FLORO DESIGNS PROJECTS
DESIGN THAT GOES BEYOND THE IMAGE
A beautiful room is only part of the job.
Good residential design has to work in real life. It has to make sense spatially, function properly, age well and feel right for the people who live there.
FLORO combines creative direction with practical design experience to shape homes that feel resolved rather than decorated.
We use modern visualization and digital tools to explore ideas faster and communicate them more clearly. But the decisions remain human.
They come from experience, judgment, observation and conversation.
THE FLORO APPROACH
Start with how you want to live.
Style comes later.
Before finishes, furniture or colour, we look at how the home needs to function.
What should feel easier?
What is missing?
What should be preserved?
Where is the opportunity?
That thinking creates the foundation for everything that follows.
The goal is not to impose a signature look on every client.
The goal is to create a home that feels specific to the people living in it.

About Us
THE PROCESS
HUMAN-LED DESIGN
ABOUT EMMANUEL
A clear process makes better design possible.
01 — Discover
We begin with the house, the people and the problem we are trying to solve.
02 — Plan
We develop layouts, priorities, spatial relationships and the overall design direction.
03 — Design
Materials, cabinetry, lighting, fixtures, furnishings and architectural interior details are developed into one coordinated concept.
04 — Visualize
3D visualization helps test ideas and allows you to understand important decisions before construction begins.
05 — Detail
The design is developed into drawings, schedules, specifications and information required by the project team.
06 — Coordinate
FLORO works with the contractor, consultants, fabricators, suppliers and trades to help protect the design intent through construction.
07 — Finish
Furniture, art, lighting and final details bring the project together.
ABOUT EMMANUEL
HUMAN-LED DESIGN
ABOUT EMMANUEL
Experience changes the way you see a room.
FLORO is led by Emmanuel Belliveau, a residential designer whose career has moved through design, construction, television, travel and sustainability.
For more than 15 years, Emmanuel has worked with homeowners to rethink how their spaces look, function and feel.
His television work includes design and lifestyle programming for HGTV, Discovery, CW and WFN, including My Parents' House and World's Greenest Homes.
That experience helped shape an approach to design that is visual but practical, creative but grounded.
Every FLORO project remains principal-led.
You are not handed from a salesperson to a junior designer.
The person discussing the project with you is also deeply involved in designing it.
HUMAN-LED DESIGN

HUMAN-LED DESIGN
Technology is a tool. Judgment is the value.
3D modelling, visualization and AI-assisted exploration help us test ideas faster and communicate them more clearly.
But software does not know your house.
It doesn't understand how morning light enters your kitchen, why a hallway feels wrong, what you refuse to throw away, or how you want your home to feel when friends arrive.
Those decisions still require experience, judgment and conversation.
FLORO uses technology to support the design process, not replace it.
The work remains human-led.
