Issued For Construction ID: Kim Lambert - Kim Lambert Design

Born in Toronto and the eldest of three girls, Kim grew up between an orthopaedic surgeon father and an artist mother, a pairing she credits for both her creative instinct and her exacting standards. She earned an honours degree from Queen's University, where she studied politics and wrote a thesis on peacekeeping, then spent nine months travelling and diving through New Zealand, Australia and Southeast Asia. Early roles in finance at Wood Gundy and in account management at Ogilvy and Mather sharpened her understanding of brand before she returned to school at the International Academy of Design in Toronto, funding her studies herself.

Her design career began at Yabu Pushelberg, where she spent six years working alongside George Yabu and Glenn Pushelberg on global luxury hospitality and retail, including the Italian fashion label Piazza Sempione and a Taj hotel in Mauritius. She later joined Burdifilek before opening her own practice, which she built from a written business plan and ran single handedly for its first five years.

Today Kim leads a team of seven on residential projects across Toronto, Collingwood, Calgary, New York and Florida. Her work has been published in Canada and Europe and in several coffee table books. She is known for restraint, considered materiality, sculptural lighting and a genuine respect for client budgets, and she is currently expanding into furniture design. She has two sons and is a lifelong skier, and traveller.
