Ivy Studio runs on the kind of chemistry you only get when four people grow up in the Montreal design world together and decide they’d rather build something of their own.

Since 2018, they’ve been shaping restaurants, cafés, offices, and other public-facing spaces with a mix of bold material choices, tight timelines, and an unusually hands-on approach for a studio their size. Each partner brings a different gear—technical rigour, concept work, brand thinking, project management—which keeps the team moving through a packed slate of commercial projects. Their work leans into spatial identity: colour, texture, and custom pieces built with local artisans, all used to anchor a client’s personality in physical form.
