CBC The Hour

Our Gemini-award winning design created an environment that matched the unique dynamism of host George Strombolopolous. The iconic red chairs were inspired by the work of Ellsworth Kelly for a highly pigmented painted feel, coupled with a sense of movement from floor to ceiling.

For eight seasons, Canadians across the country tuned in to listen and watch Strombo and see which guest take their place in the second red armchair.
