Irene Jackiw

Associate, NCIDQ, ARIDO

Irene Jackiw brings to KPMB a wealth of expertise and experience in the built environment spanning over two decades. Her passion for creating inclusive and accessible spaces leads to designs that enrich the human experience. 

Recently, she co-led the team designing the interiors for Scotiabank North, a complex multi-phase project that gave one of Canada’s largest financial institutions a new flagship and a new global workplace strategy. Her commitment to understanding the vision and values of clients and users, coupled with her adeptness for developing customized solutions for spaces that are functional and creative, contributed to the project’s success. 

Irene is also co-leading the design of a new corporate building in downtown Toronto and working as a senior interior designer on a portfolio of residential projects for Kindred Works, an organization re-imagining housing in Canada. 

Irene has always been curious how designed spaces influence how we act in them – it’s part of what led her to interior design. Previously, she worked at such firms as TPG Architecture and NORR delivering innovative design solutions for several multidisciplinary projects, from workplace and hospitality interiors to designs for civic buildings. 

Outside the office, she enjoys spontaneous road trips and hiking.

“Good design is inclusive and accessible; it should meet the diverse needs of the people who will use a space.”
