Marc Bherer

President and Senior Designer

Marc Bherer brings over twenty years of experience as an interior designer, he stands out for his versatility and his ability to move seamlessly between the roles of creator and manager. Driven by the same passion from the first sketch through to full completion, he has coordinated numerous large-scale projects. He is a member of the Association professionnelle des designers d’intérieur du Québec (APDIQ) and of Interior Designers of Canada (IDC).

Desjardins Bherer is dedicated to high-end residential projects and also takes on certain select commercial projects and multi-residential projects. Over the years the firm has acquired a solid reputation, and has become one of the major professional firms in the field of interior design.

At Desjardins Bherer, the creative process begins with a full understanding of the context of the firm’s intervention, as well as the client’s requirements. The work progresses in the interest of integrating the concerns of the various stakeholders and finding realistic solutions, without sacrificing esthetic concerns.

Fervent admirers of the Bauhaus, the professionals at Desjardins Bherer seek to harmonize form and function in their use of space, with a preference for natural materials. Furthermore, the firm’s work has sidestepped the whims of fashion; their projects stand out for their simplicity, longevity and practicality.

They have won more than twenty national and international awards, notably at the Grands Prix du Design, the APDIQ Awards of Excellence, the Sub-Zero, Wolf and Cove Kitchen Design Contest, the SBID Awards in London, Interior Design magazine’s Best of Year Awards, the DNA Paris Design Awards, among others.
