design Professions) set five of their top designers the task of designing a room. Sponsored by Freeworld Coatings, the IID pushed the envelope of décor innovation by designing the interior of the house - five designers, seven rooms and seven amazing design concepts. The IID House consisted of a lounge, dining area, kitchen, two bedrooms, study and a bathroom.

The Interior Designers  who used their exceptional talents to create the interior of the IID House from scratch were Sharon Nicolaci of Spegash Interiors, Deborah Garth from Deborah Garth Interiors, Krysia Back from Back Interior Design, Leigh-Anne Shillaw of Simple Abundance Projects and Bernard Burger of House of Baxburg.

The IID would like to thank our tremendous designers and sponsors who made this pioneering concept a reality….

  DINING ROOM  
  designed by Deborah Garth of Deborah Garth Interior Design  
     
  Deborah studied interior design at Boston House College School of Design in Johannesburg after an illustrious career in Contemporary Dance. “As a dancer, stage set design always fascinated me and I think this is what led me into Interior Design. The sheer magic of creating from a negative space intrigued me and opened my eyes to an even greater sense of creativity”.

Deborah qualified with honours and in early 1992; Deborah Garth Interior Design was established. Now in its 18th year, Deborah Garth Interior Design continues to succeed, in the commercial world, high impact design and pure efficiency are all important to that caliber of client. Residential is far more subjective because “a variety of emotions are involved and a closeness to my clients becomes essential”.

“Knowing of materials and an understanding of elements which effect these materials are tantamount to an everlasting design as is the appointment of a highly skilled contractor with which to realize the design”.
