BIO
Mardi has followed a long and unexpected path towards becoming an accomplished and innovative multidisciplinary designer. His path has taken him through North America, Europe, and the Middle East, and has allowed him to gain experience in virtually every area of design.
Mardi obtained his Bachelor’s and Master’s Degrees in Industrial Design at top-ranked schools, and has had a career that has touched on every aspect of design: from photography to illustration to interior and exterior design to product and furniture design – and everything in between. He has finally found his niche in creating retail design environments, and consulting world-renowned companies in the exciting and indispensible world of Branding Strategy.
A firm believer in the value of sharing one’s knowledge and inspirations, Mardi has taught industrial design studios for the past 15+ years and has been a member of Humber’s Industrial Design faculty since 2006. He is professionally active as a senior designer in a Toronto-based international retail design & branding consultant firm, “Perennial Inc.,” and has developed numerous retail environment solutions for companies such as Loblaw’s Inc, Home Depot Canada, Aisle 43, Royal Bank of Canada, Coca-Cola, Puma, Adidas, Swatch, Bosch, Kenzo and Versace.
