Shaun Mandelbaum
A graduate from the university formerly known as Ryerson’s School of Interior Design in Toronto, Shaun Mandelbaum’s experience commenced long before his entry, with an internship with Brian Gluckstein taking him under his wing. This experience reasserted to him interior design was for him, and he has never looked back since. Upon graduation from university, and through to his retrun to Gluckstein Design, through to work at Umbra, and now with his own independent operation, Shaun’s work is fuelled by a commitment to understanding client needs, unique desires, and maintaining an uncompromising attention to precision and detail in both design and execution.
“I like to think the home, and space in general, has the ability to transform, and elevate, the user; whether it be owner or guest- to a place where not only they are given room to breathe and imagine, but live in a way that in itself is aspirational.”

Work Expands Globally
With work in Toronto, the Muskokas, Florida, Los Angeles and New York, MD is fuelled by a deep love and impassioned motivation towards creating beautiful, highly considered, timeless interiors. From traditional, to classical, to modern. From opulent to restrained and understated, MD believes good design maintains something throughout each aesthetic it strives towards, an enduring spirit that will maintain its longevity for years to come.
Instead of following the rules as pre-described trends might aim to dictate, MD has an inventive approach to its interiors, no project being the same, each being completely unique; a truly boutique approach to interior design.
