About Us



Crayon Design is a full service interior design firm specializing in the creative. Whether it is a residential project, office, store or exhibition booth, we bring our unique perspective to all our projects and look for solutions that are above and beyond the ordinary.

Crayon Design was founded in 1985 by Cheryl Krismer, and maintains a staff of talented and highly qualified interior designers, rendering artists and project coordinators.

The name was chosen to reflect the collaborative approach we take to our projects. It is not about an individual it is about the team. We also feel that a design firm’s name should reflect a creative endeavour and not sound like a law firm or insurance company… which we are not!

Our work over the last 30 years has included, custom residential, condominiums, cottages and vacation properties, restaurants, retail stores, boutique office spaces, exhibition and trade show booths and marketing centres.

We are a technically focused design firm with intimate construction knowledge, and the ability to blend our creative thoughts with the technical process required to bring them to life. We are trendsetters, not followers, and every project is an opportunity for us to create something new and exciting.

Each project receives the same attention to the process and the finished product. Our attention to details and collaboration with the client and trades is always based on our work ethic: It is our intent to outperform expectations in all aspects of the project.

In 1989 Cheryl Krismer was awarded with the highest distinction available to an Interior Designer in Ontario. She was named the Designer of the Year through ARIDO (Association of Registered Interior Designers of Ontario).
