Project Name: Yorkville Condo

Location: Toronto, Canada

Date Completed: 2020

Interior Designer: Dochia Interior Design – Lead Designer: Adriana Mot

Construction Company: Den Bosch and Finchley

The composition of Dochia Interior Design’s condo is set like a work of art: in every room there is a dominant element supported by secondary elements. The overall effect is warm and modern, built by ensuring sufficient detail and deliberate distribution of materials. Every room exudes refined urban confidence and visual lines of sight are carefully choreographed. Its ingenious design solution, beauty, and practicality have been combined for a unique interior.

The place has a story told through Dochia Interior Design’s detailing of the built-ins, edges, screens; materials transfer from one into another creating almost an interior sculpture. The rooms are built as a flow separated by bespoke screens, built-ins, and dividers. There is a dynamic experience when moving through space. The materials are combined in a layered way; rich and un-simplistic with an easy effect. This, to Dochia Interior Design, is the most striking feature – the seemingly simple flow made of an intricate physical urban fabric.

Inspired by the dynamic skyline of urban centres, this condo thrives on materiality, texture and geometry. The walls, rich in form and depth, are clad in useful built-ins with a rhythm inspired by the adjacent city’s architecture. These bespoke elements are key to Dochia Interior Design’s concept: the tv built-in that covers the tv, the bookcase that replicates the rhythm of city skyline, the custom sliding door inspired by fragile Japanese paper and the metal that builds the skyscrapers. 

The screened door designed by Dochia Interior Design’s Lead designer Adriana Mot required a lot of attention as there were multiple artisanal details to consider. She uses metal in various components of the project which all had to be carefully integrated: the fireplace next to the tv unit, the sliding barn door with the resin film, even the bookcase has the black elements in hot rolled steel. The roughness of this material combined with the elegance of the execution needed attention to detail and artisanal execution.
