The ShadowBox is Johnson Chou's homage to the passage of time. The brilliant design allows for the evolving experience of light and shade in conjunction with nature and the flow of days and season. The space features AVANI Kitchens' Sola door in a Bright White Matte laquered finish. The serene all white finishes of the kitchen act as a blank canvas for the imagining of future activities. The modern clean lines of the cabinetry are in keeping with the elegant minimal forms and architectural space. A perfect blend of minimalism and understated confidence, SHADOWBOX is a multi award-winning project by architects Johnson Chou Inc. The success of this project became all the more evident in the collection of awards it has garnered. To date, ShadowBox has won the interiors: Residential 2020 AZ Award from Azure magazine, Canadian Interiors Best of Canada, 2020 Value of Design Award by Interior Designers of Canada, 2019 International Design Award and as a Finalist of the 2019 International Interior Design Association. Congratulations to the stellar team at Johnson Chou Inc on all your awards and successes. AVANI Kitchens is proud to have been a part of the ShadowBox Project and we look forward to working with the great tream on future projects.
Johnson Chou Inc. is an internationally recognized inter-disciplinary design practice encompassing architecture, interiors, furniture, industrial and graphic design - a body of work characterized by conceptual explorations of narrative, transformation and multiplicity. While the search for the elemental is the defining aspect of their work, a heightened sense of ritual, metaphor, drama and engagement exemplify the firm’s projects. Award-winning projects include Blowfish Restaurants, ad agency Grip Limited, Headquarters for Red Bull Canada and residences at 10 Bellair and Candy Factory Lofts in Toronto. More recently a presentation centre for condominium development Sixty Colborne received ARIDO’s 2012 “Project of the Year”. Inspired by “narratives of inhabitation”, be it a residence, office or retail space, Chou’s projects are characterized by forms imbued with metaphoric content and richness of detail - objects and spaces that are “portraits” of their clients.
