ARIDO Awards Gala 2024, Ontario’s biggest Interior Design award night was held on October 3rd, at the luxurious Rebel Toronto night club, a stunning venue with breathtaking views of the waterfront and the Toronto skyline. Theme “A Night Under the Ocean: Celebrating Design Excellence in the Depths”, alluded not only to the visual and thematic elements of the ocean but also to the ‘greater depths’ of thought, research, and planning that go into exceptional interior design. It honoured the depth of innovation that interior designers invest in their work, from conceptualization to the final touches that define a space.
For the first time, finalists were spotlighted before the winners were revealed, adding an extra layer of excitement to the celebration. This year, 34 exceptional finalist projects competed across eight categories, showcasing the ingenuity, adaptability, and artistry of Ontario’s interior design community. 17 awe-inspiring projects by Registered Interior Designers earned top honors in categories; CRAFT, GATHER+PLAY, LIVE, LIVE TOGETHER, PRESERVE+RESTORE, and SHOP.
The 2024 ARIDO Awards Gala wasn’t just a night to celebrate interior design excellence—it was a testament to the creativity, resilience, and boundless talent that shape the spaces we live, work, and play in.
