At the IDS12 preview yesterday, we were given a sneak peek at what IDS Toronto has in store this year. There’s SO much to see and from the quick glimpse I saw yesterday it’s worth the time to check out each exhibit!

I fell in love… With the furnishings, decorative arts and especially the lighting!

From vibrant polka dots to bold giraffe prints, here are five agendas that have caught my eye for 2012.
